About the empty mail, eh, I see #300599, seems I noticed it before. Amazing how fast time goes though -- guess I really should dedicate some time on hacking on dak, for example during DebCamp. I should follow Joey Hess' advice :)[1], after all, I have 'only' 183 outstanding bugs. About the .orig.tar.gz, it's related to #232730, but subtly different, the root cause is that .orig.tar.gz handling in combination with queues (like the NEW queue) is inadequate, and the current design has way too many corner cases. There are plans to overhaul the queue handling, but it's a bit a long-term project, unfortunately. And the current setup works mostly, except there'll probably always be some corner cases left, esp. with also new features getting implemented (like the security queue overhaul, the proposed-updates queue stuff, etc). You can file a bug on 'dak', but the inadequate .orig.tar.gz handling is a well known issue, so it's not really needed either. --Jeroen [1] http://kitenet.net/~joey/blog/entry/check_your_bugs_day.html -- Jeroen van Wolffelaar [EMAIL PROTECTED] (also for Jabber & MSN; ICQ: 33944357) http://Jeroen.A-Eskwadraat.nl -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
