I think a relevant question here (other than whether Tollef wants co-maintainers and the fact that it's too late to be uploading new versions for wheezy now anyway) is whether the project wants to allow NMUs to fix Hurd issues (not *now*, obviously, but back in April or May). Historically, my impression is that people didn't want the Hurd porters to do that, or for others to do that on their behalf, on the grounds that Hurd support is not yet (sufficiently) important to the project. I admit to personally having also postponed making Hurd-specific fixes until it was convenient for me rather than acting on them right away as I would have for releaseable ports, but I'm trying to get better about that, since I know it's demotivating for the Hurd porters. Looking at the changelog, I wonder if the change in 0.24: - Use /proc/self/mountinfo for bind mount detection; recent distributions symlink /etc/mtab to /proc/self/mounts, losing information we need. is important for us, given that we're now symlinking /etc/mtab to /proc/mounts. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
