Some now defunct alioth addresses are used in the Uploaders: field. This is not explicitly forbidden by policy but certainly something that should be addressed.
To create awareness about that issue, also to provide suggestions on how to resolve this I intend to do a MBF using the following message: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To: sub...@bugs.debian.org Subject: [% package %]: Invalid address [% alioth_list %] in Uploaders: field Package: src:[% package %] Version: [% version %] Severity: normal User: ad...@alioth-lists.debian.net Usertag: alioth-lists-uploaders Dear maintainer of the [% package %] package, as you've probably heard, Debian's alioth services are shutting down. This affects your package [% package %] since the list address [% alioth_list %] used in the Uploaders: field was not transferred to the alioth-lists service that provides a continuation for the lists in the @lists.alioth.debian.org domain. Addresses that were not migrated have been disabled a few days ago. Therefore your package now has an invalid address in the Uploaders: list. Please fix this since when convient. Your options: * Upload another version with that address removed or replaced, or * Migrate the list the new system. This is still possible, please appoint a Debian developer as a list owner first, then contact the alioth lists migration team <ad...@alioth-lists.debian.net> and provide all the necessary information. More information about the new service can be found here: <https://wiki.debian.org/Alioth/MailingListContinuation> The first option is probably suitable only if the address was used just in a small number of packages since this requires an upload for each of them. To our knowledge, the usage count of [% alioth_list %] is [% count %]. The second option is available for a limited time only, by end of May 2018 the most. So if you're interested in going this way, start the process as soon as possible. Regards, Christoph and some alioth-lists maintainers ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Affected packages below, as created by dd-list. The total count is 13 Cheers, Christoph The list was generated using * Debian sid sources, Release file Date: Sat, 05 May 2018 08:30:59 UTC * List of defunct alioth lists <https://salsa.debian.org/alioth-lists-team/ansible/raw/master/roles/mailman/defaults/main.yml> commit 86fefce911c172319fbf61f772a63e6cd2720c6d Author: Dominic Hargreaves <d...@earth.li> Date: Wed Apr 25 20:55:15 2018 +0100 Alastair McKinstry <mckins...@debian.org> openmpi pmix Debian Bluetooth Maintainers <pkg-bluetooth-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org> blueproximity (U) Debian Fonts Task Force <pkg-fonts-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org> fonts-font-awesome Debian Junior Maintainers <debianjr-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org> tuxpaint (U) tuxpaint-config (U) Debian Let's Encrypt Team <letsencrypt-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org> python-cloudflare (U) Debian Open MPI Maintainers <pkg-openmpi-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org> openmpi (U) pmix (U) Debian Perl Group <pkg-perl-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org> libnet-sftp-sftpserver-perl Debian Python Modules Team <python-modules-t...@lists.alioth.debian.org> python-cloudflare Docker Packaging Team <docker-ma...@lists.alioth.debian.org> docker.io (U) golang-github-gorilla-mux (U) golang-gocapability-dev (U) Filesystems Group <filesystems-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org> ecryptfs-utils (U) squashfs-tools (U) Francesco Namuri <france...@namuri.it> blueproximity Friendica Maintenance Team <pkg-friendica-ma...@lists.alioth.debian.org> fonts-font-awesome (U) Harlan Lieberman-Berg <hlieber...@debian.org> python-cloudflare (U) Johan Euphrosine <pro...@google.com> golang-gocapability-dev Jonathan Carter <j...@debian.org> tuxpaint tuxpaint-config Laszlo Boszormenyi (GCS) <g...@debian.org> ecryptfs-utils squashfs-tools Leo Costela <cost...@debian.org> blueproximity (U) Manuel Prinz <man...@debian.org> openmpi (U) Mike Gabriel <sunwea...@debian.org> fonts-font-awesome (U) libnet-sftp-sftpserver-perl (U) Paul Tagliamonte <paul...@debian.org> docker.io (U) pkg-go <pkg-go-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org> golang-github-gorilla-mux Tianon Gravi <admwig...@gmail.com> golang-github-gorilla-mux (U) Tianon Gravi <tia...@debian.org> docker.io (U) Tim Potter <t...@hpe.com> docker.io golang-github-gorilla-mux (U) golang-gocapability-dev (U) Vasudev Kamath <vasu...@copyninja.info> fonts-font-awesome (U) X2Go Packaging Team <pkg-x2go-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org> libnet-sftp-sftpserver-perl (U)
