I haven't seen any spam from plataleas plataleas. By "spamming", do you mean that you got individually addressed messages duplicating their list postings, or something else entirely? > > it > .

I received messages on the topic given by the subject line, starting at https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2019/01/msg00636.html concerning the availability of various kernel versions. They were answered by Dominik George who eventually suggested that the OP check whether their mirror was up to date, and that seemed to be appropriate action. Suddenly Ric Moore chimed in with an accusation of "spamming", under the same subject: https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2019/01/msg00714.html I've already deleted all the substantive posts because I'm not that deeply into package management, but the archives (starting at the msg00636.html address) show the thread just as I saw it. So I'm perplexed. Cheers, David.
