Now you can use all compose sequences and ~/.XCompose with gtk+ (Mozilla, Firefox, Thunderbird, Gedit and so on) and Qt (Kate, ...) immodules of uim as well as XIM. You can download source code and try them from svn://anonsvn.freedesktop.org/svn/uim/trunk/ using svn. Or wait 1.2.0-alpha release.

Because libtool in sid does the right thing when it is configured the proper way. I did try to autoreconf vcdimager and build it, and it works.

Bug#378078: failed sarge install on laptop
Joey Hess wrote: Brent Burton wrote: The log on VC 4 (Alt-F4) shows that a grep for the packages is failing in the "anna" process. Specifically, at line 48 of /usr/lib/debian-installer/retriever/cdrom-retriever is the statement "suite=$RET". $RET is an empty string. Thus, grep is searching for the file "/cdrom/dists//Release" (sic) when the path is actually "/cdrom/dists/sarge/Release". The variable "suite" should be "sarge"; modifying cdrom-retriever to explicitly set "suite=sarge" allows the CD to be recognized as an installation CD, and the install continues. This same CD was used to install a few boxes at work and those went fine. The problem is that your laptop is not reliably reading the CD and the Release file cannot be read. This generally results in the code that tries to determine the suite failing. In etch, this condition is detected and an error displayed: _Description: Error reading Release file The CD-ROM does not seem to contain a valid 'Release' file, or that file could not be read correctly. . You may try to repeat CD-ROM detection but, even if it does succeed the second time, you may experience problems later in the installation. BTW, turning off DMA for the CD may help. Thanks for the response and it's taken me a while to re-check this. I disabled DMA by booting "linux ide=nodma" (2.4 kernel) and confirmed that DMA was disabled for the cdrom (hdc) by checking /proc/ide/hdc/settings. using_dma was zero. The install still fails in the exact same place. At this point, of the 12 reboots of the netinst CD as well as the normal CD installation, it fails in the exact same way on both disks, always. I'll do more searching for similar problems. Thanks again. -Brent -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Bug#378656: set ztics axis is missing (patch)
Package: gnuplot
Version: 4.0.0-2
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
"set ztics axis" succeeds, show ztics shows the expected outcome
but the z tics still get put on the border. on reading the fine print
of "help set xtics" one is told that the axis keyword is a no-op for ztics.
however, there are situations where putting the tics there and nowhere else
is a Good Idea, and to add that code is so very trivial that i've just done
that in the attached patch.
if you do not like this solution, then please make "set ztics axis" fail
very loudly! it really doesn't make sense to accept the option, display it
when asked to with show but simply ignore it when doing the plot.
regards

If you don't > want to use the vera font, don't install it. Unfortunately occasionally packages appear that depend on ttf-bitstream-vera, so it's not possible to not install it (or, rather, it was not possible at some point in time and aptitude won't auto-remove it as long as it's part of depend alternative afterwards). It, however, is possible to not install ttf-dejavu. Other thing is, whether there are any glyphs of questionable quality in dejavu, that exist in bistream vera. Otherwise it's IMHO better to have a glyph of questionable quality, than none at all. Anyway, can you please add an explanation of this situation in README.Debian and changelog.Debian?

AFAICT this is done in xserver-xorg config script but the only logic there is based on the "DI keymap". However, for languages that are used only with the graphical version of DI, the selection of the keymap, namely the console keymap, is mostly irrelevant (for instance, there is obviously no Dzongkha/Bhutan keymap in console-data). This is not only a problem for Dzongkha, actually, but also for all languages which do not have a specific console keyboard layout because it is pointless. signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Seems fine by me, but of course, the real need is not for me as you
might have expected, Denis..:-)
Pema, Tenzin, please feel free to comment. I suggest you use Denis
patch on the "dz" keyboard layout you prove on
dzongkha.sourceforge.net and possibly change the "dz" name to "bt"
there, to avoid possible confusion.
