Bug#1059856: correction to patch
Hello, it seems that the folder /etc/environment.d is not honored. So my suggested patch (involving adding a file there) fails. A workaround is to add the following line: MOZ_USE_XINPUT2=1 to configuration file /etc/environment This method does work. But I ignore if modifying a configuration file is consistent with Debian packaging policies. Thanx! Best, NM
Bug#918211: Acknowledgement (ovito: depends on obsolete libnetcdf11)

Bug#786962: icedove: overzealous address autocompletion: completes to undesired address
Hello Carsten, I'm happy to report that current thunderbird 1:52.9.1-1 is free from this overzealous address autocompletion bug. 786962 can be closed (well, assuming icedove and thunderbird are the same). Thanx a lot! Nick
Bug#902229: reassign rather than close?
Hello, I faced this very same issue today. googling this bug report was extremely useful: I deleted timidity, and now sound is back. Obviously this is no solution, as I (or someone else) will need timidity eventually. I understand this is not a kernel related issue, but it is still a serious issue anyway: timidity may grab the sound card at random moments, making sound unusable. I cannot tell who is actual package (timidity? systemd?) responsible for this nor how this can be corrected (maybe insert an extra delay before the timidity daemon is started?), but it sure requires a fix. So shouldn't this bug be reassigned rather than closed? Thanks! Best, Nick
Bug#851066: flashplugin-nonfree: Download file not available at people.debian.org
I confirm this problem, as reported by Peter Denison. I observed it last week too, but did not report it immediately expecting that the file at http://people.debian.org/~bartm/ would soon be fixed. It has now been missing for about 1 week. This bug can be reproduced equally with update-flashplugin-nonfree --install and with dpkg-reconfigure flashplugin-nonfree Thank you in advance for fixing!

Bug#851246: ovito: missing symbolic links to libQSsh.so and other shared libraries
Package: ovito Version: 2.3.3+dfsg1-2+b5 Severity: grave Tags: patch Justification: renders package unusable Hello, when invoking ovito from the command line it fails with the following message: ovito: error while loading shared libraries: libQSsh.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory ovito fails to start when invoked from the menu as well. Note that the shared object exists: dpkg -S libQSsh.so ovito: /usr/lib/ovito/libQSsh.so Thus, it is just a matter of a missing symbolic link. Indeed ovito works fine after symbolic links are created as follows: ln -s /usr/lib/ovito/libQSsh.so /usr/lib ln -s /usr/lib/ovito/libVideo.so /usr/lib ln -s /usr/lib/ovito/libBase.so /usr/lib [All three of them are needed: after restoring the link to libQSsh.so one finds that ovito wants the the 2 other so's too...] Thank you in advance for fixing!

Bug#786962: icedove: overzealous address autocompletion: completes to undesired address
Hello Carsten! On 05/28/2015 07:37 AM, Carsten Schoenert wrote: Hello Nicola, I tried to reproduce the described behavior of course. But I can't see your issue here on my various installed versions. And I use version from Wheezy, Jessie, testing and experimental. For me it works in *every* version. Your bug report is the first active report that says there is a problem in the autocompletion and as far as I can remember we had never a bug report that was complaining anything about the autocompletion. So it is hard for me to believe that we have a problem here. So I have to ask the question I'm always asking in evetry second report, have you tried to disable all extensions and retune the behavior? Start Icedove from a terminal by 'icedove -safe-mode', are there any useful output to see in the terminal? OK, I did as you suggest: I get the following message in the terminal: (process:30699): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_slice_set_config: assertion 'sys_page_size == 0' failed Then a small dialog opens: I tick no options which would permanently change settings, and click to Continue in safe mode. icedove starts ok, although with a window size different from usual. I tested the autocompletion problem, and it is still present as detailed in my report. Did this happen if you start with a new profile? Yes. I closed icedove, moved folder .icedove to a different name. Then restarted icedove in safe mode as above. It asked me to setup, which I did. I then created a single entry foo@test.ee in the otherwise empty address book. I then clicked on Write to created a new message. Started to type b...@test.ee in the address slot, and at any typing stage icedove would propose the completion foo@test.ee Even if I did not accept the suggestion, icedove would replace b...@test.ee with foo@test.ee. And even when I went back to correct the address to b...@test.ee , as soon as I hit return or tab or click somewhere else, the address would go back to foo@test.ee As a complement of information, I note that in the Icedove Preferences, under the Addressing tab, the option When addressing messages, look for matching entries in: Local Address Books - is ticked. Directory Server - is unticked As an extra complement of information, I confirm that at least the OpenPGP add on is not working now that I run icedove in safe mode. If it did work the way you write above you should close this bug, rather than changing its severity. No, changing the severity is something completely different than closing a report. So why should I close the report? What's important for? I picked up the entry from https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#severities important a bug which has a major effect on the usability of a package, without rendering it completely unusable to everyone. For me there is no major effect like you can't send anything or absolutely not use the adressbook or configure new accounts, so your bug is right now nothing more than the other normal bugs.

You have two posibilities, just type the email adress further you want to use and ignore the suggestions. Or select the correct email adress by the mouse or cursor. If you want to use a adress you never have used before you have to type the whole adress. I did type the whole address.

I see no way to avoid/bypass the suggestion. Please do try to reproduce the foo/bar example I make in my original message. So I can't really see a regression here. The logic is trying to find a suitable adress and this also with a focus an the most used adress. I understand and like the logic of autocompletion, as long as it allows a choice not to use its suggestion... I can't see why this autocompletion is rendering Icedove mostly unusable so I set the severity back to normal.

Hello, I confirm this bug in xfig/1:3.2.5.c-3 on a standard up-to-date jessie (pc). I wish to add that: 1) xfig crashes silently (segfaults) when loading .fig files created previously, as soon as they contain at least one line with dot-dashed style; 2) any of the LineStyles combining both dashes and dots induces crashes, while the solid and pure dots or pure dashes LineStyles are fine; 3) I didn't observe this bug in the previous version, so it should be easy to track down.

Bug#729839: network-manager: forgets previously connected network upon sleep/reboot
Package: network-manager Version: 0.9.8.0-5 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, I have multiple configurations for both wireless and wired interfaces: since upgrading to jessie, every time my pc reboots or wakes up from sleep it has forgotten which one of them was the last connected network, and tries to connect a random (usually incorrect) one. The user has then to select the proper connection manually. Otherwise the computer would usually remain disconnected from the net. This is a regression compared to the wheezy version 0.9.4.1-5. I think this is unrelated to #632850 (now the ethernet adapter is recognized correctly, just a wrong configuration is applied to it) #692004 (different/opposite behavior) The maintainer may wish to raise the severity, as in certain cases this may lead to data loss, e.g. on a computer whose display/graphic card fails. With the previous correct behavior, user could have her computer connect automatically to the last used wireless or wired network and access her data through the net. The current behavior would instead leave the machine disconnected and data unretriavable (without physically removing pieces of hardware such as the HD). Thank you in advance for fixing!

Bug#705605: libreoffice-impress: Export to .pptx screws up several formattings
Confirmed (in 4.0.3 rc1, but that shouldn't be worse than the 4.0.2 which is in experimental, so..). Now the question is whether the pptx is screwed up or LO re-imports it badly. I also assume the first, but... I made a little inquiry on this question. I asked a windows-addicted friend, running Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2007 (12.0.4518.1014) MSO (12.0.4518.1014) to open the .pptx generated by libreoffice as above, and he tells me that PowerPoint complanins that it cannot open the file because it is apparently damaged. (The .ppt opens fine instead.) So yes indeed the .pptx is screwed up. Maybe for wheezy someone might modify the Save As menu of all possible File formats, adding something like (Experimental) before Microsoft PowerPoint 2007/2010 XML (.pptx), so that users do not have excessive expectations. A little patch for a man, one giant leap for userkind. ;-) Thank you for your kind attention Rene, ciao, Nick -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#674819: indeed it is a regression
I used gimp several times since the current release came out, but I still find this export thing so annoying. The worst is the final message about unsaved changes: it trains users to ignore such kind of message and automatically discard changes, risking to lose data if forgetting to export before. I understand that gimp developers want to push the gimp format, but this export thing is definitely the wrong way to. And people around are not ready to convert all their jpg collections anyway... Of course all this has nothing to do with debian, but if enough such complaints pass upstream, maybe the developers would think better for next release. Thanx!

I will remove the nvidia driver and retest everything under nouveau. However I have little hope that it will work, since prior to installing nvidia I had tested nouveau extensively: suspend-resume had never worked under the open-source driver. This bug is quite likely related to the graphic card restarting into a broken state, and this of course due to the nvidia driver, except it used to work fine with the previous kernel revision, so apparently it is some change in the kernel which causes a regression in this interaction. If anything interesting turns out with the nouveau driver, I'll report it here. Best, Nick -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

At this point the laptop was apparently asleep, with the slowly flashing power led, off vents, and no network connectivity from outside. After a few secs (Aug 3 13:29:33) I tried to resume the computer by briefly pressing the power button. At this point the PC was up and accessible from the net, so I could login and retrieve the syslog. However the screen was black but for a flashing white line in the left top corner. No possibility to switch screen (ctr-alt-FN). After less than a minute (Aug 3 13:30:18) the pc starts beeping, and sends all logged terminals frequent kernel messages of the type seen at the end of the attached syslog. It is possible to still access the pc from the net. I could even reboot it, although occasionally it locks and the power button must be pressed to regain control. The bug is reproducible at will. This bug recalls 680707, but according to Jonathan Nieder it is different, so I'm filling a separate report. Thanx!

Bug#606231: prboom: cannot select joystick buttons beyond 4
Package: prboom Version: 2:2.5.0+dfsg1-5 Severity: minor Once the joystick is enabled, in the keyboard setup one can select the joystick buttons up to button 4 for actions. In fact, most modern joystick/gamepads have far more than 4 (e.g. mine has 12), but these sdl events are just ignored. Please correct this and allow also joystick events above button 4 to be assignable to game controls. In particular the left and right strife should be assignable to the joystick, not just the keyboard. The simple strife modifier of left/right turn is much less practical. More generally, I think that the user should be allowed to map any keyboard event of her/his liking to a gamepad button. Otherwise the joystick is supported beautifullysmoothly, thanx!

Bug#573429: installation-reports: some characters screwed up in menus + windoze detected but omitted from grub menu
Otavio Salvador wrote:
forcemerge 573429 567980
thanks
Hello,
I re-tested debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso as of today Aug 30, 2010.
1) characters meant for menu boundaries were corrupt, and printed
funny-looking ascii characters. Everything was usable, but certainly not
as intended by those who programmed the installer.
Please see if you can reproduce it using current daily images and
provide a screenshot or picture of it so we can see what you mean by
corrupt. In meanwhile I will assume it is working fine.
The problem is gone, menus look fine now.
2) the network detection seems a regression from the lenny installer I tried
several months ago. I do not use dhcp, so I specify the network manually.
The old lenny installer was happy with the network number, gateway, and
DNS. The installer then discovered the computer name and domain
automatically. This new squeeze installer needs all this info by hand.
Please in case you can reproduce it using latest dailies elaborate it
a bit more because I didn't figure out what you meant.
When you connect to a network using not DHCP but a static IP, it is
sufficient for the installer to know
1) the IP of the computer to be installed
2) the gateway to connect to the network
3) the DHCP to resolve hosts.
Everything else should be deduced by interrogating the network.
Indeed the lennny installer does not ask for any other information.
The new squeeze installer instead then proceeds to ask for:
4) computer name
5) domain name
These last 2 steps should be removed as unnecessary, and restore lenny
installer's name and domain resolution from the the network.
(I guess, by calling the host commandline program with
host $IP | awk '{print $NF}'
[where $IP holds the static IP just provided by the user],
or something equivalent in other scripting languages).
3) the installer detected correctly the windoze OS, and made me assume that
it would be included it in the grub initial menu. It wasn't.
Post installation I had to run update-grub manually, then the menu did
include windoze as expected.
I can confirm this issue. I am reassigning it to grub-installer since
it needs to be fixed there.
OK.
Thanks a lot by reporting it.
Not at all, I'm a proud debian user, and making debian better and more
friendly is an important task.
Thank you, who do the programming effort!
Best,
Nick

Bug#574614: It's a bug of a nvidia related package, I think
Yes, it mostly is a bug of the nvidia driver package, but there is also a m-a related part, which expects fixing. Indeed the solution suggested by Marco Mattiolo worked for me. I installed nvidia-kernel-dkms from sid. This introduced me to the ease of dkms, which makes m-a much less useful than it used to be. For this specific install, I also needed to create a /etc/X11/xorg.conf file with the following contents: Section Device Identifier Default screen Driver nvidia EndSection Philosophical observation: Probably stable should go for the dkms scheme for non-free drivers of this sort, that would be even better than the pre-compiled package, and remain more compatible with future testing.

Bug#428030: fvwm: cursor disappears when secondlife client is running
I have been unable to reproduce this (I do not have a second life client, and the software is non-free), I have not seen this behaviour elsewhere, and I wonder if this still happens with newer versions of fvwm. In any case, unless tehre is a means of reproducing this with, I think that the problem is isolated, and would be hard to solve. The bug does not occur any more with the combination of the current stable release of fvwm 1:2.5.26-1 and the current SecondLife client 1.23.4.123523 I suggest we close it. Thanx!

Bug#475112: more info: predictable way to reproduce crash
Hello, I found a predictable and reproducible way to obtain this X crash... admittedly running a non-debian piece of software. I installed the current linux version 1.22.11.113941 of the Secondlife client from http://secondlife.com/support/downloads.php , logged to my Secondlife account, and tried to change the graphics resolution in Edit-Preferences. X crashes all the times within 2 seconds. As in my previous post, it is impossible to restart X afterwards. One can just log into the textual console and reboot the machine. I experienced occasional crashes of the Secondlife client in the past, but never induced a full crash of X. The error log is the usual Error in I830WaitLpRing(), timeout for 2 seconds pgetbl_ctl: 0x0001 getbl_err: 0x ipeir: 0x iphdr: 0x7fd7 LP ring tail: 0x36f0 head: 0x3714 len: 0x0001f001 start 0x I hope this helps, all the best, Nick -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#475112: also found in 2:2.3.2-2+lenny6
Hello, I also found this bug in 2:2.3.2-2+lenny6 running on my intel graphics G33 chipset. I wish to add 2 possibly useful pieces of information: - this week this crash occurred twice in 3 days; before I never had it, and my X session lasted for at least 4 months without a glimpse. So maybe it is related to some late update of lenny. - the second crash was occasionated by pressing return as I filled a form in iceweasel - most importantly: after these crashes X would *not be able to start up* any more, the system remains in a non-X status. Even if I killed gdm, entered a console session and entered startx, the screen would flash a few times in the attempt to switch to graphical mode, but eventually failed with the same error in the X log: Error in I830WaitLpRing(), timeout for 2 seconds pgetbl_ctl: 0x0001 getbl_err: 0x ipeir: 0x iphdr: 0x0211 LP ring tail: 0x30b0 head: 0x30d4 len: 0x0001f001 start 0x eir: 0x esr: 0x emr: 0x instdone: 0xfa41 instpm: 0x memmode: 0x0306 instps: 0x80007826 hwstam: 0xfffe ier: 0x0002 imr: 0x iir: 0x00c0 Ring at virtual 0xa79af000 head 0x30d4 tail 0x30b0 count 32759 3054: 03cc2000 3058: 000400f0 - I tried repeatedly to restart X, to no success: to resume a normal operation mode, I had to reboot my machine. If needed, I could send the complete logs, but they look very similar to those reported in this bug (and other similar bugs). Thanx for any effort to a fix!

Bug#448809: galeon: found in Galeon 2.0.6-2+b1
Package: galeon Version: 2.0.6-2+b1 Followup-For: Bug #448809 Hi, as ariana is not responding, let me add a word on this: Indeed, as one navigates, the memory usage of galeon piles up to larger and larger values (easily in eccess of 100 MB after visiting 4 or 5 news sites such as cnn.com), and never cleans up to the same initial small value when closing all tabs and reverting to a single blank page (about:blank). I find the same behavior with iceape (apparently not with firefox), though. I never used valgrind, so I suggest it is more efficient if you Loic could test it yourself on your own debian system. Or ariana and I are the only ones who reproduce this behavior?

Bug#75403: stiil exists also in latest unstable
Package: gnuplot Found 75403 4.2.4-1 Found 75403 4.2.2-1.2 Severity: serious Justification: could cause data loss Stop Package: texlive-fonts-extra Version: 2007.dfsg.4-1 Severity: serious Justification: nosell license Hello, I find that this bug has not been fixed in 4.2.4-1 , as present in unstable. Also it remains open in the current stable 4.0.0-5 (of course: same version!) and testing 4.2.2-1.2 snapshots. I'm trying to escalate the severity of this bug since it really can cause data loss while typing unseen potentially harmful commands on an unreadable line. Just to repeat my example of 30 May 2007: Open gnuplot and type a long line (exceeding the terminal width), then press left arrow long enough to reach (without knowing) the beginning of the line (or press ctrl-a). Then type !rm * (with a space character after the *): Nothing understandable is visible on the screen. If you now press enter this removes all files in the current directory without you seeing it coming. Many similar examples could be cooked up, so I guess this really is serious and should be fixed. This bug with a hinted solution was forwarded upstream on 21 Aug 2006 : I can't believe these guys do not give a damn about the whole Debian community and have not fixed it in over 2 years! There are at least 7674 users of gnuplot around (which run popularity-contest), plus all the Ubuntu users. Is there anything we could do to get this thing fixed at last?

Unfortunately it fails on installing grub. It just says it failed without any further elaboration, and I'm afraid this would be a final error for a non-expert user. I also tried to install lilo and grub2, which also both fail. So, I completed the installation without bootloader, and rebooted using the installer in rescue mode. I opened a shell with /dev/hda4 mounted as / . I then aptitude install grub /usr/sbin/grub-install /dev/hda Thus I got a bootable pc. Thus, I suspect that something goes wrong with the installer running something like /usr/sbin/grub-install --root-directory=/target /dev/... but have no idea whether it is a misbehavior of grub or of the installer. I booted into debian, and proceeded to select the tasks, thus correcting the other problem of the installer: it only proposes a list with the Standard System in the initial installation. Everything works fine then, without any need of extra tuning, including audio, xorg at the correct native screen resolution. Cute! Keep up the good work!

Bug#428030: fvwm: cursor disappears when secondlife client is running
Subject: fvwm: cursor disappears when secondlife client is running Package: fvwm Version: 1:2.5.18-3 Severity: normal *** Please type your report below this line *** Hello, when I run the secondlife client, now SecondLife_i686_1_16_0_6 just downloaded from secondlife.com, within fvwm (stable version), the cursor blinks and almost disappears when focusing outside the SL client window. The cursor disappears e.g. on xterm's, on the fvwm menus and on the background. The ghost cursor is still working propertly: one can select text in xterm and click on fvwm buttons all right, but working without actually seeing the mouse becomes pretty annoying... More info: 1- the problem occurs regardless of the way (keyboard/mouse/Alt-Tab) employed to move the focus away from the SL client; 2- the problem occurs equally for other windows in the same and in other virtual desktop screens; 3- my .fvwm2rc policy is: ColormapFocus FollowsMouse 4- also, the keyboard reacts rather slowly under these ghost-mouse conditions; 5- the problem ceases upon exiting from the SL client, and re-occurs when that one is started again; 6- no such problems occurs under gnome. I understand that the SL client may not be fully compliant with some X11/unix standard, but I believe no WM should be tricked by specific running programs into sabotaging other running programs, so maybe this should be classified as important. Maybe Manoj (or someone else out there) could give it a try with the current testing fvwm release, or otherwise I'll do it when I find time to upgrade.

Bug#319994: reopen Bug#319994 (Well reproducible also in the latest version)
Dear Cyril, I upgraded to the latest 4.2.0-3: dpkg -l gnuplot Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed |/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name VersionDescription +++-==-==- ii gnuplot4.2.0-3A command-line driven interactive plotting p in my etch box (that required upgrading some libc, locales and a few other chain dependencies). I'm afraid this bug is perfectly reproducible. For example, type the following: mkdir test cd test echo 1 2\n3 4 pippo gnuplot and then, at the gnuplot command line, type p'piTAB As you press TAB, you expect that the line is completed to p'pippo (as in most linux distributions / unix builds), but the debian gnuplot does nothing. Tried both within xterm and gnome-terminal: this has nothing to do with an interaction with the terminal. So, sorry but once again this bug is not fixed: please do the little test above before next release, to make sure this bug is really fixed. Similarly, #75403 is still open (I'll send a message regarding that one too). Instead I can certify that #384919 was indeed fixed.

Bug#75403: reopen Bug#75403 (Broken in latest unstable, as well as in stable)
package gnuplot found 75403 4.2.0-3 thanks Hello, this bug is still open for both 4.2.0-3 and the stable snapshot 4.0.0-5. I suspect it is related to #319994: please read specifically the info provided by Chali Ahmul M.P.U [EMAIL PROTECTED] about readline, in http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=319994 To test this bug, just open a terminal (xterm, gnome-terminal or whatever), enter gnuplot and type any sequence of characters which exceeds the line length, so that the line folds to the next. Then press left arrow and go back through the typed line. All is fine until you reach the left border of the screen, then you loose track of the cursor, which is indeed somewhere along the command line, but you don't know where. This can be very annoying and can lead to incorrect command lines, and even to undesired DATA LOSS, in unlucky cases. Consider for example you type a long line, then you press left arrow long enough to reach (without knowing) the beginning of the line. Then you type !rm * (with a space character after the *) and press enter. Regardless of the contents of the rest of the long line, this would remove all files in the current directory without you seeing beforehand. I admit this is a bit extreme, but other data loss could occur with unwanted and unseen typing, resulting in a line starting with: !cat VeryPreciousAndExpensiveFile So I also propose to increase the severity to grave, but I leave this up to you Cyril.

Bug#415638: maybe broken install?
Hello, apparently the module gnuplot_x11 is built correctly in /build/buildd/gnuplot-4.2.0/src but it is then not moved into its supposed final destination /usr/lib/gnuplot I know very little of ia64, and have no access to a ia64 machine to experiment here, but for anybody even vaguely familiar with that architecture this should be an easy fix: either /usr/lib/gnuplot does not make sense under ia64 or it should be easy to figure out why the line /usr/bin/install -c 'gnuplot_x11' '/build/buildd/gnuplot-4.2.0/debian/tmp/usr/lib/gnuplot/gnuplot_x11' (see i386 log http://experimental.debian.net/build.php?pkg=gnuplotver=4.2.0-2arch=kfreebsd-i386file=log) was not executed for ia64. We gnuplot users out here are very much looking forward to gnuplot 4.2.0-1 entering unstable/testing, especially since it (hopefully) holds a fix of ugly bug #319994. Please Cyril could you spare a little of your precious time and manage to squash this damn serious #415638 bug, so that we can finally upgrade and be as happy debian gnuplotters as fedora/suse gnuplotters are?

My company's spam-killer has moved to /dev/null as many as 4512 messages to my address since Jan 8 2007, i.e. an average 61/day. About 3 to 6 more come through and I need to delete myself every day. Still, Paul Johnson Don Armstrong are perfecly right with wontfix. It's no solution to pretend that simple tricks such as those suggested here could protect e-mail addresses in any durable way.

Bug#415287: quick comment
What's the purpose of this bug that isn't already achieved by #413469? Cheers, Julien, #413469 was correctly downgraded to wishlist, since that bug is only about The package is outdated, i.e. the developer wished to push a fresher snapshot into etch, which is deep frozen and cannot accept that. The articulate discussion in #413469 ended with ion3 being removed from etch, since the developer (Tuomo) felt only ion2 belongs to a stable distribution. Development snapshots of ion3 are included in unstable and experimental (see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/version.cgi?package=ion3 ), so ion3 users can choose between use a fresh snapshot in less stable distributions or the oldish ion2 (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/version.cgi?package=ion2 ). If I may comment as an unconcerned debian longtime aficionado, I feel this solution is suboptimal to users, and also to upstream. A developer should either not care or (more likely) be proud that a random development snapshot makes its way into debian stable megafreeze, even though he/she has released much fresher versions: these are accessible to anybody who cares anyway. Concerns for bug tracking effort devoted to an old version does not seem too serious: if I was in Tuomo's place, I'd leave to the debian package maintainer the task of fighting the bugs of a old piece of software until he/she gets bored enough to prefer to upgrade to a newer better version. I hope this upstream/distribution competitive pattern remains an isolated example. If it spreads, it has a potentiality of damaging linux in general and debian in particular.

Severity: normal Justification: refers to confusing name and likely non-existing issue I suggest that Sect. 5.7 Security status of mozilla products be removed, since mozilla is now just transition package to iceape, see http://packages.debian.org/unstable/web/mozilla If the problems it describes still apply to iceape, then s/mozilla/iceape/g Best, Nick -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#219088: this is a very good idea!
Hello, many people around find the page http://bugs.debian.org/release-critical/ very useful to track the progress of testing-stable. I strongly support Javier's proposal to add a most desirable new link, pointing to a list of the bugs concerning the next release (excluding ignored and not-in-testing). Apparently Javier even includes a script to automatize this, but probably one could just tune the script generating the list for All putting there the if's used to generate the number written above the plot, so it must be a matter of 15 mins programming for those who wrote the scripts and know where to look at.

Bug#362072: addition on the effect of OK button
Hello, indeed I agree with Mike that network-admin should allow some more in-depth setting-up, and that it often has a sleepy behavior. I'd like to add that when one switches between different Locations, network-admin immediately acts and starts doing the network reconfiguration. After some time (sometimes seconds, sometimes minutes) the net is up fully functional. If now one presses the OK button, the whole reconfiguration starts all over: net is switched off and on and reconfigured again. Net ends up working again, but what's the need of all this redoing something which was done successfully already? All the best and keep up the great work!

For example, type the following: mkdir test cd test echo 1 2\n3 4 pippo gnuplot and then, at the gnuplot command line, type p'piTAB As you TAB, you expect that the line is completed to p'pippo (as in most linux distributions / unix builds), but the debian gnuplot does nothing.

Bug#360893: acknowledged by developer (Re: Bug#360893: udev takes too long to create /dev/hda... and system drops to a shell)
try to regnerate your initramfs with latest: update-initramfs -u I did: no change, even with initramfs-tool 0.60 well that will only update newest kernel so to update the 2.6.15, that would have to be specified with -k version aka update-initramfs -u -k 2.6.15-1-686 Hmm, first, before the kernel upgrade I did the suggested update-initramfs -u -k 2.6.15-1-686, and tried to reboot with no success. Next I did the kernel upgrade to 2.6.16, did not bother to update-initramfs -u, and this one worked fine. thanks for the feedback, closing bug report.

Bug#360893: udev takes too long to create /dev/hda... and system drops to a shell
could you try out linux-image-2.6-$flavour from unstable if that works for you. Yes, I installed linux-image-2.6.16-1.686 and this one boots fine, no prob. hmm did you check from the shell if udevd is running with ps aux? Yes, back when I booted 2.6.15 within the shell, from ps aux | grep udev I got the following: 837 0 656 S udevd --daemon try to regnerate your initramfs with latest: update-initramfs -u I did: no change, even with initramfs-tool 0.60 thanks for your bug report, unfortunately i can pinpoint from the give info the cause. Eventually, it seems this one is a 2.6.15 kernel bug rather than initramfs-tool's. Right now, I feel very happy with my new 2.6.16-1.686 As long as it proves itself stable...

Bug#360893: udev takes too long to create /dev/hda... and system drops to a shell
sure the rescue shell can't fix itself magically ;) Well, if you read my initial bug post, you see that before the upgrade it used to sort of fix itself up after a while. One could eventually boot 2.6.15 bu exiting the shell. Not any more. please post from the busybox shell: * the last line of messages you see * cat /proc/cmdline * cat /proc/modules before rebooting check that fstype recognises your root fs: # /usr/lib/klibc/bin/fstype /dev/hda1 I attach a file with all the required infos. The boot process makes a long pause (1-2 mins) after it writes Begin: Waiting for root file system... ... and then it quickly comes out with the ALERT and BusyBox lines. I hope that helps.

Bug#360893: udev takes too long to create /dev/hda... and system drops to a shell
The kernel 2.6.8-2-686 cannot use the current udev but boots fine, except that X does not start, since it finds no mouse. sure there you would need to load mousedev by hand or have it listed in /etc/modules.. The first option works fine, the second option lets X come up, but the mouse is not responding. which version of initramfs-tools do you use? aka output of: dpkg -l initramfs-tools ii initramfs-tool 0.53c tools for generating an initramfs please try out the unstable initramfs-tools version 0.59b I did: complete disaster. After the udev checks, the scrips come up with a message Waiting for the root filesystem or something of that kind. Except that, afterwards, the /dev/hd* entries are never generated. Of course, after a few minutes the scripts drop out to a shell, but further waiting/exiting does not help. I left the computer up all night, with no success. So, I decided I had better go back to initramfs-tool 0.53c , but that also wouldn't help! I even forced a purge of both udev and initramfs-tool and reinstalled them, but the unbootability of kernel 2.6.15 persists! Also, the same yesterday unseen message about Waiting... pops up. This is extramely surprising, as I checked that I have successfully downgraded to ii initramfs-tools 0.53c tools for generating an initramfs Indeed, by booting on 2.6.8, when I grep Wait /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/* I get nothing. However, when my 2.6.15 boot fails and I drop to the shell, instead I see that /scripts/local includes that message Waiting It goes as if the damn initramfs-tools 0.59b got somewhere hidden in the system and comes back, with very bad effects...

Bug#360893: udev takes too long to create /dev/hda... and system drops to a shell
Package: udev Version: 0.088-2 Severity: normal *** Please type your report below this line *** Hi, after a regular upgrade to the present version of udev a new problem occurs: udev claims it discovers the hardware correctly and in particular gives out some messages about my Maxtor, about calling it hda, hda1, hda2 etc. Then, after hanging there for a while, the initialization scripts say they cannot find /dev/hda1 (which is supposed to be mounted as root) and drop to a shell. Indeed from there ls /dev/hd* gives nothing for a couple of minutes. After that, a message udevd-event about find_free_number: %e is deprecated... , such as reported in #359978 #357741, pops up. Only now the correct /dev/hd... are created. After this, if I do nothing and exit from the shell, the system completes its normal boot. I read Marco's initial message and was doubtful about the appropriateness of this bug report, but eventually I thought that I was running udev before on the same machine with no problem, and never changed any setup manually. So there is likely some real bug in either udev or in its interaction with the boot scripts. Let me know if more hardware/configuration details are needed.

Bug#293573: discover: Does not detect my audio card (es1371 on a 686)
Package: discover Version: 2.0.6-3 Severity: normal *** Please type your report below this line *** The good old discover 1.5.1 reported correctly my es1371 sound card. Now I upgraded to discover 2, and after a reboot, the sound card died. It is not an hardware failure, since a knoppix reboot finds perfectly working sound. Presently: $ discover sound discover: Bus not found. $ By the way, the packaging system has some trouble with discover: In upgrading to discover 2, it keeps libdiscover1 1.5.?, which is then proposed for upgrade to 1.7.?. At this point, it conflicts with package discover and a blind acceptance of the dependencies enforcement proposed by aptitude leads to removal of discover... Thanx!
