Bug#496377: The possibility of attack with the help of symlinks in some Debian packages

Package: lazarus-src
Severity: grave

Hi, maintainer!

This message about the error concerns a few packages  at  once.   I've
tested all the packages (for Lenny) on my Debian mirror.  All  scripts
of packages (marked as executable) were tested.

In some packages I've discovered scripts with errors which may be used
by a user for damaging important system files or user's files.

For example if a script uses in its work a temp file which is  created
in /tmp directory, then every user can create symlink  with  the  same
name in this directory in order to  destroy  or  rewrite  some  system
or user file.  Symlink attack may also  lead  not  only  to  the  data
desctruction but to denial of service as well.

Even if you create files or directories with help of function 'RANDOM'
or pid(), then your system is not protected. Attacker can create many
symlinks in order to destroy your data or create 'denial  of  service'
for your package scripts.

Even if you make rm(dir) for files/directories, then  your  system  is
not protected. Attacker can permanently create symlinks.

This list is created with the help of script.  This list is sorted  by
hand. Howewer in some cases mistake is possible.

Please, Be understanding to possible mistakes. :)

I set Severity into grave for this bug. The table of discovered

Have you ever run imms as a plugin in audacious? Does directory .imms exist?

Bug#496415: The possibility of attack with the help of symlinks in some Debian packages

2008-08-24 Thread Dmitry E. Oboukhov
Package: tiger
Severity: grave

Hi, maintainer!

This message about the error concerns a few packages  at  once.   I've
tested all the packages (for Lenny) on my Debian mirror.  All  scripts
of packages (marked as executable) were tested.

In some packages I've discovered scripts with errors which may be used
by a user for damaging important system files or user's files.

For example if a script uses in its work a temp file which is  created
in /tmp directory, then every user can create symlink  with  the  same
name in this directory in order to  destroy  or  rewrite  some  system
or user file.  Symlink attack may also  lead  not  only  to  the  data
desctruction but to denial of service as well.

Even if you create files or directories with help of function 'RANDOM'
or pid(), then your system is not protected. Attacker can create many
symlinks in order to destroy your data or create 'denial  of  service'
for your package scripts.

Even if you make rm(dir) for files/directories, then  your  system  is
not protected. Attacker can permanently create symlinks.

This list is created with the help of script.  This list is sorted  by

Bug#496428: The possibility of attack with the help of symlinks in some Debian packages

2008-08-24 Thread Dmitry E. Oboukhov
Package: emacs-jabber
Severity: grave

Hi, maintainer!

This message about the error concerns a few packages  at  once.   I've
tested all the packages (for Lenny) on my Debian mirror.  All  scripts
of packages (marked as executable) were tested.

In some packages I've discovered scripts with errors which may be used
by a user for damaging important system files or user's files.

For example if a script uses in its work a temp file which is  created
in /tmp directory, then every user can create symlink  with  the  same
name in this directory in order to  destroy  or  rewrite  some  system
or user file.  Symlink attack may also  lead  not  only  to  the  data
desctruction but to denial of service as well.

Even if you create files or directories with help of function 'RANDOM'
or pid(), then your system is not protected. Attacker can create many
symlinks in order to destroy your data or create 'denial  of  service'
for your package scripts.

Even if you make rm(dir) for files/directories, then  your  system  is
not protected. Attacker can permanently create symlinks.

This list is created with the help of script.  This list is sorted  by
hand. Howewer in some cases mistake is possible.

Please, Be understanding to possible mistakes. :)

I set Severity into grave for this bug. The table of discovered
problems is below.

Bug#496407: The possibility of attack with the help of symlinks in some Debian packages

2008-08-24 Thread Dmitry E. Oboukhov
Package: sng
Severity: grave

Hi, maintainer!

This message about the error concerns a few packages  at  once.   I've
tested all the packages (for Lenny) on my Debian mirror.  All  scripts
of packages (marked as executable) were tested.

In some packages I've discovered scripts with errors which may be used
by a user for damaging important system files or user's files.

For example if a script uses in its work a temp file which is  created
in /tmp directory, then every user can create symlink  with  the  same
name in this directory in order to  destroy  or  rewrite  some  system
or user file.  Symlink attack may also  lead  not  only  to  the  data
desctruction but to denial of service as well.

Even if you create files or directories with help of function 'RANDOM'
or pid(), then your system is not protected. Attacker can create many
symlinks in order to destroy your data or create 'denial  of  service'
for your package scripts.

Even if you make rm(dir) for files/directories, then  your  system  is
not protected. Attacker can permanently create symlinks.

This list is created with the help of script.  This list is sorted  by
hand. Howewer in some cases mistake is possible.

Please, Be understanding to possible mistakes. :)

I set Severity into grave for this bug. The table of discovered
problems is below.

Bug#496398: The possibility of attack with the help of symlinks in some Debian packages

2008-08-24 Thread Dmitry E. Oboukhov
Package: mon
Severity: grave

Hi, maintainer!

This message about the error concerns a few packages  at  once.   I've
tested all the packages (for Lenny) on my Debian mirror.  All  scripts
of packages (marked as executable) were tested.

In some packages I've discovered scripts with errors which may be used
by a user for damaging important system files or user's files.

For example if a script uses in its work a temp file which is  created
in /tmp directory, then every user can create symlink  with  the  same
name in this directory in order to  destroy  or  rewrite  some  system
or user file.  Symlink attack may also  lead  not  only  to  the  data
desctruction but to denial of service as well.

Even if you create files or directories with help of function 'RANDOM'
or pid(), then your system is not protected. Attacker can create many
symlinks in order to destroy your data or create 'denial  of  service'
for your package scripts.

Even if you make rm(dir) for files/directories, then  your  system  is
not protected. Attacker can permanently create symlinks.

This list is created with the help of script.  This list is sorted  by
hand. Howewer in some cases mistake is possible.

Please, Be understanding to possible mistakes. :)

I set Severity into grave for this bug. The table of discovered
problems is below.

Bug#496430: The possibility of attack with the help of symlinks in some Debian packages

2008-08-24 Thread Dmitry E. Oboukhov
Package: bk2site
Severity: grave

Hi, maintainer!

This message about the error concerns a few packages  at  once.   I've
tested all the packages (for Lenny) on my Debian mirror.  All  scripts
of packages (marked as executable) were tested.

In some packages I've discovered scripts with errors which may be used
by a user for damaging important system files or user's files.

For example if a script uses in its work a temp file which is  created
in /tmp directory, then every user can create symlink  with  the  same
name in this directory in order to  destroy  or  rewrite  some  system
or user file.  Symlink attack may also  lead  not  only  to  the  data
desctruction but to denial of service as well.

Even if you create files or directories with help of function 'RANDOM'
or pid(), then your system is not protected. Attacker can create many
symlinks in order to destroy your data or create 'denial  of  service'
for your package scripts.

Even if you make rm(dir) for files/directories, then  your  system  is
not protected. Attacker can permanently create symlinks.

This list is created with the help of script.  This list is sorted  by
hand. Howewer in some cases mistake is possible.

Please, Be understanding to possible mistakes. :)

I set Severity into grave for this bug. The table of discovered
problems is below.

Bug#496373: The possibility of attack with the help of symlinks in some Debian packages

2008-08-24 Thread Dmitry E. Oboukhov
Package: freevo
Severity: grave

Hi, maintainer!

This message about the error concerns a few packages  at  once.   I've
tested all the packages (for Lenny) on my Debian mirror.  All  scripts
of packages (marked as executable) were tested.

In some packages I've discovered scripts with errors which may be used
by a user for damaging important system files or user's files.

For example if a script uses in its work a temp file which is  created
in /tmp directory, then every user can create symlink  with  the  same
name in this directory in order to  destroy  or  rewrite  some  system
or user file.  Symlink attack may also  lead  not  only  to  the  data
desctruction but to denial of service as well.

Even if you create files or directories with help of function 'RANDOM'
or pid(), then your system is not protected. Attacker can create many
symlinks in order to destroy your data or create 'denial  of  service'
for your package scripts.

Even if you make rm(dir) for files/directories, then  your  system  is
not protected. Attacker can permanently create symlinks.

This list is created with the help of script.  This list is sorted  by
hand. Howewer in some cases mistake is possible.

Please, Be understanding to possible mistakes. :)

I set Severity into grave for this bug. The table of discovered
problems is below.

Bug#496385: The possibility of attack with the help of symlinks in some Debian packages

2008-08-24 Thread Dmitry E. Oboukhov
Package: realtimebattle-common
Severity: grave

Hi, maintainer!

This message about the error concerns a few packages  at  once.   I've
tested all the packages (for Lenny) on my Debian mirror.  All  scripts
of packages (marked as executable) were tested.

In some packages I've discovered scripts with errors which may be used
by a user for damaging important system files or user's files.

For example if a script uses in its work a temp file which is  created
in /tmp directory, then every user can create symlink  with  the  same
name in this directory in order to  destroy  or  rewrite  some  system
or user file.  Symlink attack may also  lead  not  only  to  the  data
desctruction but to denial of service as well.

Even if you create files or directories with help of function 'RANDOM'
or pid(), then your system is not protected. Attacker can create many
symlinks in order to destroy your data or create 'denial  of  service'
for your package scripts.

Even if you make rm(dir) for files/directories, then  your  system  is
not protected. Attacker can permanently create symlinks.

This list is created with the help of script.  This list is sorted  by
hand. Howewer in some cases mistake is possible.

Please, Be understanding to possible mistakes. :)

I set Severity into grave for this bug. The table of discovered
problems is below.

Bug#496413: The possibility of attack with the help of symlinks in some Debian packages

2008-08-24 Thread Dmitry E. Oboukhov
Package: dpkg-cross
Severity: grave

Hi, maintainer!

This message about the error concerns a few packages  at  once.   I've
tested all the packages (for Lenny) on my Debian mirror.  All  scripts
of packages (marked as executable) were tested.

In some packages I've discovered scripts with errors which may be used
by a user for damaging important system files or user's files.

For example if a script uses in its work a temp file which is  created
in /tmp directory, then every user can create symlink  with  the  same
name in this directory in order to  destroy  or  rewrite  some  system
or user file.  Symlink attack may also  lead  not  only  to  the  data
desctruction but to denial of service as well.

Even if you create files or directories with help of function 'RANDOM'
or pid(), then your system is not protected. Attacker can create many
symlinks in order to destroy your data or create 'denial  of  service'
for your package scripts.

Even if you make rm(dir) for files/directories, then  your  system  is
not protected. Attacker can permanently create symlinks.

This list is created with the help of script.  This list is sorted  by
hand. Howewer in some cases mistake is possible.

Please, Be understanding to possible mistakes. :)

I set Severity into grave for this bug. The table of discovered
problems is below.

Bug#496438: The possibility of attack with the help of symlinks in some Debian packages

2008-08-24 Thread Dmitry E. Oboukhov
Package: cdcontrol
Severity: grave

Hi, maintainer!

This message about the error concerns a few packages  at  once.   I've
tested all the packages (for Lenny) on my Debian mirror.  All  scripts
of packages (marked as executable) were tested.

In some packages I've discovered scripts with errors which may be used
by a user for damaging important system files or user's files.

For example if a script uses in its work a temp file which is  created
in /tmp directory, then every user can create symlink  with  the  same
name in this directory in order to  destroy  or  rewrite  some  system
or user file.  Symlink attack may also  lead  not  only  to  the  data
desctruction but to denial of service as well.

Even if you create files or directories with help of function 'RANDOM'
or pid(), then your system is not protected. Attacker can create many
symlinks in order to destroy your data or create 'denial  of  service'
for your package scripts.

Even if you make rm(dir) for files/directories, then  your  system  is
not protected. Attacker can permanently create symlinks.

This list is created with the help of script.  This list is sorted  by
hand. Howewer in some cases mistake is possible.

Please, Be understanding to possible mistakes. :)

I set Severity into grave for this bug. The table of discovered
problems is below.

Bug#496405: The possibility of attack with the help of symlinks in some Debian packages

2008-08-24 Thread Dmitry E. Oboukhov
Package: sympa
Severity: grave

Hi, maintainer!

This message about the error concerns a few packages  at  once.   I've
tested all the packages (for Lenny) on my Debian mirror.  All  scripts
of packages (marked as executable) were tested.

In some packages I've discovered scripts with errors which may be used
by a user for damaging important system files or user's files.

For example if a script uses in its work a temp file which is  created
in /tmp directory, then every user can create symlink  with  the  same
name in this directory in order to  destroy  or  rewrite  some  system
or user file.  Symlink attack may also  lead  not  only  to  the  data
desctruction but to denial of service as well.

Even if you create files or directories with help of function 'RANDOM'
or pid(), then your system is not protected. Attacker can create many
symlinks in order to destroy your data or create 'denial  of  service'
for your package scripts.

Even if you make rm(dir) for files/directories, then  your  system  is
not protected. Attacker can permanently create symlinks.

This list is created with the help of script.  This list is sorted  by
hand. Howewer in some cases mistake is possible.

Please, Be understanding to possible mistakes. :)

I set Severity into grave for this bug. The table of discovered
problems is below.

Bug#496432: The possibility of attack with the help of symlinks in some Debian packages

2008-08-24 Thread Dmitry E. Oboukhov
Package: ibackup
Severity: grave

Hi, maintainer!

This message about the error concerns a few packages  at  once.   I've
tested all the packages (for Lenny) on my Debian mirror.  All  scripts
of packages (marked as executable) were tested.

In some packages I've discovered scripts with errors which may be used
by a user for damaging important system files or user's files.

For example if a script uses in its work a temp file which is  created
in /tmp directory, then every user can create symlink  with  the  same
name in this directory in order to  destroy  or  rewrite  some  system
or user file.  Symlink attack may also  lead  not  only  to  the  data
desctruction but to denial of service as well.

Even if you create files or directories with help of function 'RANDOM'
or pid(), then your system is not protected. Attacker can create many
symlinks in order to destroy your data or create 'denial  of  service'
for your package scripts.

Even if you make rm(dir) for files/directories, then  your  system  is
not protected. Attacker can permanently create symlinks.

This list is created with the help of script.  This list is sorted  by
hand. Howewer in some cases mistake is possible.

Please, Be understanding to possible mistakes. :)

I set Severity into grave for this bug. The table of discovered
problems is below.

Bug#496341: freeze exception request: rus-ispell and ispell-et

 Greetings,
 
 A user reported a small packaging mistake that somewhat hampers
 utilization of two of my dictionary packages:
 
 ispell-et
 rus-ispell
 
 The mistake is that Hash-Name should use the syntax 2-letter language
 code or 2-letter language_2-LETTER COUNTY, instead of the
 language's name in plain English.
 
 The diff would be really small and it would restore expected behavior
 for calling a language-specific dictionary using aspell's command -l
 option.
 
 I am thus inquiring whether a freeze could be granted for Lenny to
 include the above fix for both packages.

Yes, that would be fine.

Contact us again once it's uploaded.

Cheers

Luk

Bug#496403: The possibility of attack with the help of symlinks in some Debian packages

2008-08-24 Thread Dmitry E. Oboukhov
Package: mgetty-fax
Severity: grave

Hi, maintainer!

This message about the error concerns a few packages  at  once.   I've
tested all the packages (for Lenny) on my Debian mirror.  All  scripts
of packages (marked as executable) were tested.

In some packages I've discovered scripts with errors which may be used
by a user for damaging important system files or user's files.

For example if a script uses in its work a temp file which is  created
in /tmp directory, then every user can create symlink  with  the  same
name in this directory in order to  destroy  or  rewrite  some  system
or user file.  Symlink attack may also  lead  not  only  to  the  data
desctruction but to denial of service as well.

Even if you create files or directories with help of function 'RANDOM'
or pid(), then your system is not protected. Attacker can create many
symlinks in order to destroy your data or create 'denial  of  service'
for your package scripts.

Even if you make rm(dir) for files/directories, then  your  system  is
not protected. Attacker can permanently create symlinks.

This list is created with the help of script.  This list is sorted  by
hand. Howewer in some cases mistake is possible.

Please, Be understanding to possible mistakes. :)

I set Severity into grave for this bug. The table of discovered
problems is below.

Bug#496433: The possibility of attack with the help of symlinks in some Debian packages

2008-08-24 Thread Dmitry E. Oboukhov
Package: audiolink
Severity: grave

Hi, maintainer!

This message about the error concerns a few packages  at  once.   I've
tested all the packages (for Lenny) on my Debian mirror.  All  scripts
of packages (marked as executable) were tested.

In some packages I've discovered scripts with errors which may be used
by a user for damaging important system files or user's files.

For example if a script uses in its work a temp file which is  created
in /tmp directory, then every user can create symlink  with  the  same
name in this directory in order to  destroy  or  rewrite  some  system
or user file.  Symlink attack may also  lead  not  only  to  the  data
desctruction but to denial of service as well.

Even if you create files or directories with help of function 'RANDOM'
or pid(), then your system is not protected. Attacker can create many
symlinks in order to destroy your data or create 'denial  of  service'
for your package scripts.

Even if you make rm(dir) for files/directories, then  your  system  is
not protected. Attacker can permanently create symlinks.

This list is created with the help of script.  This list is sorted  by
hand. Howewer in some cases mistake is possible.

Please, Be understanding to possible mistakes. :)

I set Severity into grave for this bug. The table of discovered
problems is below.

the debian apache2 package does.

Bug#496392: The possibility of attack with the help of symlinks in some Debian packages

2008-08-24 Thread Dmitry E. Oboukhov
Package: myspell-tools
Severity: grave

Hi, maintainer!

This message about the error concerns a few packages  at  once.   I've
tested all the packages (for Lenny) on my Debian mirror.  All  scripts
of packages (marked as executable) were tested.

In some packages I've discovered scripts with errors which may be used
by a user for damaging important system files or user's files.

For example if a script uses in its work a temp file which is  created
in /tmp directory, then every user can create symlink  with  the  same
name in this directory in order to  destroy  or  rewrite  some  system
or user file.  Symlink attack may also  lead  not  only  to  the  data
desctruction but to denial of service as well.

Even if you create files or directories with help of function 'RANDOM'
or pid(), then your system is not protected. Attacker can create many
symlinks in order to destroy your data or create 'denial  of  service'
for your package scripts.

Even if you make rm(dir) for files/directories, then  your  system  is
not protected. Attacker can permanently create symlinks.

This list is created with the help of script.  This list is sorted  by
hand. Howewer in some cases mistake is possible.

Please, Be understanding to possible mistakes. :)

I set Severity into grave for this bug. The table of discovered
problems is below.

 Somehow Luk managed to make me say OK, I'll collect the release

 but I really want to solve the issue now. The bug report is open
 for almost three years now. I talked also to Steve, who is one
 of the main authors of the release notes and aware of the issue.
 
 I ask hereby - and in private mails following this one - all
 authors of the release notes to place their contribution to the

 If I cannot get positive answers within, hm, let's say three

   translators can use their own translations and re-commit under
   the terms of GPL.
 
 * What about other contributors? So far, I could not find other
   contributor names in the logs (i.e. other than translations).
   If you find or know something, please follow-up.

I guess bug submitters and/or patch providers would also count as
contributor?

Hi,

Your problem is in device.map, but grub should tell you about that instead of
reporting those ugly errors.

Would you please confirm if the attached patch turns these error messages
into beautiful warnings?

Thanks

Bug#496163: Same as #496125

2008-08-24 Thread Chris Burkhardt
I'm pretty sure this is the same as #496125
(http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=496125).

A security update to libxml2 added a member to the xmlEntity struct
which broke librsvg. Work around: rebuild librsvg, or downgrade libxml2.

Bug#496441: inetutils-ping: Description has incorrect expansion for ping

2008-08-24 Thread Josh Triplett
Package: inetutils-ping
Severity: minor

From the description of inetutils-ping:
 Ping (The Packet InterNet Gropper) uses ICMP to send out echo requests,
 and uses the reply packets to calculate latency between the sending and
 the destination hosts.

From the original Ping website, http://ftp.arl.mil/~mike/ping.html:
 I named it after the sound that a sonar makes, inspired by the whole
 principle of echo-location.
[...]
 From my point of view PING is not an acronym standing for Packet
 InterNet Grouper, it's a sonar analogy.

But, people often put Wget in the robots file (especially when they opt
to do that rather than block by User-Agent) because they get hammered by
 it. Please be gracious, and use --wait or --limit-rate as appropriate

2008-08-24 Thread Julien Cristau
Hi,

you all reported font corruption in X using the intel driver with EXA
acceleration enabled, on i965 chipsets.
Are you using a framebuffer kernel driver?  If /proc/fb is non-empty,
please send its contents to the bug you reported.  If it's empty, please
report that also :)

We'll probably have to revert back to XAA by default on i965 for lenny,
but it'd be nice to get the corruption with EXA fixed anyway, as XAA
will go away from the driver in the future.

Cheers,
Julien

Bug#496443: vux: Incorrect signal handling

2008-08-24 Thread Hans-Joachim Baader
Package: vux
Version: 0.4.9
Severity: important
Tags: patch


Hi,

when sending a command to vux via vuxctl, vux spawns a new player which
results in multiple songs playing or waiting to be played simultaneously.

After a long search I suspected the wait function to be the cause of this.
When I concentrated on this is didn't take long to find and fix the bug.
The wait is interrupted by the HUP signal sent by vuxctl, and vux should
continue to wait after that. Here's the patch:

Bug#484693: Bug affects *all* powerpc archs

2008-08-24 Thread Matthew William Cox
Hello,

This problem (and it's fix) is *not* PPC64 specific. The exact same
problems occur on 32 bit powerpc platforms, and remain unaddressed.
Accordingy, I've reopened this bug.

I've rebuilt the powerpc configured kernel with CONFIG_RTC_DRV_PPC=m. I
added it to the initramfs, and loaded it at boot. This resolved the
issues with setting the hwclock.

Please apply CONFIG_RTC_DRV_PPC to all powerpc configurations.

Thank you.

 I have just confirmed that the display corruption is _not_ a debconf bug, 
 but is caused by xresprobe being run.
 
 If I replace xresprobe by a simple shell script that produces identical 
 output, the display corruption does not occur.
 For reference, running xresprobe in VirtualBox on my system results in 
 (first 3 lines have a trailing space):
 id: 
 res: 
 freq: 
 disptype: crt
 
 I will clone this BR to the X strike force, but also leave it against 
 cdebconf (blocked by #430545) as a reminder of the issue.

Can this be closed now?  xserver-xorg has stopped recommending/using
xresprobe in December 2007 (xorg 1:7.3+8).

Julien

Bug#496445: apt-listbugs: proceed after displaying bug list in html

2008-08-24 Thread Ross Boylan
Package: apt-listbugs
Version: 0.0.89
Severity: wishlist

I run aptitude in a terminal and have it set to invoke
apt-listbugs. After listing the bugs on the terminal, apt-list bugs
asks
Are you sure you want to install/upgrade the above packages? [Y/n/?/...]

If one responds w [display bug lists in html (uses
sensible-browser)] a browser with the bugs is spawned.

One must kill the browser before proceeding with apt-listbugs.

I would like it if apt-listbugs could spawn the browser and then
proceed directly, i.e., without needing to wait for the browser to be
killed.  I find it helpful to keep the bugs up for reference for both
the short run (while I alter the installation options of packages,
check for problems after installation, or follow advice in some bugs)
and the short run (to see if there's new info or a fix from some bugs,
and to know which bugs are relevant to my installation).

Thanks.

 It's not the behaviour Debian's packages of MySQL used to have and
 it's not the behaviour I'd like them to have.

 The behaviour was changed upstream between 5.0.32 and 5.0.51.

In what way?
Upstream always created the test database and user (AFAIK), Debian didn't.

Bug#496352: edos-debcheck: Fatal error: exception Stack_overflow when trying to resolve a sudoku puzzle

2008-08-24 Thread Ralf Treinen
Hi,

On Sun, Aug 24, 2008 at 12:24:38PM -0500, Raphael Geissert wrote:
 Package: edos-debcheck
 Version: 1.0-7
 
 Using the attached file:
 
 $ edos-debcheck -quiet  Packages_board
 row1 (= 1.0-1): OK
   cell1.1 (= 1): OK
   cell1.2 (= 2): OK

Thanks for your bug report and for trying this somewhat unexpected
application of edos-debcheck. The problem of solving package
dependencies is NP-complete in general, which means that 
most probably no algorithm can solve efficiently any
random instance of it. Edos-debcheck was designed to solve 
efficiently dependency relations that stem from actual Package files,
that is Package files describing a real distribution.

It would certainly be posible to tweak edos-debcheck to also
solve that particular problem (since soduko is solved in no time 
by a finite-domain constraint solver). However this would yield
no advantage for better solving the problem that edos-debcheck was
designed to solve. I will hence tag this as wontfix.

Having said that I still find it interesting and amusing to see
how one can systematically construct difficult problem instances,
even if these are compleley artificial and have noting to do with
real-life instances (I have seen Daniel's blog  post with the
python code). We will probaby use this as hard test case in the
future dependency solver competition ...

Cheers -Ralf.
