Hilmar The easiest fix is to replace the following line in debian/rules: cc -Wall -g -O2 -o build/wftodm wftodm.c with: cc -ansi -g -O2 -o build/wftodm wftodm.c It works under GCC 14 as well. The "wftodm" binary is only used during build time to build AFM and PFA fonts; it is not shipped to the end user of the package. So IMHO this easy fix is enough. What do you think?

To me, these seems just fairly benign warnings based on deprecated C89 conventions. With GCC 14 these warnings turn into errors and the build fails (as described), so these messages are not benign. They are long standing, though. On the other hand, they are just syntax errors; so people which speak C, should be able to fix them. I tried do a patch, but my C knowledge got lost over years. I tag that bug "help" for now. With this bug report, I've been thinking: should we continue to put time and effort in a venerable but older package like CJK? Or do we keep this package as legacy, and forcefully ignore some of the warnings of the C compiler? Let me know what you think. Unfortunately I don't speak CJK, I've never used any of these packages. Hence I can't really say, how useful latex-cjk-japanese-wadalab is. The popcon of both package are comparable (probably b/c latex-cjk-all declares a dep on it). So, we can't simply drop it.

Both packages have very low usage acc to popcon, but for fq the fq binary is the entire point of the package, whereas for nq, the fq binary seems to only be a small part of the functionality of the package. Therefore, I think that nq should rename the fq binary. With that argument I could also upload another new package called tq, which contains only the binary /usr/bin/tq (+ man page) and argue that it has the right keep that name b/c it is the only binary in it. ;-) I rather follow the argumentation of Bastian: new packages should better care if they introduce file conflicts w/ existing packages, especially if the names of the programs are rather short. I had a look if there are packages, which needs nq or fq for building, i.e. if renaming could cause FTBFS bugs: currently there are none for both. So, we only will generate frustrated end users.

Further, documents that use the OpenType features of Junicode 1 (aside from basics like kerning and standard ligatures) may not be displayed properly when changed over to Junicode 2." I guess it would have been better to create fonts-junicode2 and then slowly phase out fonts-junicode, when v2 left beta stage. I could simply fix the links and point them to the v2 OTF fonts. This could be even done now. This would give Debian users the v2 fonts but I don't know if they are compatible to the Junicode related files in texlive-fonts-extra. Junicode v2 wasn't even uploaded to CTAN yet. I guess it is a better idea to stay with Junicode 1 for now and re-integrate them into tfe after bookworm.. fonts-alegreya-sans will not be in bookworm (and hasn't been in bullseye), thus /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/fonts/opentype/huerta/alegreya also contains broken symlinks.

Fortunately the texlive-latex-base package ships the previous (v2, feynmf-compatible) version of that file along with v3.

Than TL migrates and breaks latexml for users of testing that don't immediately remove packages that are no longer in testing. Yes, correct. The idea to add a breaks into texlive-latex-base sounds reasonable to me and I'll introduce it. Meanwhile latexml upstream has provided a patch for the issue. I did not test it, but they have their own test beds and it looks good so far. Not sure when I'll find time to upload new packages.

Am 22.10.2022 um 10:21 teilte Debian Bug Tracking System mit: Hi Adrian, the breakage is not caused by the perl upload, but due to the latest TeX Live upload at the beginning of this month. Hence TL either does not migrate to testing (which is good in the moment IMHO). I reported the issue upstream, not sure when we get a solution. I could remove the few failing tests from the test suite, but we would get a degraded TL / latexml combination in testing this way. Can we add an override / hint to make sure perl migrates to testing? Further the autorm for latexml would need to be removed, else the new TL will migrate to testing and will break an (already) installed latexml package. Any further ideas how to handle the situation?

The install script of a package fails, hence apt declares the whole package installation to be not successful. apt can't do much in this situation except trying the script of the later version in the hope a script bug was fixed in the new version. This was not the case, the script failed (probably) due to a full file system. This is not uncommon when doing TL upgrades. So, what do you expect? Should apt delete some random files and start over? apt could try to do some random system checks like "df -h", show users the results, so they get an idea why the installation failed. However this is an wishlist bug for apt, not a serious bug for "tex-common". Can we close the issue here? Hilmar -- sigfault OpenPGP_signature Description: OpenPGP digital signature

First the package proftpd-core_1.3.7a + dfsg-12_amd64.deb. But that fails again: dpkg -i proftpd-core_1.3.7a+dfsg-12_amd64.deb I would not expect that this works. Your specific proftp configuration needs to crypto and the wrap modules so I'd expect that the setup fails, b/c they could not be found. However I still don't understand why the setup fails if they are at least in unpacked state. Vormals nicht ausgewähltes Paket proftpd-core wird gewählt.

Could you check if the files /usr/lib/proftpd/mod_tls.so & /usr/lib/proftpd/mod_wrap.so do exist? Hilmar Hi Hilmar, both, /usr/lib/proftpd/mod_wrap.so and /usr/lib/proftpd/mod_tls.so doesn't exist. But that also seems logical to me, because in order to be able to install proftpd-mod-wrap and proftpd-mod-crypto, proftpd-core has to be completely installed because of the dependencies. But the installation of proftpd-core fails right from the start. dpkg: Error while editing the package proftpd-core (--configure): The "installed proftpd-core script of the post-installation package" subprocess returned the error value 1 dpkg: Dependency problems prevent configuration of proftpd-mod-crypto: proftpd-mod-crypto depends on proftpd-core (= 1.3.7a + dfsg-12); but: Package proftpd-core is not yet configured. At the moment I think something is going wrong with the installation of proftpd-core. When splitting off the wrap and the crypto modules into own packages I put them into recommends to make sure they are installed. proftpd-dfsg (1.3.7a-2) unstable; urgency=medium [ Hilmar Preusse ] * Move modules depending on libsodium & libwrap0 into own packages. New packages are recommended. Francesco later decided to put them into Suggests: proftpd-dfsg (1.3.7a+dfsg-3) unstable; urgency=medium * Moved -mod-wrap and -mod-crypto among Suggests, thanks to changes to default template for modules.conf. So, you probably have a custom modules.conf and refused to use the one from the package maintainers. So solution could be: either install these packages or use the modules.conf from the package. Please send the output of apt install proftpd-core proftpd-basic proftpd-mod-crypto proftpd-mod-wrap I'm wondering why this does not work: all packages should be unpacked before the proftpd-core is configured, so all files needed to configure proftpd-core should be available.

Bug#986686: missing b-d netpbm?
Am 14.07.2021 um 00:50 teilte Norbert Preining mit: Hi Norbert, @Norbert: do you have an opinion. Should be rather branch from 20200329-1, which is currently in testing? Seems to be ok. Documentation fixes are explicitly included in the freeze exception list. I understand this as: we branch from 20200329-1 and go with "20200329-1bullseye1". In this case we have a rather small debdiff. I could use "20200329-2", but this version will never appear in the changelog of the master. Note sure if this would be OK. Please: - prepare a debdiff (even if it is long) - file a freeze exception bug report - include the *code* (debian/control) changes in the main email and state that the rest of the debdiff is documentation only changes - state that *no* functional changes are there, only ensuring that there is no FTBFS - after the ok, upload I guess that should do it Thanks a lot Norbert -- sigfault OpenPGP_signature Description: OpenPGP digital signature

You could ask the release team by submitting an unblock request with reportbug release.debian.org containing a diff of debian/ between the version currently in testing and what you'd like to upload. Yes, yes. The debdiff has a size of 270KB and I don't even intend to read it. @Norbert: do you have an opinion. Should be rather branch from 20200329-1, which is currently in testing?
