consulter les rapports de bogue sur le BTS Debian pour avoir plus

Ils devraient revenir dans testing (donc etch) quand ces problèmes

http://buildd.debian.org/fetch.php?pkg=amulever=1.2.6%2Brc8-1arch=powerpcstamp=1104975376file=logas=raw
Le 5 janvier, sa compilation sur ppc a échoué. Et il n'a pas retenté depuis.
C'est étrange, car ppc est un port en bon état. je pense que j'ai pas trouvé

Since we have no package maintainers, but a big team of enthusiasts
trying to make as much cool things happen as possible, everybody is
interested in bug fixes or a new upstream version or something else
deadly clever. I really like this system and it's very encouraging to
work that way.

Unfortunately, our ToReview lists (those of package changes by
non-maintainers) and of NEW packages (as discussed on this list already)
grew longer and longer. So I'm not quite sure, if we get stuff in
easier, but the process is lighter... yes.

Up to now the changes we made were always bound to something, either: 

  * new upstream release
  * a transition (big ones like python2.4, gcc-4.0, smaller ones
like libhowl0 moving out, ...)
  * a bugfix

So reviewing was always a bit easier, since you could focus on
specifics.

Hope that explains our processes a bit.

Have a nice day,
 Daniel

Sounds like a good quality measure.

I have to admit that I was not aware that there is something in parallel
in this universe that the Debian mirrors which is providing *.deb packages
of free software.  My impression was that Ubuntu would directly derive
from sid and universe would be kind of a sid mirror.  If this is not

other kind of cutlery.  IMHO this is a clear sign that Ubunto is

or a problem for me.  I just thought that joining forces in Free Software
is the most effective way and I wonder why Ubuntu did not decided to
add what is missing in Debian instead of making an extra effort.  But
it must be me that I do not understand all things which happen ...

It's good to clarify some bits. In Ubuntu we have 4 repositories: 

  * main: the really really 18-months supported stuff (get parts of
it on a CD or all of it on one 2,x Gb DVD)
  * restricted: non-free kernel stuff
  * universe: community-maintained packages
  * multiverse: non-free stuff

That's it.


 IMHO this is a clear sign that Ubunto is
 drifting away from Debian.

The fact that we get in NEW packages? We're discussing right now, how to
get them back in Debian or make it easier for Debian maintainers to get
hold of those. That's no real drifting for me. Hm.

 Whats the deal with bug #307900?

 As far as I can tell from reading the bug report, the bug has not been
 fixed in sarge, will not be fixed for the release, but the bug has
 been closed.

kernel-source-2.6.8 2.6.8-15 has been in testing for some time now.

kernel-image packages built against 2.6.8-16 are available in sarge for the
past week or so for i386, alpha, and ia64.

kernel-image packages built against 2.6.8-15 are also available in sarge for
sparc; the amd64 kernels for the i386 architecture are also built against
this revision.  There are further security fixes in -16, so these images
should be rebuilt, but they include the fix for 307900.

Fixed kernel-image packages were not available for the other architectures
prior to the freeze, so will need to be handled via security.debian.org.
However, AIUI the exploit that exists in the wild for this hole is
i386-specific (please correct me if I'm wrong).

In light of the announcement at the beginning of May that sarge is
security-supported, I think it would be a good idea for any DSAs issued over
these holes to include mention of the relevant kernel versions for i386
etc., so that users who have upgraded earlier know that they need to upgrade
and reboot.

Most of the architectures that are still shipping unfixed 2.6.8 kernels in
sarge are outside the purview of the kernel team AIUI, so it may take a bit
of time to get packages synced up for a DSA.

 Have we come to the point where making a release is more important
 then fixing known security bugs?

What is known is that new security holes that affect sarge have been
appearing on a roughly weekly basis, and new security holes affecting the
kernel are being reported on a roughly monthly basis.  You can't get to a
release with no known security holes using those kinds of numbers; you can
pick and choose *which* security fixes you think are important enough to
wait on, but we just don't have the kind of turnaround on fixes to be able
to foresee a point where we can say that no package, anywhere in sarge, has
a known security hole.

 Does this mean people who want secure pre-compiled kernels have to
 resort to unstable until the issue is fixed?

Currently, unstable is in the same state as sarge wrt kernel security.

Some Debian maintainers were really unhappy about Ubuntu bugreports and
I do completly agree with them. Some packages are compiled against
different libraries or differ in other areas. The same happened in the
Ubuntu BTS: we got bug reports from users using backports and we weren't
able to reproduce those bugs.

However, Canonical started an effort to minimize hassle with bugs in
different distributions:

http://launchpad.ubuntu.com/malone

will be a meta-bugtracker which will be able to track bugs in different
BTS's.

Hi,

 Could you please explain what is N-gram and what is this package useful
 for?

N-gram is when you use n-characters as a 'word'.

In some languages including Japanese, it is impossible to 
determine a 'word', and N-gram is a method that defines a 
'word' as n-characters.

What about replacing the admin/ dir from the upstream package with

C++ ABI change for etch -- freeze unstable for all C++ libs with changed or new sonames

2005-06-05 Thread Matthias Klose
For etch we will update the toolchain (glibc, binutils,
linux-kernel-headers, gcc) again.  Some updates look easy, other will
have a bigger impact on packages.  One aspect of the toolchain update
is the change of the C++ ABI from version 1 (102) to version 2 (1002)
of the GNU C++ compiler.  Looks painful, but doable, as some of you
may still remember the toolchain update in the early sarge stages.  In
short, we will have to rename all packages containing shared libraries
written in C++.  After these library packages have been renamed, all
libraries and applications depending on the changed library names have
to be uploaded again.  To minimize the uploads and and lower the load
of the buildds, C++ code should be uploaded, after the C++ compiler
(c++, g++) points to a compiler version providing the new C++ ABI.
Therefore the proposal to

- freeze unstable for uploads of library packages with new ABI
  versions.  If a new soname is introduced now, it has to be changed a
  few weeks later again.  Packages depending on these libraries
  would need to be uploaded twice as well.

- discourage C++ related uploads to unstable until after the planned
  C++ ABI change.

Details of the planned C++ ABI change can be found at

  http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2005/04/msg00153.html

The time frame of the C++ ABI changed is not yet fixed.  We will
certainly need some time to get the toolchain in shape to start the
transition.  In the meantime you can check the new compilers in
unstable (g++-3.4) and in experimental (g++-4.0), the new binutils in
experimental (2.16), and the new glibc in experimental (2.3.5).

 Details of the planned C++ ABI change can be found at
 
   http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2005/04/msg00153.html

There I find this remark:

  Appended is an updated version, the most notable change is to drop
  the 'c102' suffix from packages, if it exists. This way, we get rid
  off the ugly extension, and we don't support direct upgrades from
  woody to etch anyway.

How will this work for already installed non-debian binaries.  I am
talking about binaries installed a long time ago by the system
administrator, using the C++ ABI in woody.  If this third party
package depends on libfoo (with old C++ ABI, before c102 was added),
how do we avoid that the program break when the machine in question is
upgraded from sarge to etch?

To elaborate, I talk about a machine installed with woody, where
someone built their own package with some binary using the woody C++
ABI, next, they upgrade to sarge and get libfooc102 in addition to the
libfoo library they are using, and then when etch is released, they
upgrade to etch, and libfoo from woody is replaced with libfoo from
etch, with a completely different C++ ABI.  Is this the way it will
work?  Do we want it?

Notice that I am not talking about a direct upgrade from woody to
etch.  I'm talking about an upgrade woody-sarge-etch.

(I suspect we could avoid it by making sure all libraries using the
c102 prefix use the c2 prefix in etch.)

 As far as for building personal packages, you are right.  But, as the

 enough into the docs to find out how to get it preserve the installed
 packages, but that is because I like being able to build in a clean
 environment every time and don't have an inclination to change it.  But,
 your point is taken.

I guess many people confuse pbuilder and sbuild here , two entirely
different pieces of software:

pbuilder untars a tarball of a clean build system, copies the source
into the chroot, installs the build dependencies there, builds the
package, copies the generated packages out and deletes the whole chroot

sbuild uses an existing chroot, copies the source there, installs the
build dependencies, builds the package, copies the generated packages
out and deinstalls the build dependencies

The buildds use sbuild. Most individual developers I know use
pbuilder...

So nothing complicated here. Just don't talk about the wrong software in

one of the packages outside of debian installed on some machine
somewhere?

PS: No, I haven't checked if either of these package sets are

  The first class of packages is impossible to extract. :)

Doesn't this cause the same issue as with sarge where the transition was 
too early and could have been to a more recent gcc version if done 
later?

Your release team plans a 12-18 months release cycle. This means etch 
will not release before the second half of 2006.

It's not unlikely that gcc 4.1 will be released in 2005.

The C++ ABI might change again in gcc 4.1 .

If the C++ transition was half a year from now to gcc 4.1, it was still
6-12 months before the date your release team plans to release etch.

 Hi

  Hello Mathias,

 I'm trying to solve bug #303860 but I need some help. The problem is that
 the configure script errors on sparc because it can't find the KDE
 libraries. All other architechtures build fine.

  You can solve this bug with the following patch (at least, celestia
  got past the configure step on vore.debian.org):

--- debian/rules
+++ debian/rules
@@ -84,7 +84,7 @@
--mandir=\$${prefix}/share/man \
--infodir=\$${prefix}/share/info \
--disable-rpath \

  This workarounds a bug in admin/acinclude.m4.in which bogusly assumes
  that if /lib64 exists, all libraries are to be found in lib64/
  directories.

  This bug was fixed upstream on 2003-03-06 [1], so I really recommend
  (as Stephan mentioned) that upstream updates the admin/ directory for
  celestia. If you want to do it yourself for the Debian package, you
  can do this:

% dpkg-source -x celestia_1.3.2-1.dsc
% cd celestia-1.3.2
% rm -rf admin
% svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/KDE/3.3/kde-common/admin

You just heat up the discussion with your mail and get nowhere.

Uhm, so you think Debian should have done the gcc 4.0 transition while
in the final stages of a freeze?  Do you think Ubuntu would have done
this transition if we could have pushed it through Debian quicker than
doing it ourselves in Ubuntu?  I would rather be thankful that
somebody had actually done 90% of the work already in the same way
that the Ubuntu developers have been very, very happy about all the
work committed by Andreas Jochens as part of his gcc3.4 and later gcc
4.0 AMD64 port.

They are already, but why is that relevant?  Why is that a bigger
problem than development decisions being taken by HP staff, Progeny
staff, RedHat staff, SuSE staff, IBM staff and employees of other
organisations?  Debian isn't under the control of any of those
organisations; that should be fairly obvious.

 It's not unlikely that gcc 4.1 will be released in 2005.
 
 The C++ ABI might change again in gcc 4.1 .

the world might become flat again.

 If the C++ transition was half a year from now to gcc 4.1, it was still
 6-12 months before the date your release team plans to release etch.

If it's 6 month before the release, it's definitely too late.

 The decisions that were taken, were discussed by not just Canonical
 employees. Did you actually check if they make sense at all? To me it
 seems to be the only reasonable thing.

The problem is that the decisions are always taken for the Ubuntu
distribution first. Then, people from Canonical or people wanting to
keep compatibility between the two distributions will always want Debian
to follow the decisions taken for Ubuntu, regardless of their technical
merit and relevance for Debian. This way, Debian ends up being lead by
Canonical, and always lagging behind.

Actually, you can just look at what happens and see this is already the
case. Many packages in Debian are lagging behind Ubuntu, and
Ubuntu-specific patches are not forwarded to Debian maintainers,
regardless of the declarations. You can also see that the only
architectures supposed not to be dropped from testing in the Vancouver
proposal are the architectures Ubuntu supports. Is it a coincidence? I'd
like to think so.

I'm not saying that for this particular decision, it wasn't the right
thing to do. I'm questioning the independence of the project as a whole
for important technical decisions. Debian has always been superior
because we used to take the time to evaluate solutions and keep the best
one, technically speaking. If we merely follow Ubuntu, decisions won't
be only based on technical merits, but also on political and economical
ones.

All the teams that are occasionally accused of cabalistic

that they are composed of a group of DD's that simply have shown genuine
interest and constructive contributions to the team's goal at hand. In
other words, those teams consist of those doing the work. I'll be the
first to admit that indeed the admittance to such teams might be a bit
obscure to those not following closely what's happening, but if
someone's genuinly interested in contributing to any particular task,
there's always a lot to do also for relatively outsiders, and that's the
way you can show competence and make a step towards joining.

If you believe that it is impossible, I can assure you I've doing
exactly the above. Considering I've started my NM process beginning of
2004, hardly knowing any other DD, and I'm a DD for less than half a
year now, I think one can say it can't be that bad. For what it's worth,
I did feel and do still feel that some parts of Debian are too obscure
to join and contribute to, it's not that I don't think that can be
improved.

One of the things I've done to try to improve the situation,
was mobilizing a group of somewhat-like-minded people in the form of a
DPL team. I know results so far are sparse, especially seeing we're
approaching 2 months since the election now, but releasing Sarge has
drained a significant amount of energy of a number of people so far :-/.
I plan to give more attention to this stuff real soon now, and also in
Helsinki, I hope a number of brainstorm sessions on issues like this
will result in good and new idea's on various subjects.

As always, constructive idea's and posts about issues in Debian not
running as smoothly as they maybe could are always appreciated, but just
complaining about being doomed with Canonical ruling Debian, or
something like that, is not constructive at all, rather, it'll only hurt

characteristics.

Now, please tell me what I can do so that all architectures in sarge are
supported in etch. Or what I could have done so that amd64 was included
in sarge. These decisions were taken by closed groups, without any care
for their actual technical merits, and against the will of most
developers. And there's nothing I can do to contribute to these

  The C++ ABI might change again in gcc 4.1 .
 
 the world might become flat again.

The issue with sarge is that it ships with gcc 3.3 as default compiler 
although it could have shipped with gcc 3.4 .

The issue with etch is that there might be enough time to wait for
gcc 4.1 before doing the transition and immediately go to gcc 4.1 then.

Shipping sarge with gcc 3.3 and etch with gcc 4.0 doesn't the world stop 
from turning. But as far as I can see the big batch of work is the 
transition. And if one transition can be a bigger step forwards, that 
doesn't sound like a bad idea.

  If the C++ transition was half a year from now to gcc 4.1, it was still
  6-12 months before the date your release team plans to release etch.
 
 If it's 6 month before the release, it's definitely too late.

Silly question:
Why?

I see the following critical tasks of a gcc transition (you have to 
change gcc-defaults and perhaps a few other things, but they shouldn't
cause any problems):
1. ensure that the whole archive builds with the new default compiler
2. doing the C++ transition

The C++ transition seems to be the easier part, since it mostly requires 
updating all C++ libraries and packages using C++ libraries. This is a 
serious amount of packages, but it's pretty straightforward.

Reagarding the first part, gcc 3.4 and 4.0 compile errors are already 
reported in the BTS and hopefully resolved pretty soon. And unless the C 
or C++ frontends of gcc 4.1 will reject a serious amount of code their 
gcc 4.0 counterparts accepted, this should only generate a manageable 
amount of problems.

Yes, a gcc transition takes some time. But with the experiences of the 
sarge transition to gcc 3.2 and the Ubunto transition to gcc 4.0, where 
exactly in the transition do you expect problems that couldn't be solved 
within 2 or 3 months after the start of the transition?

And whether I like it or not, the resulting three months before the 
release would still be before the start of the first part of the freeze 
in the schedules of your release team.

Really? IMO it is exactly the lack of authority and strong top
management that has lead us into the current situation.

Take it as is: Woody release was a real misery, and Sarge's close to a
fiaco (sligthly exxagerating). What's the reason? IMO simple: we cannot
synchronise our actions properly. This happens because of missing
motivation, but this is a side effect of the real reason: having no
concrete tasks, no concreate plans or scedules. And no authorities that
would give the answers (even worse, official or pseudo authorities
hiding and avoiding to have to answer, you know whom I am talking about).

The dead end expects Debian because of people not wanting to take
responsibility and people that act irrational (eg. too risky in task
scheduling issues, time calculations) because they know they can afford
it, not having to take any responsibility.

Are you jealous of Ubuntu because they have more success then Debian?
Why about seeing them as a software experiment and learning from them?
We would learn following things:

 - a hard release schedule is neccessary. Everyone needs to know _when_
   the job is to done, there must be a clear deadline. Even if there is
   just small leeway for delay, people will be unable to schedule their
   work. We have seen that before, again and again, even AJ has
   complained about that. We should stop compensating this shit with
   stretching the release period, again and again.
   
 - we need to priorize packages and architectures. Second class may
   sound bad we need it to make the core system thin enough to become
   release in timely manner. Keep the best, drop the rest (or move it to
   separated archives).
   
We cannot have every piece of software in the world in Debian and
guarantee a high quality level. Remember the numbers of upstream bugs
that we have in our stable all the time.  After view months it simply
outnumbers the potential risks from having an upgrade.
   
So recommending Debian Stable as production system has become pure farce
in the last months, because it is either buggy (upstream bugs) or
incompatible == unuseable because of hardware issues (outdated software)
or compatibility with newer developments.

What I mean: Debian has become a no-no for productive environment for
the majority of users out there (and please do not come with works for
me on ..., it is not very representative).

Regards,
Eduard.

 Then how did these people end up choosing to support the same set of
 architectures as Ubuntu?

I know I've been screaming murder and hell about this, but in hindsight,
after having read the proposers' explanations (and the proposal itself
for a few more times), this certainly is not what they're proposing.

The whole thing is confusing, because the one nybbles mail talks about
multiple things, and it's easy to mix those up. But in reality, the
nybbles proposal suggests that we do the following:

* Split the architectures over two sets of mirror networks, so that
  mirror administrators don't need 100G just to mirror Debian anymore.
  This has nothing to do with what architectures can release a stable
  and what architectures cannot; only with mirror bandwidth and disk
  space usage. The popularity of an architecture will be a deciding
  factor in the decision of what archive mirror network will be used,
  but there's of course nothing wrong with that; architectures would be
  allowed to create a stable release on that second-class mirror
  network, and that's what counts.
* Create a set of rules that an architecture has to abide by in order to
  be allowed to release. This set of rules would be there to make sure
  that a port's porters, rather than the set of release managers, ftp
  masters and the like, do all the work in making the port work.
  Provided that set of rules is sensible (which I'm not entirely sure of
  right now, but that can be fixed), there's nothing wrong with such a
  suggestion.

While it is indeed very likely that only amd64, i386, and (perhaps)

The story of speex/vorbis-tools, or how not to be disservicing to our users

2005-06-05 Thread Adeodato Simó
Hello,

  [I'm sending this to three lists. Please only reply to -devel unless
  the answer is on-topic for some of the others.]

  This mail is about making people aware of how actions aimed at
  improving Debian, like providing a new version of a library or NMUing
  a package, can have negative effects too, and how can everybody (even
  the casual -devel reader) help to minimize such effects.

  For that, I will use what recently happened with vorbis-tools and
  speex as a example. This is not a personal rant, since I don't use any
  of the affected software, but I do care about the overall quality of
  Debian and seeing this things happen saddens me a lot. Which is why I
  decided to write this e-mail.

  None of this is about finding out who was at fault, since we all make
  mistakes. It's just about answering what can I do better, which I
  think everybody asks themselves from time to time.

 * * *

  The story
  =

  The Speex library made, among others, the following change between 1.0
  and 1.1: its speex.h file moved from /usr/include to /usr/include/speex.
  After libspeex 1.1 had been uploaded, a new upload of the vorbis-tools
  package happened (an authorized NMU, to be precise). When this new
  version was compiled against speex 1.1, the ./configure script failed
  to detect the availability of speex, and thus disabled speex support.

  A bug about ogg123 not being able to reproduce .spx files any more was
  filed at severity important 9 days after the upload (#306809). One
  month later, a message was sent to d-devel [1] explaining the
  situation. I read the message a couple days later, and promptly
  uploaded a NMU to fix (with maintainer's permission). Unfortunately,
  it was too late for it to be included in Sarge.

  Net result: ogg123 as shipped in Sarge can't play speex files, while
  the software is capable of doing so and so was the case during most of
  the Sarge development cycle.

[1] http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2005/06/msg00035.html

 * * *

  The analysis
  

  So let's have a look from several point of views at what can be done
  better in order to prevent things like this happening, 

  Library maintainers
  ---

Please treat the maintainers of packages build-depending on your
library as first-class users. Try to always be aware of what
consequences will your acts have for them, and communicate when
necessary.

For example, for the above change between speex 1.0 and 1.1, a
notice could have been sent (and perhaps it was) to the affected
maintainers making them aware of the issue. Such notice is best sent
in the form of a bug in the BTS, so that other people (e.g., NMUers)
can know about the issue too.

If you're certain that the issue will bite a package in the next
upload, file the bug at severity important or higher. For example:
vorbis-tools: auto-detection of libspeex will fail in the next
upload.

Coordinate with the Release Team.

  Package maintainers
  ---

Try to make your build system as robust and deterministic as
possible, as in, avoid if possible that it produces different
binaries for different sets of installed packages. For example,
explicitly using --with-something will make ./configure fail if it
can't find it, while not specifying it would just result on the
script disabling that part.

Know the output of your ./configure script, and baby-sit new builds
looking for differences. Even better, use the resulting config.h file:
always compare the new one with the previous one. Consider putting it
in the source package, e.g. debian/config.h.prev, so that NMUers can
benefit from it too. (I don't think this has been proposed before, and
makes absolute sense to me.)

Run debdiff.

  Inactive package maintainers
  

Know your limitations, and file RFH/RFA/O bugs as appropriate. Just
welcoming NMUs is not enough, since then you rely on the MIA people
discovering someday that your package is unmaintained.

  NMUers
  --

Read the whole list of bugs for the package before you upload, not
only the ones you'll be fixing. See above under Library maintainers
for an example of this being useful.

Subscribe to the PTS of the package. This way, you'll become aware
of any new bugs you've accidentally introduced (as the mentioned
#306809).

Run debdiff. Twice.

  The casual -devel reader
  

If you see a message about an important issue not being handled, try
to do something about it. Think whom could you forward it to: the
maintainer, the latest uploaders, the maintainers of related
packages, an specific mailing list or IRC channel. It's all about
finding a developer that will care.

If you know that a maintainer is

 For etch we will update the toolchain (glibc, binutils,
 linux-kernel-headers, gcc) again.  Some updates look easy, other will
 have a bigger impact on packages.  One aspect of the toolchain update
 is the change of the C++ ABI from version 1 (102) to version 2 (1002)
 of the GNU C++ compiler.
 
 How is it going to affect the compatibility between Debian and Ubuntu?
 As I understand it, Ubuntu has started to move to G++ 4.0 without any
 synchronisation with the Debian toolchain maintainers.

I think that no Ubuntu action should matter when we are about Debian
quality.

 The problem is that the decisions are always taken for the Ubuntu

 being lead by Canonical, and always lagging behind.

I know i'm going to regret saying this, but someone has to lead the way.
if none of the current Debian developers step up to the task, someone
else has to. This has nothing to do with canonical or ubuntu for that
matter. This applies to all projects and businesses out there.


 Actually, you can just look at what happens and see this is already
 the case. Many packages in Debian are lagging behind Ubuntu, and 
 Ubuntu-specific patches are not forwarded to Debian maintainers, 
 regardless of the declarations.

This would be because the Ubuntu developers are rather afraid of doing a
full scale patch distribution to debian developers due to the fact that
some developers have already declared that they do not want these
patches. This is a huge problem for the ubuntu developers as some people
insist on getting the patches automatically, some don't care either way
and others are angered by people meddling with their packages and don't
want the patches.

My question to you is: what would you do? How would you solve this problem?

The patches are out there, you can fetch them. If you want your patches,
contact ubuntu developers and ask for them. I'm sure they are happy to
give their patches to your packages and embrace your suggestions.
Collaboration is the way, not hostility!

 You can also see that the only architectures supposed not to be
 dropped from testing in the Vancouver proposal are the architectures
 Ubuntu supports. Is it a coincidence? I'd like to think so.

I don't thing it is a coincidence! I even think that it is a straight
consequence of ubuntu's influence. But not because they say it should be
kept, it's because they work on it too. They provide patches, do
autocompilation and testing on the packages. That in turn helps the
archs in Debian too. In the proposal there was a clear outline of what
archs should be kept, it's not a coincidence that those archs happen to
be the same popular architechtures that ubuntu ships for.

There is no conspiracy, Debian is not being taken over.

 I'm not saying that for this particular decision, it wasn't the right
  thing to do. I'm questioning the independence of the project as a
 whole for important technical decisions. Debian has always been
 superior because we used to take the time to evaluate solutions and
 keep the best one, technically speaking. If we merely follow Ubuntu,
 decisions won't be only based on technical merits, but also on
 political and economical ones.

Lately i've failed to see those evaluations, everyone just work for
their own benefit. There are just a handful of groups that work towards
a common goal. GNOME and KDE teams to name some. Others mostly work just
with their own package.

Even though i don't like the Vancouver proposal, i see the issues it
addresses. One of the issues being the fact that Sarge would never be
ready for release if the unmaintained architechtures weren't dropped.
Other issue would be the lack of guidelines. The proposal gives one
guideline: How to get your favourite Architecture supported in a release.

As for the C++ transition, i was given the impression when i first saw
the proposal was that Ubuntu developers asked for the approval of this
proposal from the debian developers. And with a little work, i can find
references to the transition on debian lists that propose the same
scheme that ubuntu is now using, before they began using it.

Personally i feel that Debian Developers should put their jealousy
aside, burry the hatchet and start collaborating with the other
developers out there, not just ubuntu. Besides, you have given your work
out to the public for anyone to use, anyone to modify, anyone to create
derivates from. Why not try and benefit from that symbiosis.

We don't necessarily need separate bug tracking systems, but in order to
share a bug tracking system, the system would need to make it convenient to
work in the context of a particular distribution (e.g., for a Debian
developer to avoid seeing Ubuntu-specific bugs in query results).

I don't think there exists a bug tracking system which meets this need
today, which is why Canonical is developing a bug tracking system which is
designed to meet the needs of open source projects collaborating with each
other on common code bases (Malone).

What is the kernel-tree-2.6.8-16 package? Or is this an abbreviation

kernel-source version 2.6.8-16?

  N-gram is when you use n-characters as a 'word'.
  
  In some languages including Japanese, it is impossible to

  'word' as n-characters.
 
 Do you mean N number of characters, or is there some special
 meaning to an n-character?

I mean N number of characters, yes.

Instead of picking up keywords through whitespace-separated 'word's, 
it uses pre-set N number of characters for indexing.

 Oh, great. I forgot that Canonical's business model is to use Ubuntu as
 an upstaging area for Debian, so that we're always lagging behind.

The outline for this C++ transition was run past debian-release@ well
before anything happened in Ubuntu, precisely to avoid painful
desynchronisation between the two distributions, and to make sure that
everyone could have a say before anything happened in either
distribution. The people doing the work were pretty much the same people
who did the work last time, anyway; I can't see how you'd do a C++
transition without having, say, the lead gcc maintainer involved ...

In mid-April, very little active development was happening on Ubuntu due
to conference timings, so it's likely that the transition would have
taken place in Debian first if we hadn't been in the middle of a deep
freeze (which thank God is finally coming to a close). The Ubuntu
development team took the decision not to wait, because it was clearly
better to make the change as close to the beginning of a release cycle
as possible in order to have as much time as possible to clean up any
resulting problems. This had nothing to do with fictional business
models and everything to do with straightforward practical release
management.

 You are assuming that everyone has been paying close attention to Ubuntu
 and it's activities.  While I have the impression that many Debian senior
 developers are involved with it, I can name only one who I am sure is and
 one who I am sure isn't.

Not everyone. Just the people who fly off the handle and make fairly
mean-spirited accusations. I see some of the merit to what he's saying: 
that we shouldn't become beholden to Canonical. But claiming that the
Canonical employees are trying to destroy Debian is just being excessively
harsh. These same people are Debian Developers who care deeply about the
project, and I can imagine how they feel seeing these kinds of flames.

A constructive thread is going on elsewhere on this list for mediating the
problems between Ubuntu and Debian, and I'd rather see more of that. This
sort of thing is just the usual stuff that's harmful to the project and
hateful to its own constituents.

 Steve In light of the announcement at the beginning of May that

 Steve idea for any DSAs issued over these holes to include
 Steve mention of the relevant kernel versions for i386 etc., so
 Steve that users who have upgraded earlier know that they need to
 Steve upgrade and reboot.

 I think it would also be a good idea if the change log in the
 kernel-image package could mention any DSAs fixed...

 The changelog I have says:

 --- cut ---

 I guess I am expected to cross reference this with the changelog of
 the kernel-source package.

Yeah, at this point that's the process.

 What is the kernel-tree-2.6.8-16 package? Or is this an abbreviation
 for kernel-tree-2.6.8 version 2.6.8-16? Does this imply
 kernel-source version 2.6.8-16?

$ apt-cache show kernel-tree-2.6.8

 Again, I think it would be much quicker, easier, and less prone to
 errors if the DSAs where mentioned in the relevant kernel-image-change
 too.

It would be prone to errors from kernel-image uploaders who aren't actually
keeping track of what has been fixed in the kernel source; at least if
there's an expectation that you have to look at the kernel-source, you
always know where you stand.  You could try cooking up some magic to
automatically incorporate particular changelog snippets in kernel-image, but
there's also the possibility of arch-specific security issues, so...

Re: Canonical and Debian

2005-06-05 Thread Michael K. Edwards
On 6/5/05, Steve Langasek [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
 You can either step up and make sure the
 architectures you care about are in good shape for etch, or you can be a
 whiny brat expecting everything to be handed to you on a silver platter and
 accusing people of being members of a Canonical-controlled cabal when they
 do you the courtesy of informing you about their personal priorities for
 etch.  Your choice.

I am no fan of the Vancouver proposal, but Steve's got a point. 
Ensuring that packages build and run properly on a wide variety of
architectures is _work_.  I happen to think that it's worthwhile work,
and that it's the main factor that sets Debian apart from all the rest
and directly contributes to the superior quality of Debian relative to
other distros.  But if it isn't spread across a large number of
people, it's a crushing burden, and no one has a right to ask the
release team to shoulder it.

The mirror network is not the big issue, as I see it; I care more
about the question of whether the build procedures have adequate
conditional logic to handle the presence/absence of a native-code
compiler for language X, the existence or lack of an assembly-language
implementation of core routine Y, etc.  As I have argued previously,
the diversity of architectures is the best available proxy for the
evolution of platforms over time, and the packages which have a hard
time building on all arches are precisely those which it's a struggle
to maintain for the duration of a release cycle.

Steve's also right that buildds that have non-zero queue depths for
non-trivial lengths of time tend to expose fragility in build and
run-time dependencies, and so they get stuck in ugly ways that need
release team (or porter) attention.  So either Debian collectively is
willing to labor to maintain a high standard of portability and
stability, or we need to focus on a few arches and ignore
bugs-in-principle that don't happen to break on those systems.  I know
which one I'd like to see, but I have to admit that I have done a
lousy job of following through so far on things that I could help with
myself.  But at least I don't go around blaming the people who are
actually doing the work.  :-/
