Has it become technically and/or socially easier to get access to
wannabuild? I remember that rejection or "no answer" is the usual
reaction to a wannabuild access request even for architectures that
are in trouble.

That wouldn't handle removing (some of) them between 2 versions of a
package. This would be possible with specially crafted .diversions files
but you possibly never get away with old diversions, and bloat the
.diversions files. OTOH, doing it at dpkg level is just simpler from the
maintainer POV.

Sounds to me like a job for a 'dh_diversions' script, and
'debian/packagename.diversions' files in the source package.  Or maybe
a 'dh_alternatives' that handles both alternatives and diversions,
since they are similar concepts and alternatives are a great deal more

Presumably slave alternatives would be handled by indenting the slave

How to maintain packaging files for multiple distributions in the same tree?

2007-01-24 Thread Øystein Gisnås

Is there a good way to let Maemo-specific packaging files coexist with
Debian unstable files in the upstream tree? Currently there is a
debian/ upstream, but it is Debian unstable specific. Btw tinymail is
not part of the official Debian Archive.

The problem is that of maintaining packages files for several
distributions in the same tree, preferably by using diff techniques
between them.

1) apply the patch

  - also it fixes the ICONV_10646 undefined issue

2) build the package with:

BTW, there might be a problem running autogen.sh, as some of the m4

around
by manually copying the missing m4 files to /usr/share/aclocal. Ugly,

The patch is not really suitable for non-bora tinymail, but hopefully I

You cannot enable verify_ap_req_nofail unless everything that's going to
do PAM configuration can read the system keytab file.  Most of the screen
savers run as a normal user and can't read the keytab unless it's readable
by the user running the screen saver.

Later versions of pam-krb5 will support configuring it to look at a
different keytab so that you can provide a lower-privilege world-readable
keytab for this purpose.  Until then, you either want to leave the
Kerberos library default, which will verify the tickets if the keytab is
readable and otherwise skip that step, or make the system keytab readable
by any user who may run the screen saver.

For more information, see:



The support alluded to in that bug is already implemented in the upstream
version of pam-krb5, but I also incorporated PKINIT support and the code
has been rather unstable.  I'm holding off upgrading the Debian package
until after the etch release.

You seem to have gotten your answer on the procedure, but your rationale for
upgrading this particular bug is flawed.  The package doesn't render the
system unusable, it's your misconfiguration of PAM that does so.

I've tested gnome-screensaver here and it work fine with this config.

/etc/pam.d/common-auth:
authsufficient  pam_krb5.so ignore_root
authrequiredpam_unix.so try_first_pass nullok_secure

/etc/pam.d/common-account:
account sufficient  pam_krb5.so
account requiredpam_unix.so


Note that the default /etc/pam.d/gnome-screensaver shipped is misleading; it
doesn't mention that this service will query the authorization functions
("acct") in addition to the authorization functions.  You may need to check
there for the source of your authentication problem.

Sounds like you have a way to track the quantity and source of
binary-only uploads. Does it come down to perusal of the upload queue
and/or of wasted builds on the buildds, or is there something nicer,
like a list or graph?

(I'm looking for more data here, becuase I don't currently have enough
for an informed opinion about some of the factors underlying the
approach that you chose to deal with the problems you mentioned. If that
makes any sense..)

update on binary upload restrictions

2007-01-24 Thread James Troup
Hi,

   Summary
   ===

I've done some work in dak to improve the binary upload restrictions
that are currently in place to hopefully reduce some of the collateral
damage that resulted from the initial implementation.  Binary upload
restrictions are now per-suite/component/architecture which means that
uploads to experimental and/or non-free should no longer be affected.
The current restrictions are listed below[1] for reference.


 Why restrictions on binary uploads?
 ===

So there are several reasons why these restrictions have been put in
place:

(o) reproducibility

It's vitally important that packages in our archive can be rebuilt on
our buildds and not require a custom environment or source
modifications or other special treatment.  When they can't, scaled
across as many packages and architectures as we have, it makes the job
of the security team nearly impossible.

The best (and IMO, only) pragmatic way of doing this is to actually
have built them on a real buildd.

(o) logging 

The build logs at buildd.debian.org are invaluable in trying to debug
problematic builds.  Byhand builds and other unofficial builds often
don't send an associated log to buildd.debian.org.

(o) build effort coordination

There's a reason the buildd suite is called 'wanna-build'.  The core
of it, both when Roman first wrote it all those years ago and now, is
the sensible and efficient coordination of builds amongst multiple
build daemons.  Having a random additional build daemon that's not
part of the 'wanna-build' system breaks this and all the advantages it
brings.

(o) emulated/cross-compiled buildd-ing considered potentially harmful

The idea of emulated buildds or cross compiling has been around for a
long time.  Personally I don't think it's a good idea, but that's not
really the point.  The point is that one person should not
unilaterally make the decision that they are or are not OK.  If it's
the consensus of the release managers and the architecture porting
team that they want to use emulated buildds and/or cross compiling, I
absolutely will not stop them from doing so.

---

(Now if at this point, you're thinking about source only uploads,
 please see [*].)


  Why are the current set of restrictions in place?
  =

arm has had restrictions in place ever since Aurelien decided to
unilaterally turn on emulated buildd(s) for arm with no consensus from
the arm porting team or the release managers.  This was problematic
for all the reasons listed above.  Also, fundamentally, arm was not in
trouble release-wise because it lacked build power, but because it
lacked _humans_ willing and able to deal with the failing builds.

alpha has recently had restrictions added because the main alpha
buildd has been down due to relocation[2] for some time now and so, as
a result, the number of byhand builds on random machines has shot up.
Once Goedel is back (tomorrow - apparently) and if the byhand builds
stop, these restrictions could be relaxed.

was originally scheduled only to take a couple of days but was
unavoidably delayed by external factors.




[*]

 Why not move to source only uploads?
 

A question that often comes up when this subject is discussed is 'hey,
I agree about the logging and reproducibility points above, so why not
move to source only uploads so you get those for all binaries?'

So, again, this is not something I personally think is a good idea but
I won't stand in the way of consensus of the Release Managers and the
developer community as a whole.  I think it's a bad idea for two
reasons:

 (a) we don't currently have the buildd infrastructure for this - it
 would require a minimum of 2 (preferably 3) machines dedicated to
 being i386 buildds.  It would also make i386 uploads much more
 sensitive to delays and really require better coverage than one
 human could provide.

 (b) source only uploads are in my experience very often badly tested
 if they're even tested at a

Suggesting new method to handle dpkg diversions

2007-01-24 Thread Goswin von Brederlow
Hi,

I'm CCing debian-devel because many developers might have run into
diversion troubles and might be intrested in this but aren't
subscribed on debian-dpkg. Please reply only there.


Have you ever used dpkg-divert in a package? Ever run into the problem
how to properly remove a diversion on upgrade or remove? In what
script to do it? Limited to which $1 arguments?

To me it seems like diversions are more complicated than they could be
and coupled with the dpkg bug in sarge a nightmare.

What if each package could list all its current diversions in
DEBIAN/diverions (i.e. in the control.tar.gz)? Upon install dpkg would
then add those diversions to its list and removed them on
deinstall. During updates it would add new diversions before unpacking
and remove obsolete diversions after removal of old files.

I think most diversions could be handled this way simplifying the
maintainer scripts and removing the risk of screwing it up. Dpkg would
take care to install/update/remove diversions in the right order and
packages could not leave old diversions behind by mistake.

To implement this there would have to be a way to mark packages as
supporting the DEBIAN/diversions file so dpkg can see if the package
has no diversions or just doesn't follow the new method. I haven't
thought about that part yet.

Thoughts, ideas, comments?
Now tell me I'm nuts.

MfG
Goswin

I thought it was also mentioned in the examples. In all cases, you can
adapt the NFS scripts for samba, or find such scripts on Google.

It is compatible with most GNOME applications and with OOo (with
openoffice.org-gnomevfs). That's less applications than with an
automounter, but it will handle authenticated access.

A cursory glance suggests that code is not actively maintained (no
release since May 2005). That may be the reason the Debian bind
maintainers are reluctant to add this code to the package, they would
have to support it and fix eventual bugs themselves, etc.

Are you willing to handle all bug reports / fixes / ... for this code,
and becoming a comaintainer of bind9 for that purpose? Maybe they
would accept that. Or maybe not. I can't speak for them.

The original poster certainly was not aware of the experimental.debian.net 
site. I have seen it announced on some mailing lists, but not too many sites 
are linking to it, thus it is not easy to find while browsing.

In google:

link:http://www.debian.org -> 90.000 pages
link:http://www.alioth.debian.org -> 10.000 pages
link:http://buildd.debian.org -> 83 pages
link:http://www.buildd.net -> 19 pages
link:http://experimental.debian.net -> 1 page, debian-kernel mailing list 
2005, in a thread not unlike this one.

As a quick solution I suggest to place the experimental.debian.net link more 
visibly at the various buildd-associated sites. 

Many greetings

Steffen

samba network share might be automagically mouted in file system.

share partage on computer machine from domain domaine, with user utilisateur 
shoud be
available in filesystem throw:

/network/samba/domaine/machine/utilisateur/partage/SomeFoldersFromRemoteComputer

In the same way that processes are available with /proc.

The only technical issue I see is when to provide password, and how to
store them.



This is already possible:
  * at the system level using the BSD automounter, see the example
  



in the am-utils package;
  

This seems to works with NFS.
But what's about Samba?

  * in KDE using kioslaves;
  


I do not know it.

  * in GNOME with gnome-vfs.
  
This allows to browse the network, but is not compatible with every 
application. Is it?

Deepak,

I would have been nice if you used report bug and its support for
X-Debbugs-CC to send your ITP to debian-perl. Now I am not able to
comment directly to the bug log, since it is not yet available on
bugs.debian.org.

Your package name is wrong, did you read the perl packaging policy?

Also, You fail to mention the upstream source of the module. Is this the
same as the already packaged libcolor-calc-perl?

It is. The missing packages are FTBFS due to insufficient
build-dependencies. The build-logs for all packages are, as advertised,
on experimental.debian.net.

All packages that can be autobuilt on i386 have been autobuilt, and that
was finished more than a week ago. But nice to hear that "nothing" has
happened.
