sysvinit: moving the contents out of the Essential: yes package?
Hi folks, One issue that has held back adoption of upstart in Debian - or even people trying it out - has been that the upstart package conflicts with sysvinit, which is Essential: yes. This conflict is not accidental; upstart has always been intended as a drop-in replacement for sysvinit, not something that would sit alongside it. In the long term, I think it's clear that we don't want users to have to have multiple init systems on their machines. However, in the short term this conflict has remained much longer than was ever intended - upstart was added with the expectation that the Essential: yes bit would eventually be dropped from sysvinit. The only way to address the Essential conflict for the jessie release seems to be to move the contents of sysvinit to a new package, and make sysvinit a metapackage that depends on an ORed list of the possible providers of /sbin/init. E.g.: Package: sysvinit Essential: yes Pre-Depends: sysvinit-core | upstart | systemd-sysv Package: sysvinit-core Replaces: sysvinit (<< 2.88dsf-44~) It seems to me that this is the correct course of action regardless of which init system we choose to adopt as the default in jessie. I have proposed a patch to implement this change in bug #728566. Do others here agree that this is the correct course of action? Is there another solution I've overlooked for this issue?

(In case you're not aware of,) you can use git remote set-url or edit .git/config directly to change that. Cheers, GUO Yixuan
Bug#730492: RFH: hdf5
Package: wnpp Severity: normal Hello, If someone wants to step in to help on HDF5, he/she is more than welcome. I am planning to maintain it but help is welcome. For example, some tasks which should be done: * fix the git repository (git import-orig ../hdf5_1.8.12.orig.tar.gz fails with conflicts) * package the new upstream release (1.8.12) /!\ in the release 11, the SONAME was wrongly changed to 8 for no real reason. We should check if the 8 is deserved or not. * backport the arm64 ubuntu changes Thanks, Sylvestre -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
