Re: Managing package sources with subversion?
Joey Hess wrote: - cvs2svn works ok, but can be _very_ slow. Be prepared for significant archive bloat too. I also had to run it three times due to some subversion bug that I have supressed memory of. I didn't bother importing all the history of tn5250 from CVS into Subversion. The old changes are still in CVS if I need them. [snip] - After I imported mooix into subversion, I went back and de-munged all the tags generated by cvs-buildpackage. cvs has limits on tag names (no periods allowed) so you probably have ugly tags like debian_version_1_01 and so on. You can use svn mv, pointed directly at the repo, to rename these tags to debian_version_1.01 or whatever you feel is appropriate. I eventually decided that there was no particular reason to use the tags directory for Debian versions, and created a new debian directory: % svn ls file:///home/repos/debian/tn5250 branches/ debian/ tags/ trunk/ vendor/ % svn ls file:///home/repos/debian/tn5250/debian 0.16.5-1/ 0.16.5-2/ 0.16.5-3/ 0.16.5-4/ 0.16.5-5/ % svn ls file:///home/repos/debian/tn5250/vendor 0.16.5/ current/ The branches and tags directories are both empty. [snip] Or you can use subversion's nice fast export command to get a clean export without the .svn directories and build in there. Note that svn export copies the tree, including any uncommitted changes, which is both good and bad. You can use it while offline. I'm probably going to switch to using this technique. Ooh, I missed this option for svn export. Thanks. -- Hanging is too good for a man who makes puns; he should be drawn and quoted. -- Fred Allen

I see you have only one upstream version. Any experience with importing and/or merging new upstream sources? No; there hasn't been an upstream release since I imported this into Subversion, and I haven't tested it with previous versions. The procedure described in the book looks straightforward: use svn_load_dirs to update a checked-out current, or do it manually, tag it by copying vendor/current to vendor/upstream, and use svn merge to copy the new changes from vendor/upstream into trunk. -- Hanging is too good for a man who makes puns; he should be drawn and quoted. -- Fred Allen

Re: /tmp exploits
Ian Jackson [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: We should modify our libc so that opening a file in /tmp or /var/tmp - determined by simple string comparison of the filename passed to open(2) - fails if O_CREAT is specified without O_EXCL. You also need to check whether the current directory is /tmp, or a symlink to it (like /usr/tmp). A simpler way would be to check against a umask like ((st_mode 01007) == 01007) for the parent directory. There's probably a race condition here, though. We should do this in slink. That way almost any program with a /tmp security hole will stop working straight away and _have_ to be fixed. How about something like fakeroot? Anyone who wants to test /tmp programs can start the window manager and/or shells with it, and identify problems quickly, although not in setuid programs.

x3270 copyrights
I'm taking the x3270 package over from Dirk Eddelbuettel. The only big thing left to fix is the copyrights on it, which mean it have to in non-free. I'm including the copyrights below, with my take on them, and I'd appreciate if anyone could comment on them. These are from the Lineage.gz file in the package. First there's the main copyright from the current and previous authors. This looks fine to me. } Here is the official copyright notice for x3270 3.1: } } Modifications Copyright © 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997 by Paul } Mattes. } Original X11 Port Copyright © 1990 by Jeff Sparkes. } Permission to use, copy, modify, and distribute this software and } its documentation for any purpose and without fee is hereby } granted, provided that the above copyright notice appear in all } copies and that both that copyright notice and this permission } notice appear in supporting documentation.

Note that x3270 doesn't strictly need any different fonts (it can use any fixed width font), but it looks much better with them. There are copyrights from NCD and MIT for another font and a widget respectively, which are both very similar to other accepted copyrights, such as the Sun/MIT copyright in xlockmore. For the most recent version, I think, a small piece of code and some other data was included, and that adds this copyright, which doesn't allow anything.

Re: packages.debian.org qmail (was Re: Using CVS for package development)
Philip Hands [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: [snip] That seems simple enough. I think your best bet is this: 1) make sure control/locals does not contain packages.debian.org But make sure it's in control/rcpthosts, of course. add this line to control/virtualdomains: packages.debian.org:alias-packages create ~alias/.qmail-packages-default, containing: |forward `/usr/local/bin/pkg2maint $EXT2` I would prefer |forward `/usr/local/bin/pkg2maint $EXT2` for security. write /usr/local/bin/pkg2maint, which is a program that takes a package name, and puts the maintainers e-mail address on its STDOUT. The only extra thing to have pkg2maint do is output an address that will cause the mail to bounce if the maintainer cannot be found ([EMAIL PROTECTED] might work) A better way to bounce when a maintainer is not found would be to do something like |/usr/local/bin/pkgforward $EXT2 where pkgforward execs qmail's forward if a maintainer is found, or prints unknown package or maintainer not found as appropriate and returns 100. If you've got 1000 or so spare inodes, you could just make a ~alias/.qmail-package-packagename for each package, containing [EMAIL PROTECTED] or whatever. If packages.debian.org is really master.debian.org, you could use users/assign to map packages-packagename to maintername. If you don't want to worry about unescaping the various formats of email addresses, add the appropriate Resent-... and Delivered-To: (from DTLINE) headers, set some env. vars and pipe the resulting message into qmail-inject, telling it to get its recipients from the message headers. I could probably be persuaded to write this... :-) -- Carey Evans * [EMAIL PROTECTED] Lies, damn lies, and computer documentation. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

Re: ssh and default home directory permissions (revisited?)
Philip Hands [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: You can make ssh accept group writable home dirs by changing a line in /etc/ssh/sshd_config: StrictModes yes needs to be changed to StrictModes no Unfortunately this also allows world writable home dirs. Group writable home dirs are usually OK with Debian: % ls -ld ~ drwxr-xr-x 45 careycarey3072 May 26 21:07 /home/carey ^ I've removed group write permissions from my home dir because of the programs like qmail and ssh which don't like it. I don't think anything would break because of removing these permissions, so maybe adduser should make home directories mode 755 (or 750)? -- Carey Evans * [EMAIL PROTECTED] Lies, damn lies, and computer documentation. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

Re: Perl issues
Raul Miller [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Don't let this slow down your work, but: one thing I've been itching for is a mechanism for CPAN installation to interoperate with the Debian package manager. This is a pretty broad project, and to do it right you'd probably have to get the CPAN and Diety folks talking to each other, just to define the interface. I've been thinking about this for a while, but never actually done anything... It seems to me that we could have an ExtUtils::MM_Debian which is almost the same as MM_Unix but helps to create a Debian package. It could either insert appropriate targets in the generated Makefile (make binary) or generate an appropriate debian/ directory (debian/rules binary). Normal users could generate local Debian packages or maintainers could generate official binary releases (like kernel-package can). It would be very nice to be able to do things like tar zxvvf File-Sync-0.05.tar.gz cd File-Sync-0.05 perl Makefile.PL debian/rules binary dpkg -i ../perl-file-sync_0.05-local.1_i386.deb and have a properly installed package. -- Carey Evans * [EMAIL PROTECTED] Encryption renamed to Encode to avoid US regulation problems - include/linux/wireless.h in Linux 2.0.30 kernel -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
