I have some more oddities to add. When I set RESOLV_HOST_CONF=/etc/shadow and run "fping debian.org" I don't get /etc/shadow displayed. Even running it with a +s strace doesn't work. But when I use "sudo fping ..." I get /etc/shadow displayed (which shouldn't be such a big hole in that case). I too tried it with potato.

Non-Debian Debian Packages (maelstrom and libsdl)
Hi! I just came across some strange debs on http://www.devolution.com/~slouken/SDL/download-1.0.html and http://www.devolution.com/~slouken/Maelstrom/binary.html I downloaded and extraced them. They aren't policy compliant and contain evil dependencies. e.g. the maelstrom package has this: Depends: sdl1(>=3D1.0) sdl1 isn't a official Debian package it should be libsdl1. As I'm the maintainer of maelstrom I'm rather concerned. I will now contact this "maintainer".

Hi! Someone mentioned the youth hostel at Hochspeyer. I know it. It is rather big and Hochspeyer has railroad connection to Kaiserslautern. Maybe I can also get a car to assist Thimo with transporting if someone wants to stay in Heidelberg (we have a youth hostel too, I can't offer sleeping place, sorry).
