After my last attempts to rebuild the archive (using rebuildd) on powerpc, I've faced that given this, lots of packages now FTBFS. ie. dpkg-shlibdeps: failure: No dependency information found for libecalendar_common_conduit.so (used by debian/evolution/usr/lib/evolution/2.12/conduits/libetodo_conduit.so). dh_shlibdeps: command returned error code 512 make: *** [binary-predeb-IMPL/evolution] Error 1 dpkg-buildpackage: failure: fakeroot debian/rules binary gave error exit status 2 So, how should we expect buildds to behave after this change?

Orphaning my packages
Hello, I'll be taking a long vacation of Debian and free software activity for the next couple of months for personal reasons. Because of that, I'm orphaning my non-comaintained packages. I really think those packages shouldn't make it to Etch with a non attending maintainer, just like I'm beginning to become (I already orphaned some of them in the last couple of months). Once I get more free time or motivation to work on my packages, I'll be coming back, but since that's not the case now, I'm stepping back for a while so I don't interfere with the project. If you think you could adopt some of the packages, feel free to do it (filling an ITA would be nice). Just talk to the Debian Perl Group first, if thinking on adopting some of the Perl modules; talk first to the pkg-ruby-extras groups if thinking on adopting some of the ruby modules, also. mozilla-firefox-locale-all is being co-maintained by Luk Claes, I think he will know what to do with this important package. Here is the list: http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=damog&comaint=no Only those under 'main' are the ones up for adoption, the other ones are, obviously, NMUs, backports or sponsored, which are of course, responsibility of their own maintainers. After a couple of weeks, I'll be filling O wnpp bugs for the remaining packages. Take well care of them, please. CC me in any case, if needed.

It is quite often to get your passport sealed while leaving your country but it is supposed to be mandatory to get the seal in the country you are arriving, otherwise you could be thought you are an illegal alien since no local official government dependency testifies you are arriving the country legally.

I _really_ second this idea. After having a previous key compromised, I'm trying to get more security wrt handling everything around my current key. I brought my Mexican passport to the KSP since I don't want to explain to everybody what my Mexican voting card is (and I didn't want people to doubt on it, as I did to locals in Porto Alegre and Helsinki). Bringing my passport issued by the Mexican government, sealed by some of the countries I have visited; bringing my US tourist visa, issued by the American government; having my Mexican voting card (which is official in MX); and any other non-official ID I could carry (driver's license, university card, work ID, etc) are documents I thought it would be great to have so nobody could doubt that I am the person I am saying I am :-) Because of this, I always requested for passports to check everybody's identity. I'm a bit upset also because some people think I should already know some documents. When I saw madduck's ID I asked what that was and then requested for the passport (he then explained me his evil experiment, which I found quite silly at first, but I didn't care too much since I was quite happy after seeing his *real* passport ID). I don't like the people who think I should already know everything around the world. I came also to a couple of persons who were only holding European IDs. When I requested for the official passport they even got mad replying "this is completely official and legal in Germany!" (I remember one of these guys was German). People shouldn't assume everybody knows customs of all around the world. As an additional bit of security, I asked some people to show their visa, issued by the Mexican government, or check the Mexican seal they got on their point of entrance to Mexico. After all, I trust a bit more some of my federal authorities. It is disappointing to see that some of us are doing lots of preparation to have a more or less nice and trustable KSP and some people just don't give a shit or care about anything around it. -- David Moreno Garza <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | http://www.damog.net/ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | GPG: C671257D El rock nació conmigo. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Well, actually the wnpp bugs are probably the dirtiest part on the BTS: Understanding dirtiest as unattended, abandoned bugs and petitions. Most of the people working on the wnpp bugs has this concern: If nobody cares about a request or an intention to work, over a package, it should be closed, read the backlog to understand this point of view. In an example for this, I could say that I'm strongly against repeated ITPs and merged with the first one reported since they are most of the times useful and full of junk and should be closed. In this sense, this could work since people *really* interested on the ITPs and RFPs would be visible when reopening the bugs. If they don't care about the bugs they requested or were trying to package, well, it really should be closed, nobody will ever care. And just in case someone really cares, they'll file a bug, having 365 days to make it real and not overload garbage on the BTS. -- David Moreno Garza <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | http://www.damog.net/ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | GPG: C671257D "Pues aquí, echando la weba: Es la vida del filósofo". -Polo

Talking with adn on IRC, I've decided to launch an script that will close every opened ITP and RFP bug on the BTS with a lifetime greater than 600 days by tonight (or if anything goes wrong -I have an exam tomorrow noon-, by tomorrow night). I'll point to documentation on how to re-open bugs, if the submitters/owners still have interest on the package. I'll do the same a couple of days later for ITPs/RFPs greater than 450 days and finally with those greater than 365 days. Later I'll set a cronjob on gluck to close all of those reaching 365 days old. All this will stall a bit the work to be done by the wnpp-tagging team :) Just a couple of days, probably. Or you could just start tagging from the recent ones. If somebody has something to say about this, please speak now.

Actually, the same for me, almost. I have been in the whole NM process for more than 13 months now. I spent around 6 months with my AM, around another 6 to be approved by the DAM and I'm waiting now, since a month ago, for my account to be created. Yes, I also know some people have had longer times. The thing that makes me feel uncomfortable is how Debian cannot encourage people for helping the project with this. Motivation probably just leaves with the long time waiting (in my case, there is nothing else on my hands to do). People just loses faith. It is sad to see the process is more a matter of time, than capacity or work done, experience. And well, right now I feel so close but also so far, because of the uncertainty, to conclude my process. -- David Moreno Garza <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | http://www.damog.net/ Those who can't write, write help files.
