Hmm, given your wording I'm wondering if the ifupdown maintainer (CCed) is aware of what seems to be a “plan” (given the project name) to supercede that package? (Otherwise it might have been more corteous to use a different project name?) Thanks, Guillem -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I first heard of them when they proposed a talk for DebConf, but they have never tried to contact me, which seemed a bit strange to me. What I don't understand about this project is the use of Python here: isn't really suitable for this? I was hesitating to use smaller scripting languages and tried to keep the C code as tiny as possible... And now Python. Do we not care about separate /usr any more? -- Cheers, Andrew signature.asc Description: PGP signature

We do not, but neverthless I still do not believe that it would be appropriate to make python have important priority. -- ciao, Marco signature.asc Description: Digital signature

This is common for an internal project being published for the first time. Either, they don't want to clean the internal git history or git wasn't used during the development. -- /* * For moronic filesystems that do not allow holes in file. * We may have to extend the file. */ 2.4.0-test2 /usr/src/linux/fs/buffer.c signature.asc Description: PGP signature
