    Alexander helped our removal tool to gain a new option. From now on
    we can close bugs associated to a package when doing a sourceful
    removal. Obviously this is not enabled by default, but an option we
    have to select whenever appropriate (not all removals mean all bugs
    can be closed, like when its just a source rename), but this can
    greatly help the QA team.
 Will you also do the converse? unarchive and reopen appropriate bugs
 (based on the version tree) when a source package is reintroduced into
 the archive? Often a package gets orphaned and people who are
 interested in it don't notice until it gets removed from the archive
 and they then work on getting it re-uploaded.

No we wont, as this does not happen very often actually and is much more
unreliable than closing them. But what we will change is the removals
log entry to additionally have all the bug numbers listed which we
closed.

 21. untag pending bugs if a package is rejected
    As the bugs fixed in packages in the NEW queue are currently
    (semi-) automatically taged pending, Jan Hauke Rahm suggested to
    untag them, if a package get's rejected from NEW.  There's already
    a patch floating arround, which needs to be reviewed and merged.
 I assume you will also take over automatically adding pending tags to
 packages in NEW?

If someone patches that into the tools, yes.

Fwd: get.debian.net installing gNewsomething instead of Debian

2010-09-25 Thread Frank Bauer
So, it has been almost half a year and what has happened?
Nothing, the page http://get.debian.net still installs gNewsense.

Could you *please* point it to the official Debian win32-loader?

Thank you,
Frank

Hi,

yesterday I came across an older laptop that I wanted to upgrade from
Windows XP to Debian testing.

Since the CD drive went south, I had the only option to use the
installation directly from Windows.
So I went to the usual http://get.debian.net, used the win32 instaler
loader from the first link there, but instead of Debian it started to
install gNewsense.

Nice All Fools Day joke, but unfortunately off by 10 days.

Regards,
Frank

I've been a bit silent about this. Maybe I find some time today.
Unfortunately, it's still python last time I checked. :)

Anyways, I'll have a look into adding pending tags as well.

Best direct such questions at the maintainer of the site (CCed).
