Bootloader

[ontracktowin]

Hi,

I have no experience in linux.

I installed debian 11 with the bootloader.

I can't boot up another live usb now (ie manjaro, pure).

I can only boot up ubuntu and TAILS.

I could boot up manjaro and pure before.

I need to change the bootloader to allow the live usb boot.

Mike

Hi ,If an update is on only testing and unstable branch ,then that means
that those updates are not yet ready for stable branch and must be in
testing phase where the code and optimised and stabilized for public use
after days of testing

That message was actually hidden behind all that unfriendlyness. I
totally missed it.

Updates for the stable branch are updated after the point release and for
security updates there are security.debian.org and bullseye-security. And
you can subscribe to the list if you want from debian-security.
In the case of Chromium, it is up to date with security updates and there is
no reason for its protests.

Version of Chromium and Firefox ESR available on Stable (Re: Chromium on Debian 11)

[Charles Plessy]

Hi all,

Maybe we can all cool down and focus on the take home message:

"packages.debian.org misleads users about which version of major
browsers are available in Stable"

On my side, I had the exact same problem with Firefox ESR.

So if there is somebody who is familiar with the code running behind
packages.debian.org, proposing a fix to the admins would be, in my
opinion, very helpful for our users.

Have a nice Sunday,

Charles

Perhaps you should fire your translator, then. He (?) is extremely

You know Marc, if you respond badly to people for a reason that is yours,
don't be surprised if they show their displeasure in one way or another.

My post is trying to bring your attention to a major issue, nothing more,
if you're too tired take a vacation, but respect my request and make sure
to fix issues of Chromium on Debian Stable updates that aren't sufficient
as it is.

I've never been told the remark you echo, and anyway I don't have problems,
it's Chromium in its state in the Stable branch which will potentially pose
a very big security problem for all those who use it.

My style is that of google translate...He is as he is...

Your patches come out 1/2 month too late in Debian Stable, it makes your
work in Debian Stable useless and I doubt you have many users using a
Debian Experimental based distribution... Now if you don't want to
questioning yourself and your volunteer working group to bring more
security to Debian Stable and its users, you are unwittingly scuttling the
entire Debian project and pushing people to switch to, for example,
ArchLinux.

I would have tried to make you aware of it, I will not do it again x times,
I will simply migrate to another OS if you remain in this situation or the
apps such as Chromium are not seriously updated enough, which I do not
don't find it satisfactory, like a lot of other Linux users. Afterwards, if
you need help to do the job, you have to ask for it instead and always try
to do better rather than leave things as they are...

Replying public to a private message is considered very bad style.
Please don't do that in the future.

Your messages appear to me as demanding and unfriendly. I would be
offended by them even if you were my paying customer (which you are
not). Please consider working on you style.

In the past, you have been pointed out that debian-project is not the
correct list for your issues, why do you keep coming here?

Greetings
Marc

Hi,

Forgive me but your answer is off topic, my e-mail is not bossy but it
surely points the finger at the biggest security gap in Debian...

It's good to do voluntary work, it's even better to do it in a safe and
secure way for the users, otherwise your work is useless.

I'm sure I'm not the first to point this out to you and ask you to question
yourself, you yourself should know there's a problem, even if you don't
tell me don't confess directly.

I hope you will question this for the benefit of all Debian users !!!
Security updates, especially web browsers, should be published without
delay, because these security failures are already being exploited by
hackers ;-(

Apart from that if you have a problem with Gmail, it's only up to you...

Regards.

You shouldn't use packages.debian.org as it doesn't know about
stable-security.

Chromium on Debian 11

[phil995511 -]

Hello,

Chromium is on version 99 on Debian 11 Stable :

bullseye (stable) (web): navigateur web
99.0.4844.74-1~deb11u1: amd64 arm64 armhf i386
https://packages.debian.org/search?suite=default=all=any=fr=names=chromium

2 highlest security updates have been released since.

The Testing and Unstable branches each get one of these 2 updates
(100.0.4896.88-1 & 100.0.4896.127-1), but not Stable (99.0.4844.74-1) !?!

Debian 11 Stable users are exposed to these major security flaws.

They risk having important confidential information stolen, whether their
computer systems are hacked remotely ;-(

Your solution of pushing browser updates first through Unstable, then
through Testing and finally pushing them to the Stable branch more than a
1/2 month later has the consequence that you leave your Debian Stable users
become potential victims of hackers.

This way of doing things is wrong and needs to be changed urgently for the
good of Debian Stable users !!!

You must immediately publish all new updates to the Stable branch,
immediately after they have been released !!!

The current situation just makes you want to abandon Debian for a
distribution with better monitoring of updates...

Regards.
