parted unblock, and upcoming transition
Could parted 1.8.8.git.2009.07.19-6 be unblocked, please? It's needed to smooth the path for parted 2.2 in the near future. Speaking of which, I would like to upload parted 2.2 to unstable (it's currently in experimental) once 1.8.8.git.2009.07.19-6 reaches testing. The reason to try to get this into squeeze is that without it we won't properly support Advanced Format (i.e. 512-byte logical sectors) hard drives, which are becoming increasingly common. There is an ABI transition involved, among the following source packages (maintainers CCed): devicekit-disks fatresize gnu-fdisk gparted libvirt partconf partitioner partitionmanager partman-base pyparted qtparted udisks I believe that all of these are trivial matters of changing build-dependencies, with the exception of fatresize which needs a fix to its configure script as well (already done upstream); some of these packages already had appropriate or nearly-appropriate versions in experimental, last I checked. We might want to let devicekit-disks/udisks get into testing first, but after that's done, would it be convenient to the release team and to the other maintainers CCed here to start this transition? I can supervise it, upload the d-i parts and the QA-maintained qtparted directly, and file bugs with patches as necessary for the others.

zbar 0.8+dfsg-4 MIGRATED to testing
FYI: The status of the zbar source package in Debian's testing distribution has changed. Previous version: 0.8+dfsg-3 Current version: 0.8+dfsg-4 -- This email is automatically generated once a day. As the installation of new packages into testing happens multiple times a day you will receive later changes on the next day.

I got two lintian warnings about the *-config programs not having man pages but it's pretty minor thing. It's also not exactly new since ncurses-config never had a manpage… Probably look at the pkg-config man page and use that. Thomas, would you accept an ncurses-config manpage if we provide one? yes (license-compatible, etc). I just overlooked it, since it does have a --help, etc. Thanks for providing the manpage(s) now, but there is a little problem. At least in out-of-tree builds (like in the Debian package), ncurses*-config.1 does not get installed when running make install because (like terminfo.5) it is in the build tree and not in $(scrdir), but man/Makefile.in does not take this into account. thanks (will fix...) -- Thomas E.

Bug#119888: Sources....
In official changelog http://www.acme.com/software/thttpd/#releasenotes there is no notice about it. Where is the source of this change?
