Re: gcc-defaults, gcc-3.3, gcc-3.4 for testing
Hi Matthias, On Sat, Mar 26, 2005 at 01:50:02PM +0100, Matthias Klose wrote: gcc-3.3 and gcc-3.4 were addressed in http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2005/03/msg00027.html the gcc-3.3 changes (compared to -8) include two m68k specific fixes concerning wrong generation of code, and one hppa64 related update (PR19697). more on the other noise in the update in a separate message. Does in a separate message mean there's more information about these changes coming? the interesting gcc-3.4 changes (compared to -6), affecting libgcc1, include an update of libunwind to version 0.98.4 (Fix a typo in _ReadSLEB.c which caused hangs when throwing exceptions from Intel ICC-compiled programs). All other changes relate to binary packages, which are not used by default. gcc-3.4 approved. gcc-defaults, currently in incoming, not yet built for arm, adds a new convenience package libgcj-dev, which makes dependencies for depending packages easier to manage. Packages using gcj -C (byte compiling) should (build-)depend on gcj, packages compiling to native code, should (build-)depend on libgcj-dev. surprised by the speed this new binary package entered unstable, it should go to testing as well not to block other packages now depending on it. Also approved. Thanks, -- Steve Langasek postmodern programmer signature.asc Description: Digital signature
Re: suggestions for packages to force to testing for security fixes

Also pushed in, now that it's built on m68k and I've had a chance to look at 301428. Packages that are frozen: netkit-telnet 0.17-28 needed, have 0.17-26 for DSA-697-1 0.17-27 consisted of misc other changes, but 0.17-28 only fixed the security hole (which is quite a bad one) 0.17-29 is tentatively approved; still needs to age and get built everywhere. -- Steve Langasek postmodern programmer signature.asc Description: Digital signature
init.d script dependencies for etch?
The traditional way of ordering init.d scripts is to have two-digit numbers for the symlinks in /etc/rc*d directories. It seems pretty clear to me that a dependency based scheme would work better here. Switching from one to the other could, I think, be done gradually, given sufficient magic and hair, but it is a big change that is going to touch a great many packages. I would like to work on making this happen for etch. I don't have an implementation yet, let alone a plan for how to do it, and I won't start work until after sarge is released, so this is just a heads-up for the release team. Anyone who wants to tell me this is a really bad idea, or has suggestions on the implementation, please mail me in private or take this thread to -devel. Thanks. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
mimedefang should go into sarge
Hi folks, for no 36 days there is a version of mimedefang which fixes an important bug. Through a wrong patch it was searching for on of its configuration files in the wrong location.

PostgreSQL stalled [was: Re: Release update: debian-installer, kernels, infrastructure, freeze, etch, arm]
Hi Debian Release team! Andreas Barth [2005-04-01 15:48 +0200]: In the meantime, if you have a release-critical bugfix for sarge that is being held out of testing *only* by a missing arm build, please contact the release team so that we can arrange to push the package in if appropriate. Indeed I have such a package. PostgreSQL failed to build on arm and m68k some 30 days ago due to a broken xserver-common package; I notified the buildd teams about this, m68k is already sorted out now. But it would really be nice to get the sid version into Sarge, I only do bugfixes for some time now. Can you please push this a bit?

Re: please make libkrb53 priority 'standard', since nfs-utils depends on it
According to Steve Langasek: Chip, how are things looking now for nfs-utils? So far, no worries. I remember seeing a new RC bug on it after you sent in your original request. Has that been taken care of? That'd be #294959. I don't recommend fixing it for sarge, as a fix will involve playing with the boot-up sequence. I'd prefer a don't do that note in the documentation - Don't mark NFSv4 filesystems 'auto' in fstab. -- Chip Salzenberg- a.k.a. -[EMAIL PROTECTED] Open Source is not an excuse to write fun code then leave the actual work to others. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
