No, that's mistakable from the bug log. In order for the fix to have 
effect on a package (which is going to be built without an install 
prefix and) which build-depends on libflac, the package needs to get 
reconfigured to include libflac's fixed libFLAC.m4.

Freeze exception: autoconf-nonfree 2.67-1

[Russ Allbery]

I see Ben uploaded Autoconf 2.67 during DebConf and it looks like it's
going into squeeze according to the PTS information.  I just uploaded
autoconf-nonfree 2.67-1 to build the corresponding documentation package
(non-free because of GFDL with invariant sections).  Could you please
unblock it for squeeze so that the documentation and software will be
consistent in the squeeze release?

Thanks!

With regard to the package waiting in NEW, this is because the waiting
version builds a debug symbols package, ‘python-coverage-dbg’, which
was not present in the existing ‘python-coverage’ version.

I don't know if this is needed for the Squeeze release goal “Automatic
creation of debug packages for the entire archive”, but it seems at
least in line with that release goal.

Permission to upload new Shorewall point release

[Roberto C . Sánchez]

Greetings RMs,

The Shorewall upstream team was caught off guard by the freeze (I know
that this is a recurring theme).

While the Shorewall team was preparing a new upstream release, we
realize that it is excedingly unlikely that the scope of changes would
be acceptable for a freeze exception.  To that end, Shorewall upstream
has released a new point release (4.4.11.2) that is specifically
intended for Squeeze.

I would appreciate it if permission would be granted to upload this
version for eventual migration to squeeze.  I have attached the
individual compressed diffs (Shorewall upstream releases each component
as a seperate release tarball) and a diffstat that covers all of the
diffs, combined.  Please note that the changes are spread across 5
packages and the bulk of the changes are documentation, releasenotes and
header updates in the man pages.

I have the packages built and am waiting for approval before I upload.

Regards,

-Roberto

festival recommends change: request/advice

[Kumar Appaiah]

Dear Debian Release,

According to #592411, festival need not depend on oss-compat for full
functionality, and it can be made to work with Alsa directly. Keeping
this in mind, I am convinced that I could move oss-compat to
recommends to make life easier for some users.

Keeping in mind that we are in a freeze, would you advise me to make
the change and upload it and request a freeze exception, or would you
like me to postpone the change to squeeze+1?

Thanks!

Kumar

The latest upstream minor release of groovy introduced 3 new
Build-Depends: libjansi-java, libjansi-native-java, and
libhawtjni-runtime-java that have been accepted into unstable recently.
We failed to upload them right before the freeze but I think all 4
packages should be unblocked because:
- they fix the RC bug #580160 and
- for the long term maintainance of groovy in Squeeze it would make

OpenLDAP upload to unstable.

[Matthijs Möhlmann]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hello release team,

First of all, the squeeze frozen status was a bit of a surprise for me.
So the schedule I had for openldap was not so good anymore.

The changes I made in svn:
 - Move to slapd.conf to slapd.d (upgrade path provided and tested)
 - The fix for #589915 (wait until slapd is operational before detaching)

The other changes are not that heavy, adding some translations and
fixing other documentation related to the upgrade from slapd.conf =>
slapd.d configuration style.

Currently we have 2.4.17-2.1 in testing which has a grave bug. Not
really a situation we as team like.

The version in unstable is: 2.4.23-2, this version is currently not
compiled on hurd-i386, mips and sparc, due to dependencies that are not
complete. [1] (I have already file a grave bug against db4.8 to have it
fixed on mips and sparc, AFAIK hurd-i386 is not an official arch to be
released with squeeze)

I have to admit that I am a bit late and this should be done way earlier
this year or perhaps in 2009.

Could you please grant a freeze exception for openldap? (I still need to
upload the -3 version)

Regards,

Matthijs Mohlmann

freeze exception: fossil 2010.08.05.100943-1

[Barak A. Pearlmutter]

Could you please grant a freeze exception for fossil
2010.08.05.100943-1?  It has some correctness/robustness/performance
fixes, and no known issues.

(This version was waiting on sqlite 3.7+ for the WAL features, like
sqlite3_wal_autocheckpoint; a 3.7+ version of sqlite is going into
testing, but only went into unstable a few days ago due to a few
sqlite showstopper bugs that were only just fixed.)

That would be my preference as well.

I'm currently doing a test run to see what, if anything, britney thinks
still needs to be fixed in order to finish the libmodplug transition.
It's taking rather a while though, as the set of packages which end up
being considered for installability checks is rather large.

#585518 appears to be a wishlist change to support an unofficial port,
which wouldn't qualify for an exception on its own.

I'm ambivalent about #579025.  The bug log indicates that it doesn't
actually affect any packages in the archive, as it only occurs when the
install prefix is not overriden; it could break things for people
compiling local flac-using applications.  By your own determination
though, it's only a "normal" bug.

The log for #579025 also suggests that fixing it would require
rebuilding reverse dependencies; is that the case?

Adam

mysql-connector-net-5.0 was removed from unstable, and will be removed from
testing as well. mysql-connector-net has the same version in unstable and
testing. So, you need the freeze-exception because the former version of
semweb used to depend on the removed package, iiuc. If so, the freeze

aide 0.15 in unstable - please consider a freeze exception

[Marc Haber]

Hi,

on Friday, aide upstream released aide 0.15. The upstream changes were
mostly done by by Hannes von Haugwitz, who has also done a lot of work
in aide's Debian packaging recently.

aide 0.15 is already in experimental.

I would like to ask the release team for their kind permission to
upload aide 0.15 to unstable and to allow it to migrate to testing
after the regular migration wait to testing.

The diff between aide_0.14.2 and aide_0.15 seems rather large (around
a megabyte), which is caused by lex and yacc being used to generate
the configuration file parsing code. With the generated parts of the
upstream tarball removed, the diff is about 90 KB large

Yep, the RC bug is 591814 - this freeze exception needs to be granted
for the RC-buggy package that semweb build-depends on to be removed from
testing.

I didn't find any rc bug. Is there any? The debian/changelog mentions only
a minor bug. Is it related to changes in the build-dependencies?

AFAICS, libmodplug transition was waiting for xmms2, which was waiting 
for sqlite3 to be rc-fixed, which happened two days ago. All packages for 
libmodplug's transition are now ready. IMO, we should try to get them in 
Squeeze before starting this transition.

Hi,

Could you please grant a freeze exception to semweb 1.05+dfsg-4? The
current package in Squeeze, 1.05+dfsg-3, has an RC-buggy package which
is now gone in Sid as a build-dep.

There was a time I needed to pass -sa, so I hardcoded in my build script, and
forget to remove it.  Sorry by that.

I re-uploaded it.  debian-release: can you make a free exception for

Planned changes to iceweasel/iceape vs. freeze

[Mike Hommey]

Hi,

I don't remember where I got this idea that the freeze was expected to
happen somewhen late this month, but I was taken by surprise by the
freeze happening already. Anyways, the mozilla packages I take care of
are in a releasable shape already, but there are more changes that I was
planning to do some time this month, or at least for next upstream
releases, scheduled for september 7th. I'll list these below, please
tell me for which I can go forward (hopefully, all ;) )

- Iceweasel and xulrunner are currently two separate source packages,
  sharing the exact same tarball. It is the result of the packages
  history, and it would be better if they were merged, for several
  reasons:
  - It is a maintenance burden.
  - I suspect some stable users are not upgrading xulrunner on their
stable systems, leaving their iceweasel at risk. Having new
iceweasel packages at the same time would allow to force xulrunner
upgrade with dependencies. While this can also be done with the
current split source packages, it adds a lot of work, especially
when there really is no change in the iceweasel package itself.
Currently, only xulrunner is updated in stable-security except when
there are browser-specific changes (which hasn't happened for a
while).
  - It should allow to run browser-specific tests more easily.
  Obviously, only the source packages would be merged. All the resulting
  binary packages would stay the same.
- Improve dh_xulrunner to also gather plugin information to, in the long
  term, help mimic Ubuntu's Xb-Npp-* control fields.
- Add an option to dh_xulrunner to add the appropriate xulrunner package to
  something other than shlibs:Depends.
- Add a /usr/lib/xulrunner-devel symlink to /usr/lib/xulrunner-devel-
- Add links to nspr-config and nss-config in
  /usr/lib/xulrunner-devel-1.9.1/bin/, and possibly some other missing
  files compared to upstream "sdk".
- Apply fix for https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=504766
  (debian bug 591512)
- Apply fix for bug 590040.
- Add local homepages when upgrading and running for the first time,
  instead of the pages on http://mozilla.debian.net/
- Improve or remove the restart popup that shows up when upgrading the
  package. The main problem it is trying to avoid is the impossibility
  to cleanly close iceweasel after an upgrade. I need to test further,
  but there are chances this is really only needed when upgrading
  between major versions. I'm not entirely sure it has a benefit for
  other cases, though apart from one complaint on planet.debian.org, I
  saw no feedback... there are a bunch of known issues with it, like
  with multiple iceweasel windows, or like not activating again when
  the user doesn't want to restart now but the browser is upgraded again
  later.
- Generate the iceweasel branding from upstream unofficial branding. I
  spotted a missing file in the current branding, so this would fix this
  and avoid it happening again in the future.
- Improve the situation with search box icons (those showing up in the
  box on the top right of the UI):
  the main problem is that the icons had to be removed from the source,
  because they are not free. The result is that now, the icons are
  really links to the icons on the original web sites. The problem is
  that the code surrounding this upstream is not adequate for such use,
  and the cache is not persistent enough, and a failure to load the icon
  once results in the icon never been reloaded ever again (except maybe
  after an upgrade)
- Improve the xpcom standalone glue so that it loads the most
  appropriate version instead of the first one it finds that matches the
  criterias.
- Provide a "generic" xulrunner binary, so that one can run
  /usr/bin/xulrunner application.ini instead of /usr/bin/xulrunner-1.x
  application.ini. The most appropriate version would then be used.
- Possibly remove the libmozillainterfaces-java package. It is
  apparently unused, not really maintained upstream (it's even being
  removed from current trunk, in favor of a separate repository if a
  maintainer shows up), and more importantly, not tested.

Please note that most if not all the changes above will be applied
anyways on the 3.6/1.9.2 packages currently in experimental, and
4.0b/2.0b packages in http://mozilla.debian.net/packages.

Other than that, as with previous freeze periods, I'd like new upstream
(minor) releases to be allowed to go through.

Cheers,

Mike

flac_1.2.1-3

[Fabian Greffrath]

Dear Release Team,

the pkg-multimedia team has just uploaded a revised flac_1.2.1-3 
package to unstable. This packages contains fixes for two bugs 
(#579025 and #585518) which unfortunately required an autoreconf of 
the build system. The autoreconf result is applied by means of a 
patch, which makes the interdiff quite huge and is the reasons why I 
haven't attached it to this mail.


How would you like me to proceed convincing you to let this package 
pass through to testing? In order to check the changes step by step, 
you may want to check out the packaging GIT repository:


http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-multimedia/flac.git;a=summary

Best regards,
Fabian

This doesn't make sense as is, as the hurd-i386 build is Installed so
there's nothing to dep-wait.  I've assumed that you meant to include
hurd-i386 in the list of architectures to binNMU and scheduled one with
the dep-wait.

Sure, but what about the libmodplug transition?  Should we wait for it
or we can upload the GNUstep core libraries to unstable right now?  (I

Please add freeze exception for gitit

Hi.

Could you please add a freeze exception for the package gitit, that just
passed the NEW and landed to unstable? It's a package I worked on for
long time (nearly all the haskell-* packages appearing on my DDPO[1] are
the dependencies I needed to package) and I missed the freeze by one
day. Given all the work I put in it, I'd really like to see it in squeeze.

Ok, so at the moment let's have a soft ACK for this transition. Could
you try and get it ready to move into testing, with the RC bugs fixed?
If it doesn't work, or gets things entangled up, then we may have to
look at a t-p-u upload with the latter suggested route.

The 'fsl' package only provides /usr/bin symlinks for all tools in the
'fsl-4.1' package -- users do not need to have them, that is merely a
convenience package that avoids configuring the environment manually.

Due to a number of rather generic names multiple file conflicts with
other packages exists -- none of them can be dealt with using the
alternatives system. It was my impression that a package conflict would
be appropriate, since the only other possibility would be to not have
such a package at all. Moreover, the scope of any of these packages makes
it rather unlikely that they get installed on the same system.

Thanks for pointing this out. It had been mentioned before as a problem
but I hadn't fully appreciated that it was sending the content out.

I think the best thing to do at this stage is probably to split out the
Zemanta plugin into a separate package (with a clear warning about what
it does) in order to avoid the risk of delving into the code and
making configuration changes deviating from upstream at this stage.

Release team, would you approve a new package on this basis?

Thanks,
Dominic.

RM: ntrack/testing [kfreebsd-*] -- NPOASR; ntrack 006 accidentically built on kfreebsd now blocks 008 from migrating to testing

[Alexander Sack]

Hi,

kfreebsd is not supposed to work because we only have a linux netlink
backend atm

please remove kfreebsd binaries from testing to allow 008 to move to testing:

xmedcon FTBFS on mips* - see #590612.  It has not huge popcon (installs
of 517 but only a little over 100 using it regularly) and a reverse
dependency.

fsl is also out-of-date on most architectures; see below.

Yes, although they may sometimes be intentionally broken in the short
term in order to get the transition finished.

non-free is currently not auto-built, so the new fsl packages are only
available on amd64.

> Shall I simply upload a bugfix for fsl to unstable?

If I'm reading #592242 correctly, the suggested fix is that fsl should
conflict with cyrus-clients-2.2?  This would appear to be a violation of
policy 10.1.

Adam

Yes, when all the required packages will be ready i'll try, probably
with a little help from your side :), to fix any remaining issues.

Then, should we suggest upstream to introduce the distro-specific
soname or should we try to modify it by ourselves?

Cheers,
Federico
