 Hi Ben Pfaff, Jesse Gross, the release team, and others,
 
 Mehdi found out the upstream bug fix for this, and I incorporated it as
 a patch for the Wheezy version. The patch applied cleanly, and we have
 tested it, it really fixes the bug as we expected. We now use the
 attached patch in production.
 
 I have attached the debdiff to this message.
 
 Ben, do you agree that this should be applied to the current Wheezy
 version? Could you upload it to Sid, or if you cant (lack of time, or
 any other reason), would you agree that I NMU it (to Sid first, then
 when it's migrated to testing, to wheezy-proposed-updates if the release
 team agrees)?

I'm happy with this approach, if Jesse agrees that the patch is
correct.  I'd appreciate an NMU, in this case.

I am currently working on a 1.9.x upload for sid.  It's not ready
(some lintian complaints that I agree with and want to fix).  Would
you prefer to get this fix through the above process before I upload,
then?

I hadn't noticed that Open vSwitch had FTBFS (it seems that I'd failed
to subscribe to it in the PTS).

I'm looking at it now.

It's a bug in the testsuite.  I posted a fix to the OVS development
mailing list for review:
http://openvswitch.org/pipermail/dev/2012-April/016844.html

I expect to upload a fixed package today or tomorrow.

Please allow autoconf 2.61-8 into testing

2008-08-11 Thread Ben Pfaff
Autoconf 2.61-8, which I just uploaded, fixes grave bug #494112,
autoconf: should close its output before calling
File::Copy::move() on it.  Relative to 2.61-7 currently in
testing, it is a one-line change that simply adds a call to a
close function in one place, a change that has already
committed upstream.  Thus, when 2.61-8 is installed into
unstable, I request that it be propagated to testing as well.

Thanks,

Ben.

please allow w3-el-e21 4.0pre.2001.10.27.nodocs-4 into testing

2007-02-09 Thread Ben Pfaff
Currently w3-el-e21 4.0pre.2001.10.27.nodocs-2 is in testing.
I'd appreciate it if -4 could be allowed in.  The only changes
from -2 are:

* Point to where the upstream sources have now moved, in
  debian/copyright.

* Remove a conflict from debian/control that was causing
  difficulty for upgrades.

Thanks!

please allow autoconf 2.61-4 to transition into testing

2007-01-20 Thread Ben Pfaff
Version 2.61-4 of the Autoconf package fixes important bug
#407385.  The only change from 2.61-3 is a dependency on m4 was
made into a dependency on m4 (= 1.4.8), with no extraneous
changes.  I'd therefore appreciate it if it could be allowed to
propagate into testing.

Thanks,

Ben.

please update autoconf package in testing to 2.61-3

2006-12-20 Thread Ben Pfaff
Autoconf 2.61-3 in unstable fixes bug #403243 that caused a FTBFS
in net-snmp.  It is a one-line change from 2.61-2, confirmed to
be correct by the upstream maintainers, with no extraneous
changes.  Thus, I'd appreciate it if 2.61-3 could be promoted to
testing.

In the meantime, the FTBFS was worked around in net-snmp, making
this no longer release-critical in Autoconf.  As I understand it,
only release-critical bug fixes are being accepted to testing, so
I will understand if my request is refused.  I am asking for this
exception by request from Peter Palfrader [EMAIL PROTECTED].
This Autoconf bug also affects one of his packages (although he
admits that that package will not be released).

autoconf in testing

2006-12-11 Thread Ben Pfaff
I'd appreciate it if Autoconf 2.61-2 could be promoted from
unstable to testing.  It fixes one bug in 2.61-1 that was also
committed upstream, without any extraneous changes.

Thanks!

updated kftgt 1.6-3 for sarge

2005-05-10 Thread Ben Pfaff
I uploaded kftgt 1.6-3 to fix Bug#308400 missing dependency for
update-inetd.  The only change from 1.6-2 is an added dependency
on netbase.  I believe that this should go into sarge.

Thanks,

Ben.
