I'm still committed to fix it (and also asked for help upstream), but have no precise idea of the time it will take. In particular, any help is appreciated. This appears to be still unfixed in current 0.4 and should be reported/ fixed upstream. Given that libcloud is already outdated, has no reverse deps and virtually no users in popcon, we should remove it from Squeeze. Please (not just you, possibly anyone who can test it), just check [1], then decide freely - I'm not necessarily against removing it, but it's apparently not that hard to keep it. Pietro, thanks for your contribution to Debian! Howeber, the deeper problem is that the maintainer himself didn't followup on this bug during the last 70 days. As such, I prefer to remove libcloud from Squeeze. A package like this needs an active maintainer, it's too volatile to rot in the archive. If you have a deeper interest in libcloud, you could pick up the maintenance of libcloud in the future.

Re: Bug#598463: Alive
Hi. I'm the maintainer. I'll readily admit I've failed miserably to track this issue appropriately. Part of it is due to some rather unfortunate e-mail filtering, but that's certainly not all. (Debian bug mail ended in a folder I didn't subscribe to, but I noticed the issue when it was first raised on the libcloud list) I've had no time to drive this issue personally, but idly following the upstream libcloud mailing list (where Pietro has done a great job trying to get things moving), there doesn't seem to be any resolution. The final e-mail in the thread (AFAIK) being this: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-libcloud/201011.mbox/%3caanlkti=x9nfbv7igzcakwuqoumoe-j1tk6duw3y6a...@mail.gmail.com%3e I was sort of hoping it would be resolved soon so that we could get the fix in. I didn't see much point in getting 0.4 into squeeze since this issue would remain. (Was that wrong?) I agree the issue is important. I'm not sure I personally think it warrants removal, but if that's how things are done, that's of course fine. On a more general note, I'm going to thoroughly reconsider my maintaining this package. I don't really use it anymore, and if I did, it wouldn't be on Debian, so if anyone else wants to take it over, that'd be great. If not, it'll be on a best-effort basis, were best probably isn't going to be very awesome :( -- Soren Hansen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-release-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: Bug#598463: Alive
Um, well I could see if they would accept a patch I could make up soon... The problem is / was they closed the bug saying it was a python issue, where they didnt' even attempt to ensure that a https connection would be secured, through wrapping it in ssl, iirc. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-release-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
