https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/ examples suffer escape damage
File appears untagged, as does everything up to /doc. So posting here. https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/, Example 3. Simple and Example 4. Complex say -- >8 -- You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with this package; if not, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>;. -- >8 -- and I almost just copied this into d/copyright verbatim. Oddly, all other <> pairs, even in those same hunks, are correctly (un)escaped? So unclear to me how this happened. Best, наб signature.asc Description: PGP signature
debian.org/CD/vendors/ "Dominique E. Blake-Hofer" entry is now squatted adware; other vendors 404; some ship buster or stretch
Hi! On https://www.debian.org/CD/vendors/, the swiss vendor "Dominique E. Blake-Hofer" links to https://blake-hofer.net/?post_type=product however https://www.blake-hofer.net/ appears to be a blank ad site "Made in RapidWeaver" with lorem ipsum articles. By bisecting http://web.archive.org/web/202300*/blake-hofer.net, I found that this has been the state of affairs at /least/ since October 28, 2018 when the title changes from "IT Dientsleistungen, Wordpress Projekte, Webhosting" to "Meditation & Yoga Studio" (and redirects). In an unrelated vein, a significant proportion of the vendors I clicked through on the site offer CDs up to buster at most: Linux2u buster PM Consultores Ltda i think stretch, but on loading it again to re-check the website broke Toko Baliwae - Tokonya Maniak Linux buster Dr. Hinner EDV buster for french and english customers, but bookworm for germans Debianland.debuster Stormfront Ventures buster lavorato IT stretch! (I didn't include the ones that offer up to bullseye or ones that don't say what version is offered in this list). Additionally: De Linuxspecialist 403s. Onyx Dragon 404s. vianos webdesign errored and gave me Firefox Developer Edition does not trust this site because it uses a certificate that is not valid for www.vianos.de. The certificate is only valid for the following names: *.kasserver.com, kasserver.com Linux-Onlineshop redirects to https://www.tuxedocomputers.com/ and searching "debian" there gave me nothing. Can't decide if this is just adware. Hudson Oliveira redirected me to https://corsario.webs.com/, half the site didn't load, and there's a "Create a Free Website" thing injected in the bottom left corner for webs.com; I'd maybe ask Hudson if that site is still accurate. There may be some point to pruning some or all of these. Best, наб signature.asc Description: PGP signature
"List of files" links broken for arch:all packages on packages.d.o
Hi! Not sure if this is the perfect place for this, but I assume I'll get pointed in the right direxion if it isn't. As an example, go to https://packages.debian.org/sid/python-libevdev-doc whose [list of files] link goes to https://packages.debian.org/sid/all/python-libevdev-doc/filelist which returns an Error No such package in this suite on this architecture. but going to https://packages.debian.org/sid/any/python-libevdev-doc/filelist instead does give the list, nominally for alpha. I've tried following the code but my inability to parse Perl made any sensible solution unachievable for me, hence the lack of patch. Best, наб signature.asc Description: PGP signature

It's been a few days, enough, I'd think, for the change to have propagated; however both grub-pc and a fresh package, such as https://packages.debian.org/sid/gnuradio which is at version 3.8.2.0-4 (Thu, 15 Oct 2020 00:20:23 -0400), uploaded on Mon, 19 Oct 2020 03:04:05 +: https://tracker.debian.org/news/1184204 has the Tags: link pointing at https://debtags.alioth.debian.org/edit.html?pkg=gnuradio Best, наб Please keep me in CC, as I'm not subscribed signature.asc Description: PGP signature
Tags: on package page link points at nonexistent server
Hi! Consider this page: https://packages.debian.org/sid/grub-pc Which has this line > Tags: System Administration: System Boot, Implemented in: C, > User Interface: interface::framebuffer, interface::shell, > Text-based Interactive, Role: Need an extra tag, Program All the links in the list (System Boot, C) point at packages.debian.org and work, but the link on Tags points at https://debtags.alioth.debian.org/edit.html?pkg=grub-pc which doesn't even resolve.
