Hello all

A lot of links have been updated already (thanks!) but we still have in
the website links pointing to alioth.debian.org or its aliases.

I'm attaching several lists of links that we should update at some time.

Notes:
* Most of them are in news items from the past.

* For source code repositories, some of them are migrated to salsa but
the format of the URLs is different (so you need to find in salsa the
item we're linking to, and then update the whole URL with the URL of the
new link).

*  The repos that were not migrated to salsa are now in
https://alioth-archive.debian.org/ but in .tar.xz format, so similar
situation.

* Some web pages that were in the sites with URL type
http[s]://some-project.alioth.debian.org/ are now in Salsa pages (under
pages.debian.net) but we cannot tell exactly where. Hints: look at the
source code repo of the corresponding team, or ask the corresponding team

* For very old stuff that was not migrated and is definitely gone
(because in alioth-archive there are only repositories), we can choose
between linking to archive.org (if exists archive of those pages) or
delete the link (and maybe add a note about dead link? a note will need
translations, though).

* The attached lists are from the /english folder. If something is
changed there, translations should be updated as well. The script
smartchange.pl may help on that, but note that its behavior is now
different than what we had with CVS (call it with -h to see the help
message).
* I suggest to start with the obvious updates, and leave the ones that
is not clear how to update them to the end, posting here in this bug
report the suggestions.

Interested people willing to help even more with broken links can also
have a look at:

The issue is in the documentation package, not on the website; reassign to 
harden-doc.

Bug#1071157: www.debian.org: securing debian manual: broken links

[Hendrik Jaeger]

Package: www.debian.org
Severity: minor
X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-b...@henk.geekmail.org

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

Collecting information on SysRq.
Followed by trying to find information how to report issues with the 
documentation.

   * What was the outcome of this action?

For both tasks: stumble over broken links.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

Working links.


https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/securing-debian-manual/restrict-sysrq.en.html
 has the following text:
»For more information, read security chapter in the Remote Serial Console 
HOWTO, Kernel SysRQ documentation. and the Magic_SysRq_key wikipedia entry.«
The link to the »Kernel SysRQ documentation« is broken and leads to
https://kernel.org/doc/Documentation/sysrq.txt
correct link would probably be
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/sysrq.html

https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/securing-debian-manual/changelog.en.html has 
the following text:
»You can download or view the latest version of the Securing Debian Manual from 
the Debian Documentation Project.«
The link to »Debian Documentation Project« leads to
https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/securing-debian-howto/ which shows »Page not 
found« and should maybe instead lead to
https://www.debian.org/doc/ddp.

It looks like there are possibly more broken links, among other to 
alioth.debian.org.
So generally it might be a good idea to regularly run a broken link checker 
over all docs.

Thanks!

Such symptoms are in nearly all those logfiles, so it seems unlikely, that
just some symlinks are causing this. 
Moreover, the whole urlcheck script seems broken somehow...

As they are currently, the logfiles are of no use, IMO.

That is weird, /intro/cn is a top-level path, not a sub-path of
MailingLists. Probably there is a weird symlink on the server
somewhere?

Depends on how much you can be bothered to fix, since the web changes
often there will always be newly broken URLs.

I think historical pages (security updates, News, vote pages etc)
should either remain broken or get their links pointing to
archive.org, possibly automatically at the start of a new year.

Global search/replace for http -> https for domains with verified
stable working TLS seems safe to me, and a good idea. Same goes for
things that moved from debian.net to debian.org or similar. Same goes
for things that changed their URL layout slightly. I've done that sort
of thing in the past, using smart_change.pl.

With the new translation-check headers this becomes a lot harder to
do, since if someone pushes a commit while you are reviewing your
changes, you can't just rebase and continue your review, you have to
delete the translations update commit, re-do it and restart your
review.

For historical pages (like old News pages, old elections or votes), I
think it is better to either leave the broken links as-is or use
archive.org for the broken links than to remove those historical
pages/links from the website.

I have no oppinion about that.

I still do not understand all the errors that are listed there.

I would not fix any link on debian-vote pages. For me this is like an
archive of old discussions/votes and people will know that the old
links may not work any more.

Sometimes people replace a broken link with a working link to
archive.org. I do not like that. I prefer removing broken links. And
often the content is also outdated, and removing it may be adequate.

Using urlcheck - how many broken links should we accept?

[Andrew M.A. Cater]

Folks,

Looking at the output of urlcheck:

There are lots of websites that return error codes. There are still lots
where an http -> https substitution would solve a missing website.

There are lots of apparent errors where, in fact, it's just a directory level
move - https://www-master.debian.org/build-logs/urlcheck/MailingLists

How much breakage should we accept for old sites / sites that have been
renamed or simply no longer exist?

For, for example, DPL nominations on debian-vote which list resume information
/ university "stuff" - is it worth going to fix old links?

I'm very wary of global search and replace through all of the webwml. How 
much checking should we devote to seeing whether websites exist or still
resolve?

All opinions gratefully received.

All the very best, as ever,

Andy C.

Broken Link


it's a Wiki. It's editable for every person with an account. What about 
creating an account by yourself and update the issues you have found? 
You probably know best what to adjust and it's highly appreciated if 
contributors will just fix know problems.

Probably for this section of the website, broken links probably means
that the organisation in question no longer exists. So removing broken
links should just mean removing the organisation entirely.

Hey Web Team,

I noticed that there are a bunch of broken links in the "Who's using
Debian" English commercial pages:

tubaman@potts:~/sandboxes/webwml [who_updates_20200610]$ find 
english/users/com/ -name "*.wml" | xargs grep "define-tag webpage" | sed

Do we have a policy around removing/fixing broken links?


Do we currently actively monitor the site for broken links?

Subject: broken links, German Debian handbook 'Das Debian 
Administrationshandbuch'


Dear Sir or Madam,

this message is made short (especially because the current state
regarding quality and correctness of my usage of the English language
has been unproven for many years).

Because of this I beg Your pardon, but hopefully You will be able to
get the message correctly.

Your website 'www.debian.org' has been visited from a German location.
Visiting 'https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-handbook/' to read
the manual, that is in German translation titled 'Das Debian
Administrationshandbuch', there has been some seemingly broken links
identified.

The seemingly broken links of the contents are '6.6. Von einer Stable
Distribution auf die nächste
aktualisieren'/'https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-handbook/sect.dist-upgrade.de.html',
'6.6.1. Empfohlene
Vorgehensweise'/'https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-handbook/sect.dist-upgrade.de.html#idm139675552654432',
and '6.6.2. Problembehandlung nach einer
Aktualisierung'/'https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-handbook/sect.dist-upgrade.de.html#idm139675552632176'.

A similiar problem is occurring also regarding the links refering to
'6.6.' from '6.5.' while visiting '6.5.' and the links refering to
'6.6.2.' from '6.7.' while visiting '6.7.'.

Maybe this mail is not written and send to You in vain, because You
find yourself able to understand this mail, that was written in the
best interest und empowered with the best will to actually communicate
something to You to make it understandable for You.

If not and if You are still not able to understand this text because
You might find it to cryptic, I do write a phrase for a second time,
because I am quite certain and convinced, that this it might be
definitely correct and understandable, hoping to meat Your
understanding and hoping to soothe You:

I beg Your pardon!  Sorry!  I am sorry!

To assure You of the sincerity of the whole mail, I also might write,
that I am not joking at all.

I do hope, that this might be of some kind of help to You.

Best regards
Mirko Kaltschmidt

I have looked into this. Hopefully I got it right somehow:

For aptitude it seems the txt variant has to be removed from the webwml, 
since the aptitude-doc package does only contain html variants of the guide.


For apt-doc there are probably changes required in the package apt-doc, to get
a clean solution.
The APT User's Guide has the string "apt-guide" as identifier for building
the Debian website, which means the links for the text variant point to
../apt-guide/apt-guide.de.txt for German as example.
But the package does not contain such file ../apt-guide-... file, only
../guide-... files (without the apt- ).
Are there changings in the package needed to get that running?
Or is there some mechanism, that extracts the files out of the package
and renames it according to specific rules, before it gets loaded to the
Debian webserver?

Bug#924928: translations dashboards include broken links if the file is deleted

Sorry I was a bit in a hurry when filing this bug and forgot to add the

Bug#924928: translations dashboards include broken links if the file is deleted

[Laura Arjona Reina]

Package: www.debian.org
User: www.debian@packages.debian.org
Usertag: scripts
Severity: normal

Hi all
When a file is deleted in the /english tree, the translation coordinations 
dashboards shows something like:


devel/cvs_packages  0 (0.00 ‰)  [L] [V] [F]

The [L] link points to a broken URL:
https://salsa.debian.org/webmaster-team/webwml/commits//english/devel/cvs_packages.wml

The commit deleting the file was:
https://salsa.debian.org/webmaster-team/webwml/commit/e64f14dabbc209061f6ad3b317236189aa702271

If the translator clicks in the [L] to see what changed in the original English, 
it arrives to a 404 page (Not Found).
I'm not sure if everybody can infer from the "0 (0.00 ‰)" column that the file 
is deleted and they should delete in their language subtree too.


Kind regards

Wheezy is unsupported, so that page should no longer work. I guess
that is a bug in the packages website update system.

That page correctly doesn't work, since wheezy is unsupported.

We suggest that you upgrade to Debian stretch, since that is security
supported, but if that isn't feasible, you can put the archive site in
your apt sources lists and use that. If you are looking for a package
that isn't available on the archive site, it will probably be
available on the snapshot site.

but if I click on any of the package links (say tntnet which links to 
https://package.debian.org/wheezy/tntnet)


The resulting page says:

Error

    two or more packages specified (tntnet wheezy)


There are many other links displayed in Google as a response to the 
search for debian wheezy packages armel that seem to be broken when 
following them - eg. 
https://packages.debian.org/wheezy/armel/coreutils/download


I'm trying to find a source for Debian packages for a legacy ARM Wheezy

Yes, I had also thought about that.
Another benefit would be, that we don't need to rephrase
the sentence, when new translations are added or outdated
onces removed.
But I still would like to make that a link, for usability.

In case one take a look into other documentation (togather with its
translation), one will not find any such notes and links to
translations. Maybe there's no need in such note in "Debian Developer's
Reference"? Or at least no need in explicit links? What about to remove
it completely or change text to something like "This documentation is
also available in some other languages"?

... since there are links on the website which work, and others do not:

On https://www.debian.org/doc/devel-manuals#devref (on the wegpage itself)
all links are correct and working.
However, when going into the document itself under for example
https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/index.en.html
we can find links to
https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/index.fr.en.html
https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/index.de.en.html
and so on. So re-writing the links inside the document does not work correctly,
while the ones on the wegpages itself are fine.

That might be correct so far.
However, if you install those packages on your local machine (let's say the
english and the french package), the links inside that documents do not
work:
when you open the english document locally, the link to the german version
is file:///usr/share/doc/developers-reference/index.de.html
however that file does not exist, it is stored as
usr/share/doc/developers-reference-de/index.html

Proposal: maybe the easiest way to make all variants (view via debian.org
and opened locally) work correctly, would be to change it this way:

"This page is also available in
https://www.debian.org/doc/devel-manuals#devref";>French, German, 
Italian, Russian, and Japanese."

since the links on that page are fine and can be linked from everywhere
with one single static link.
Of course, there are still some corner cases which do not work (for example, 
when you have the packages installed locally, you cannot switch from the 
local english to the local german version via that links, and when you
have no internet connection, you also get an irritating situation), but most 
usecases should be fine, and it would be an improvement compared to the 
current situation, where all links do not work!

Would fix #690750 and #912724.

Broken links in developers-reference as published on the Debian's website

[Lev Lamberov]

Hi Holger,

thanks for your attention to the bug report, but my report was about a
different issue. Let me explain.

First, let's take a look at developers-reference as it pubished on the
Debian's website. Say, in English [web-en]. It incorrectly links to
translations as index.{fr,de,it,ru,jp}.en.html, such files do not exist.
Any other translation, say, French [web-fr] links to translations as
index.{de,it,ru,jp}.fr.html, such files do not exist.

[web-en] https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/index.en.html

[web-fr] https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/index.fr.html

Second, let's take a look at developers-reference package. All links
there are correct, that is in _any_ language links point to
index.{fr,de,it,ru,jp}.html.

Third, let's take a look at developers-reference source code. In English
we currently have as follows:


If you want to print this reference, you should use the pdf version.  This page is also
available in French, German, Italian, Russian, and Japanese.



Again, links are correct and point to index.{fr,de,it,ru,jp}.html. And
the same holds for any translation.

Broken links are only in developers-reference published on the Debian's
website. Since links in the source code and in the developers-reference
package are correct, then it is the content negotiation problem. Looks
like the webserver incorrectly rewrites links.

Let me stress that my report is _not_ about links to English, or links
in English. It is about _broken_ links in _any_ developers-reference as
published on the Debian's website. So, my bug report is about
www.debian.org, not developers-reference. Please, reconsider it and
reassign #912724 to www.debian.org.

Regards,
Lev

Dear Maintainer,

on the page "Downloading Debian CD images with BitTorrent"
https://www.debian.org/CD/torrent-cd/
in section 'Official torrents for the "stable" release'

for CD link to "source"
https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/source/bt-cd/ returns 404.

for DVD link to "multi-arch"
https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/multi-arch/bt-dvd/ returns 404.

Are multi-arch DVD not going to be generated or just something went wrong?


Best regards,
Andrey Skvortsov

Hello!

I noticed the section https://www.debian.org/doc/devel-manuals#policy

The links yield error 404.

Please fix the links by removing the trailing .gz. The files are there

Bug#900990: [www.debian.org] update broken links to alioth.debian.org (and aliases)

[Laura Arjona Reina]

Package: www.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: debian-www@lists.debian.org
Usertags: content
Tags: newcomer

Hello all

A lot of links have been updated already (thanks!) but we still have in
the website links pointing to alioth.debian.org or its aliases.

I'm attaching several lists of links that we should update at some time.

Notes:
* Most of them are in news items from the past.

* For source code repositories, some of them are migrated to salsa but
the format of the URLs is different (so you need to find in salsa the
item we're linking to, and then update the whole URL with the URL of the
new link).

*  The repos that were not migrated to salsa are now in
https://alioth-archive.debian.org/ but in .tar.xz format, so similar
situation.

* Some web pages that were in the sites with URL type
http[s]://some-project.alioth.debian.org/ are now in Salsa pages (under
pages.debian.net) but we cannot tell exactly where. Hints: look at the
source code repo of the corresponding team, or ask the corresponding team

* For very old stuff that was not migrated and is definitely gone
(because in alioth-archive there are only repositories), we can choose
between linking to archive.org (if exists archive of those pages) or
delete the link (and maybe add a note about dead link? a note will need
translations, though).

* The attached lists are from the /english folder. If something is
changed there, translations should be updated as well. The script
smartchange.pl may help on that, but note that its behavior is now
different than what we had with CVS (call it with -h to see the help
message).
* I suggest to start with the obvious updates, and leave the ones that
is not clear how to update them to the end, posting here in this bug
report the suggestions.

Interested people willing to help even more with broken links can also
have a look at:

Bug#865195: Bug 865195: [www.debian.org] Some broken links on the page "Downloading Debian CD images with BitTorrent"

[Laura Arjona Reina]

Hi Andrey

Thanks for reporting this bug.

About source CD, we're not providing source CD anymore, only source DVD,
so the link shouldn't be there.

For what I can see, the list of links is generated by this file:

https://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/webwml/webwml/english/template/debian/release_images.wml

in particular, lines 44-45:




we should remove "source" from that list.
I'm attaching a patch that I think it solves this issue.
I've tested it locally and the resulting list of links looks ok for me,
but I'll ping the CD team and wait some days for others to review.

About multi-arch, we're not providing multi-arch DVD, and the link has
been removed already.

Cheers

Thank you for your report about the broken link. I've removed the hyperlink to

Broken links to metadata

[Maikel]

Dear Debian masters,

I just had a look at https://packages.debian.org/wheezy/thunderbird and 
found several broken links:


http://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs/main/i/icedove/icedove_52.2.1-1~deb7u1_changelog
http://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs/main/i/icedove/icedove_52.2.1-1~deb7u1_copyright
http://sources.debian.net/patches/summary/icedove/1:52.2.1-1~deb7u1/

They all report HTTP 404.

Thank you for your attention and my favorite operating system. You rock!

Friendly ping :-)


This bug is still true, even for the new version of debian-handbook in
stable (stretch):

'https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-handbook/sect.dist-upgrade.de.html'
and
'https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-handbook/sect.dist-upgrade.de.html#idm139675552654432'
and
'https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-handbook/sect.dist-upgrade.de.html#idm139675552632176'
are still dead links, while they work, when you replace "de" by "it" for
example.

Could you take a look? Thanks


Holger

Bug#865195: www.debian.org: Some broken links on the page "Downloading Debian CD images with BitTorrent"

[Andrey Skvortsov]

Package: www.debian.org
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

on the page "Downloading Debian CD images with BitTorrent"
https://www.debian.org/CD/torrent-cd/
in section 'Official torrents for the "stable" release'

for CD link to "source"
https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/source/bt-cd/ returns 404.

for DVD link to "multi-arch"
https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/multi-arch/bt-dvd/ returns 404.

Are multi-arch DVD not going to be generated or just something went wrong?


Best regards,
Andrey Skvortsov

There are several possibilities.  Give me a week or so to check
situation.  It's late now and I do not have shell access to the web site
except for going through VCS and cron jobs.  So Debugging involves lots

Thanks, but Mirko was correct in contacting debian-www in the first
place. The Debian package contains the German translation:

$ apt-file show debian-handbook|grep dist-upgrade.html
[...]
debian-handbook: 
/usr/share/doc/debian-handbook/html/de-DE/sect.dist-upgrade.html

There's some cron job setup by Osamu that extracts the files and renames them to
follow the foo..html scheme. It looks like that script is failing (or has
failed last time only, I don't know) to create sect.dist-upgrade.de.html for 
some
reason.

broken links, German Debian handbook 'Das Debian Administrationshandbuch'

[Mirko Kaltschmidt]

Dear Sir or Madam,

this message is made short (especially because the current state
regarding quality and correctness of my usage of the English language
has been unproven for many years).

Because of this I beg Your pardon, but hopefully You will be able to
get the message correctly.

Your website 'www.debian.org' has been visited from a German location.
Visiting 'https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-handbook/' to read
the manual, that is in German translation titled 'Das Debian
Administrationshandbuch', there has been some seemingly broken links
identified.

The seemingly broken links of the contents are '6.6. Von einer Stable
Distribution auf die nächste
aktualisieren'/'https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-handbook/sect.dist-upgrade.de.html',
'6.6.1. Empfohlene
Vorgehensweise'/'https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-handbook/sect.dist-upgrade.de.html#idm139675552654432',
and '6.6.2. Problembehandlung nach einer
Aktualisierung'/'https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-handbook/sect.dist-upgrade.de.html#idm139675552632176'.

A similiar problem is occurring also regarding the links refering to
'6.6.' from '6.5.' while visiting '6.5.' and the links refering to
'6.6.2.' from '6.7.' while visiting '6.7.'.

Maybe this mail is not written and send to You in vain, because You
find yourself able to understand this mail, that was written in the
best interest und empowered with the best will to actually communicate
something to You to make it understandable for You.

If not and if You are still not able to understand this text because
You might find it to cryptic, I do write a phrase for a second time,
because I am quite certain and convinced, that this it might be
definitely correct and understandable, hoping to meat Your
understanding and hoping to soothe You:

I beg Your pardon!  Sorry!  I am sorry!

To assure You of the sincerity of the whole mail, I also might write,
that I am not joking at all.

I do hope, that this might be of some kind of help to You.

Best regards
Mirko Kaltschmidt

Hi Osamu,


Most links work again, now. Good work! Many thanks!!


With the exception of the english text variants, they are still 404:

https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-guide/apt-guide.en.txt
https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-offline/apt-offline.en.txt


So re-opening the bug.

I have looked into this. Hopefully I got it right somehow:

For aptitude it seems the txt variant has to be removed from the webwml, 
since the aptitude-doc package does only contain html variants of the guide.


For apt-doc there are probably changes required in the package apt-doc, to get
a clean solution.
The APT User's Guide has the string "apt-guide" as identifier for building
the Debian website, which means the links for the text variant point to
../apt-guide/apt-guide.de.txt for German as example.
But the package does not contain such file ../apt-guide-... file, only
../guide-... files (without the apt- ).
Are there changings in the package needed to get that running?
Or is there some mechanism, that extracts the files out of the package
and renames it according to specific rules, before it gets loaded to the
Debian webserver?

Hi,

I finally got to fix this.  Moving page tends to break things. So I made
symlinks to make both filenames acceptable.

I now see the whole picture :-)

I am a bit reluctant to change the file name if we can fix situation via
https://www.debian.org/doc/user-manuals

Bug me if I do not fix this in a month or so.  Good night.

Now the txt variants are there again at 
https://www.debian.org/doc/user-manuals.
(I have removed them for the time being, and yesterday re-activated them.)

At the moment the txt variants are all dead links.

Excuse me.  I am a bit confused and I need you to re-explain things to
me.  Which page are you looking at!

apt-guide is not listed in https://www.debian.org/doc/

I see it in English page as https://www.debian.org/doc/user-manuals

It only lists HTML pages.  (Maybe you can blame me for this.)

The German page does not even list apt-doc files.

Can you tell me where you find such links?  When I made these, I
followed what used to be. (Or I thought I did so.)

Yah... not just German but all other languages.  I did not want to
change their file name.

Since the html variants are working fine, I will remove the txt variants 
from the website for now.
Turning this into a bugreport, so that it doesn't get lost.

broken links in the apt manual's area

[Jacob Fritz]

Hi folks,

So I was going through the user manuals section of your website (
https://www.debian.org/doc/user-manuals) and found that none of the apt
manuals display plain text options, in spite of the fact that they have
hyperlinks to them. I mean, I suppose I can copy and paste the HTML pages,
but still...  Anyway, not sure if this was deliberate or not, so I just
thought I'd mention it.

Thanks,
Jake

Offer to help with broken links

[Larry Fletcher]

Website Maintainers,

I have been a Debian user for 16 years and have used an automated link 
checker on a handful of websites for 12 years.  What I would like to do 
is help with repairing and removing broken links.


The following report is easy to use (with email clients and newsreaders 
that support the HTML format) and it only contains broken links, so 
there are no lists to search through and the same false positives are 
not seen every time the link checker runs.


The pages will be checked once a month and reports are only sent if 
there are broken links, which means you can completely forget about 
broken links until a new one is found.


False positives will be removed from the reports before they are sent 
and the link checker will be configured to suppress them in the future.  
If a false positive is missed, I will probably see it when the current 
and previous reports are compared, or you can send me the link.  New 
broken links will be held for a month before they are reported, which 
helps to avoid dealing with a link that is temporarily down.


So if anyone is interested, all I need are the URLs of the pages you 
want to check.


Thanks for all of the great work over the years!

   Larry

broken links on debian.org

[Sven Kieske]

Hi,

just as a quick hint:

on this site: https://www.debian.org/security/audit/advisories.en.html

are some broken links to bug reports
e.g. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug
instead of https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=629003

so each of these links:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug

misses the =$BUGNUMBER part

Thanks for fixing.

Their response is that machine it is on is dying and the people
running this service did not respond when contacted for help moving it
to another machine so it will probably remain offline until someone
steps up to maintain it.

I'll try to help push this forward so it can be resolved.

The first one works for me. The second one is fixed in CVS to use

The server hosting this service appears to be down. I have asked the
Debian sysadmins what the status is and I will report back if they say
something.

Package: www.debian.org
Severity: minor

As reported by Jari Aalto in 
http://lists.debian.org/debian-www/2008/03/msg00022.html
the Copyright File link from http://packages.debian.org/unstable/nttcp
to 
http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/non-free/n/nttcp/nttcp_1.47-10/nttcp.copyright
is broken (404). There's the same problem with quik and presumably all 
packages which aren't available on i386.

Hi
I think this problem is fixed.

I've looked at the Copyright links in these packages (non-i386):

http://packages.debian.org/unstable/quik
http://packages.debian.org/wheezy/linux-image-2.6-powerpc
http://packages.debian.org/wheezy/linux-headers-2.6-powerpc64
http://packages.debian.org/sid/powerpc-utils

And all of them work, showing the corresponding copyright info.

This appears to be an issue with moinmoin upstream:

http://moinmo.in/AideDeLaSyntaxeWikiDeMoinMoin

Please contribute a translation for this page to upstream and once
that reaches Debian we can backport the package to wheezy to fix this
issue.

When editing a page, information to help editing is shown at the
bottom. At the very bottom a paragraph links to more information.
The English version reads:

(!) For more help, see HelpOnEditing or
  HelpOnMoinWikiSyntax.

In French, one sees:

Although the second link shows, it is broken.

on http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/
there is a link under "Documentation" pointing to a version of the manual build
from svn,
which also contains a kfreebsd variant.
But, as already mentioned, the info there is not confirmed being fully valid for
kfreebsd.

Re: Broken links on website to Installation Guide kFreeBSD

[Paul Wise]

I asked on IRC for you and got this response:

 can someone answer this?
http://lists.debian.org/debian-www/2013/01/msg00099.html
 the guide is disabled because of being a linux guide and
noone has done any work on doing the relevant stuff on kfreebsd (yet)
 at least that's what I remember from #-release

Broken links on website to Installation Guide kFreeBSD

[Ralph Zuidinga]

Hi,

Today I decided that I wanted to give Debian kFreeBSD Testing (Wheezy)
a try. I downloaded a DVD image, but I'm unable to view the online
version of the Installation Guide.

I found the following four broken links:
http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/kfreebsd-amd64/
http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/kfreebsd-i386/
http://www.debian.org/releases/testing/kfreebsd-amd64/
http://www.debian.org/releases/testing/kfreebsd-i386/

Where can I find the latest version of the Debian kFreeBSD Installation Guide?

Thanks in advance,

Ralph Zuidinga

Yes, it has been discontinued, see
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=691377

I'm assuming packages.debian.org will be updated automatically at some 
point to not show the sid package anymore.

Kind regards,

Yes, indeed, you are right, there is something pending.
But when it came to such requests from people, who wanted to get on the
list, there were often comments like:
We need a new automated method to process such requests, which checks if
all required data is provided etc.
Therefore it seems to me, that at the moment no new entries are included
in the list.

Comments?
