[Bug 286337] Re: Please backport OpenSSH 5.1 to Hardy
> A server edition like LTS purports to be requires something better than SSH 4.8. Nope, on a server you typically value stability more than getting the latest bleeding edge version. 4.8 is actually a quite recent version if you compare to what is included in other currently supported "enterprise" Linux distributions: * Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 (RHEL5): OpenSSH 4.3 (this of-course also includes derivates like CentOS 5) * SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 (SLES10): OpenSSH 4.2 Also remember that all distributions, including Ubuntu, backports security fixes for SSH. -- Please backport OpenSSH 5.1 to Hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/286337 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backports Testing Team, which is subscribed to Hardy Backports. -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports

[Bug 263316] Re: Please update aMSN backport to version 0.97.2
No, tcl-tls should not be backported. That package have been renamed in intrepid, it is named tcltls (without the "-") in hardy. If amsn should be backported the Build-Depends simply needs to be changed from tcl-tls to tcltls. -- Please update aMSN backport to version 0.97.2 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/263316 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backports Testing Team, which is subscribed to Gutsy Backports. -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports
[Bug 258821] Re: xmonad
Just filling in a little more details about this: xmonad 0.6 in hardy, and 0.7 in hardy-backports does not support Xinerama. This is caused by libghc6-x11-dev 1.4.1-1 in hardy (source package "haskell-x11"). The package is simply built without xinerama-support. In the current deibian/intrepid-version 1.4.2-1 this have been fixed by adding a build-dep on libxinerama-dev, but note that this is also a new upstream version. The backport is also a bit tricky. All xmonad-packages for some weird reason have hard coded exakt version dependencies on 1.4.1-1. So after backporting haskell-x11 you cant just rebuild xmonad and xmonad-contrib, you have to edit their control-files and update the version everywhere first. (This would of course also be required if haskell-x11 should be SRU-ed instead of backported) With modified dependencies the resulting packages work fine. I have been running my own backport of haskell-x11 1.4.2 xmonad+xmonad-contrib 0.7 a while now without any problems. No changes was made except the dependencies as mentioned, but I could post the trivial debdiffs if necessary. -- xmonad https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/258821 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backports Testing Team, which is subscribed to Hardy Backports. -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports

I don't think this should qualify as a backport as the only reason is to fix a bug. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports#How to request new packages Also the bug is quite serious (failed backups could easily cause dataloss) so this should be a SRU.

-backports is for applications, not big system components like the kernel.

[Bug 226587] Re: Please backport xmonad 0.7 from intrepid to hardy
Builds and works fine here as well using prevu. However if xmonad is backported we really need to also backport xmonad- contrib. This requires updating debian/control in the xmonad-contrib source package and changing all the hard coded Build-Depends from 0.7-1 versions to 0.7-1~8.04prevu1. After this xmonad-contrib also builds fine using prevu, and the extensions from there that I use works fine. -- Please backport xmonad 0.7 from intrepid to hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/226587 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backports Testing Team, which is subscribed to Hardy Backports. -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports
