[Bug 147987] Re: remove tor from gutsy
Aron Sisak kindly volunteered to look after tor in gutsy and hardy, so we should not remove it any more. ** Changed in: tor (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress = Invalid Target: ubuntu-7.10-rc = None -- remove tor from gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/147987 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 147987] Re: remove tor from gutsy
As a Tor user - if it gets removed from the Ubuntu repo, I'm no longer going to use it. I'm not going to add an external repo, and I will shut down my tor exit nodes. It is a shame upstream wants it removed. -- remove tor from gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/147987 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 147987] Re: remove tor from gutsy
Unless someone steps up soon to become the Ubuntu maintainer of Tor, I will remove the package by the release candidate. ** Changed in: tor (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Martin Pitt (pitti) Status: New = In Progress Target: None = ubuntu-7.10-rc -- remove tor from gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/147987 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 147987] Re: remove tor from gutsy
Well, I don't understand the problem. I have been following the thread for the past few days. I notice that the Tor package on Debian is up to date. Is there much difference between the package of Debian Ubuntu ? Anyways, I have done some packages before. So I don't think it will be a problem that I would sync. with Debian every while -- remove tor from gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/147987 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 147987] Re: remove tor from gutsy
Btw, I notice that the upstream himself maintains a repository that holds Ubuntu package for the latest version of Tor. That's why I don't understand what's the problem. Isn't it just going to be syncing with his repository ? And probably do some changes if needed ? -- remove tor from gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/147987 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 147987] Re: remove tor from gutsy
In the thread it says: We just cannot put new versions into stable releases without testing them at all. Please define testing. Also, there was the other option of going into backports, what's the problem of that option ? -- remove tor from gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/147987 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi, Ahmed El-Mahmoudy [2007-10-02 8:30 -]: In the thread it says: We just cannot put new versions into stable releases without testing them at all. Please define testing. Review the new versions for new features or behavioural changes, check that package upgrades work and do not break existing configurations, test that the package still functions properly, etc. The development release does not have any problem, like you say, we can just sync from Debian. But that's not what people are use, they want a stable version of Ubuntu. If nobody in Ubuntu looks after this package and keeps it up to date, then we should better remove it for the reasons stated on the ML. Also, there was the other option of going into backports, what's the problem of that option ? They are not enabled by default, thus most users of Tor would not get them. The updates need to undergo the proper SRU [1] procedure.

I can give it a try. I've been using Tor for a while (currently I am using the 0.2 branch). But I don't know about all its features, hence I do not know if I qualify for the task or not. -- GPG KeyID: 0x9DCA0B27 (@ pgp.mit.edu) GPG Fingerprint: 087D 3767 8CAC 65B1 8F6C 156E D325 C3C8 9DCA 0B27 -- remove tor from gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/147987 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
