Bug#810898: apt: "apt-get update" (1.2) very slow with compressed indices and debtags

Package: debtags Version: 2.0.2 Followup-For: Bug #810898 Dear Maintainer, Perhaps just add a '&' so that the (unimportant) debtags can run asychronously and the main apt-get can finish. Perhaps in the long run, apt should have some general machinery for this? -- System Information: Debian

Bug#821059: gawk: Please don't ship development man pages in the main package.

Package: gawk Version: 1:4.1.3+dfsg-0.1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, There are a lot of reasons to have an awk interpreter. That doesn't mean I want documentation of awk functions interfering with ordinary use of man. It's bad enough that there are a few pages that collide between sections

Bug#820935: fakeroot-ng: Missing "Provides: fakeroot"

Package: fakeroot-ng Version: 0.18-4+b1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, This package includes `update-alternatives` support for /usr/bin/fakeroot, but does not include the necessary `Provides:` line, so it is impossible to install any package that `Depends: fakeroot`s using only fakeroot-ng.

Bug#820534: command-not-found: Ship apt config to update automatically

Package: command-not-found Version: 0.2.38-3 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer, Now that `apt-file update` is included as part of `apt update`, the standard config hook `APT::Update::Post-Invoke-Success` provides a simple way to invoke `update-command-not-found` at the appropriate time without

Bug#820533: appstream: Icons 64x64 is refetched in full on every change

Package: appstream Version: 0.9.3-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, Every time `aptitude update` is run, the complete tarball of icons is fetched instead of using a tiny diff-index like everything else. I assume there is some difficulty with non-text files, but this is not very nice. --

Bug#819762: clang: -shared-libasan is unusable

Package: clang Version: 1:3.6-33 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, With the latest available versions of clang-3.{5..9} ( 1:3.5.2-3 1:3.6.2-3 1:3.7.1-2 1:3.8-2 1:3.9~svn262954-1 ) it is impossible to build and run programs using the shared version of libasan. For 3.5 through 3.7, the error is

Bug#819112: /usr/bin/plasmashell: Date not updated in all clocks.

Package: plasma-workspace Version: 4:5.4.3-2 Severity: minor File: /usr/bin/plasmashell Dear Maintainer, I add two clock widgets to my taskbar: one in local time and one in UTC. However, while the *time* updates in both widgets, the date only gets updated in the one that shows local time. The

Bug#818336: linux-image-4.3.0-1-amd64: `ulimit -c` not respected when kernel.core_pattern is a pipe

Package: src:linux Version: 4.3.5-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, When the sysctl option kernel.core_pattern is a pipe (for example, the default configuration on systemd-based systems), then `ulimit -c` is not respected. If the faulting process has excessive virtual memory usage (for

Bug#817930: manpages-posix-dev: Please ship symlinks for to man pages with multiple functions

Package: manpages-posix-dev Version: 2013a-1 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer, Many pages contain information for more than one function, so they should be available under either name. As a single example, pthread_spin_destroy and pthread_spin_init share the same page, but you can only access

Bug#815038: edgar-data: Lots of missing sounds

Package: edgar-data Version: 1.21-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, When playing this game, there are a lot of errors of the form: Failed to load sound sound/boss/boulder_boss/roll Failed to load sound sound/common/rock_shatter The exact filenames vary depending on which map you're on. Many

Bug#803523: After installing plasma-pa I have 2 volume applets too

Thanks for isolating, removing that package worked. I guess this bug can be reassigned to tell plasma-pa to suicide itself in the presence of its superior. Otherwise, the packages should add a Conflicts: dependency or something. On Wed, Nov 18, 2015 at 12:10 PM, Diederik de Haas

Bug#803612: libqt5gui5: "ambiguous shortcut" regression

Package: libqt5gui5 Version: 5.5.1+dfsg-5 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, In all Qt applications, pressing nearly any shortcut does not perform the requested action. Instead, it just pops up a box saying "ambiguous shortcut detected". This is caused by the fact that, by default, the

Bug#803523: kmix: Should kill competing volume applet

Package: kmix Version: 4:15.08.1-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, Since I upgraded to KDE5, there is another volume applet in the system tray. I don't know where it is coming from, it just says "Plasma" when I try xwininfo. I don't want to use the other one, because kmix is so much better

Bug#801819: pypy: Creates strange virtualenvs

Package: pypy Version: 2.6.1+dfsg-2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, Why pypy is specified as the interpreter for a virtualenv, the layout is significantly different than the layout for cpython virtualenvs. I noticed this because with cpython, it is possible to install more than one executable

Bug#798421: Please don't depend specifically on the OpenSSL variant of Curl

For technical measures, the only place in libgit2-dev where curl matters is in the Libs.private section of the .pc file, which is only used for static linking. The choice of curl does not form part of the dynamic library's ABI, other than the fact that if a dependent program tries to link the

Bug#799325: weston: won't start despite having an active logind session

Package: weston Version: 1.8.0-3 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, According to README.Debian, having an active logind session should be sufficient to start weston without being in the weston-launch group. This does not work. $ loginctl list-sessions SESSIONUID USER

Package: qemu-user-static Version: 1:2.4+dfsg-2 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer, I recently discovered systemd-nspawn and machinectl. After working through various bugs (try to use at least systemd 226 on the host) I started playing with emulated builds, but a full boot didn't work. Note

Bug#792882: machinectl fails to login to container

I ran into this, and everything works now after upgrading all systemd packages to 226-2 and rebooting. Note that this bug is *completely* unrelated to having dbus installed in the container or having /dev/pts/0 in /etc/securetty, it happens before that is relevant. Note that systemd-container
