I've finally released an ncurses3.0 package for hamm, with an -altdev
package for those of us on mixed-library machines. I've put it into my
home directory on master, hopefully to be joined RSN by ncurses3.4 for
libc6.
As soon as both of them are up and (seemingly) running, I'll put them in

The ISO image files for the Debian 1.3 Official 2-CD Set are now
available at ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/OfficialCD . About 4 mirror
systems signed up to mirror the CDs, so it looks like we won't have a
problem distributing them.
Thanks

I get quite a lot of these messages:

How can I tell which service is the one that's asked for too often?
I tried tcplogd but all tcp requests logged are to auth and www-proxy both
of which are not in /etc/inetd.conf. I don't kno

I was involved in a complete new installation of a 1.3 machine yesterday,
showing the college's computer officer how good Linux and Debian can be.
I'm very glad to report there were _no_ problems whatsoever on the way
through the installation.

where are the others?
I also miss the libc function manpages like fgets.

Having a form that can be filled out on the web would also be a good idea.

I would not count of X3.3 being release on 1.3.1. The X packages are
_huge_ and I doubt they will be anywhere close to completely tested by
that time.
I'm stuck with the diald package, and I've got problems with users
from old versions. The thing is:
the files /etc/diald/diald.ip-{up,down} weren't conffiles, and now
they are.
Installing a new version of diald where the ip-up/down scripts are
conffiles on top of an old version where they weren

Well, OK, I can see *somebody* wants this.
But still I'm not convinced this warrants inclusion in stable.
Are there other people that would like the dependancy change

Hi all,
I've been putting together a few packages of Z-code stuff, following my
previous posting, and want to use a virtual package,
`zcode-interpreter'... I'd like to put the appropriate man-page before
you all for approval. (It describes the use of the virtual package,
among other things.)

There are some maintainers that must keep their machines on the stable
tree (and thus libc5) for various reasons.
Is there a machine somewhere these developers can log in to for the sole
purpose of building release packages?

So it could be just a web server that people want to maintain using a GUI
