i loudly complain about the fact that you reupload at least alsa-lib-1.0.2 tarball with some changes w/o any notification (neither on alsa web site, nor in some ftp server notification file nor in this ml). this is just plain innacceptable. we only found it because some user complained that cooker alsa-lib-1.0.2 package was broken whereas downloaded tarball from ftp.alsa-project.org wasn't. people should at least be warned about the reupload. >==============================================================================> > The tarball included in the 1.0.2 SRPM (Just redownloaded from > > ftp.uninett.no to double check): > > -rw-rw-rw- 1 michael michael 563797 Jan 26 15:04 alsa-lib-1.0.2.tar.bz2 > > > > The tarball I downloaded from ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/lib that works > > for me: > > -rw-rw-rw- 1 michael michael 564241 Jan 27 22:11 > > /home/michael/RPM/SOURCES/alsa-lib-1.0.2.tar.bz2 > >==============================================================================> reuploading a file should never be done. if some bug needs a urgent fix or if wrong tarball was uploaded, the right thing to do with respect to packagers is to reupload alsa-lib-1.0.2a.tar.bz2 not plain alsa-lib-1.0.2.tar.bz2. i would like to see alsa team promise they'll never reupload a file again, at least not without notifying people. it seems the kernel drivers also have been reuploaded. now, which other file also have been reuploaded ? ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.
