Hi. i've now updated my installation to a point where i have to wait for new packages...
what i've noted... some of them might be known issues, but i'd like to point out how a newbie sees Debian GNU/Hurd at this point. * Packages. It confuses me to have ~1000 Packages which makes no sense for the hurd (yet), like login or makedev, which were provided by the hurd-package, but are flagged as 'required' in dselect. * ftp from the outside on the hurd-server doesn't work 530 Login incorrect. Login failed. the logfile says: Dec 3 11:16:58 worf ftpd[57]: fcntl F_SETOWN: Operation not supported * i still encounter random freezes of the system (ping still answers, but telnet and console are dead.) when i use apt. * in ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/hurd/debian is something that looks like forgotten package-fragments (just a cosmetical problem) * i tried to recompile 'jove' (the editor) and most of it seems to work... but it can't open files. i can save text to a file, but i can't open them. ('Read error: Bad file descriptor') Hints on this? Don't want to bug anybody, if this all is known and discussed here, please ignore me.
