I've started to try to use a wiki to control the Unofficial list of Sarge Release Issues. You can view it at: http://wiki.debian.net/index.cgi?UnofficialSargeReleaseIssues
I welcome contributions to the wiki page as I'm starting to fall even further behind in updating it. Ideally there would be reports from various groups on a regular basis, but this is the best that can be easily done right now. To summarize: - KDE 3 looks in pretty good shape. It's waiting on some port retries. arts is having some trouble on the ia64 [1] and is waiting for glibc and gcc-3.3. A few non-core packages seem to still have some bugs. See the debian-kde list for more information. - GNOME 2 still has some RC bugs in packages included in it's meta-core. The majority of the problems seem to be related to things that can be fixed by porters retrying the builds, but I don't think anyone's told some of them (I.e. was the s390 team told that rebuilds would help?) - gcc-3.3 has some kind of standards compliance problem on the s390? See the RC bug for details - glibc was having some trouble on the sparc architecture, but it looks like it's fixed. I don't know if it will be able to go into testing (Will the newer glibc package break packages in testing?) - The debian-installer (d-i) is in what I would call almost a releasable state, but that's just my opinion. See debian-boot for information. I'm also unsure if http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?tag=d-i actually does what I think it does as there are no reports found. - IPv6: It may also be worth noting that netbase may have out of the box support for IPv6 with it's next upload [2].
