Hi, With some rude scripting, and afterwards careful hand-checking, I've compiled a list with RC bugs that are closed because they are fixed in sid, but the packge containing the fix didn't make sarge yet, hence the bug is likely still present in Sarge. This implies that the bug wasn't bogus (all of the below bugs were fixed by an upload), I also checked that the bug was reported on a version of the package that *is* in Sarge, so it wasn't introduced later in sid.
I'd suggest to reopen all these bugs and tag them sarge. A note on the format of this list: - the two dates are respectively the last-modification date of the bug, and the date that the current sarge version was replaced by a newer sid version (which thus as of present didn't make sarge yet) - The two versions on the second line are respectively the version of the package currently in sarge, and the version on which this bug was reported (based on the "Version:" pseudo-header in the mail to submit@) - The third line I used to note whether or not I personally verified that this bug indeed is yet unfixed in sarge (based on the fact that the version claiming to address the issue isn't in sarge yet, I didn't try to reproduce any of these bugs myself) I have ignored all cases where in the past month a version of the package made it to sarge, since I assume it is quite likely that by natural way, als the new package will make sarge. Based on this list, these package really need to make sarge, because they have multiple bugs here: - xfree86 - nagios - mozilla - abiword - curl - util-linux? 2003-12-15>2003-12-15 212303: panorama: panorama: FTBFS: _registerPlugin declared extern and later static -
