Dear Release Team, I would like to ask for some more freeze exceptions, 2 easy ones and one a bit more interesting:
The easy ones: ============================================================ texlive-doc (2007.dfsg.2-1) unstable; urgency=medium * blacklist wp-conv, nosell license (Closes: #511742) (RC->medium) -- Norbert Preining <prein...@debian.org> Wed, 14 Jan 2009 00:12:28 +0100 Simply removed some nosell files from the .orig.tar.gz and thus binary packages. ============================================================= texlive-extra (2007.dfsg.14-1) unstable; urgency=medium * add an updated res.cls with GPL license statement for resume (Closes: #510749) (RC -> medium) * blacklist geomsty, nocommercial license (Closes: #511743) (RC) -- Norbert Preining <prein...@debian.org> Wed, 14 Jan 2009 00:13:24 +0100 Same here, with the exception that I keep resume package (res.cls) due to the fact that the author agreed to change license to GPL. I added an entry in our license document documenting this. geomsty has been removed due to nocommercial license ============================================================= Now the trickier one: texlive-base (2007.dfsg.1-5) unstable; urgency=low * rename /etc/texmf/fmt.d/00tetex.cnf in postinst of texlive-common to 00tetex.cnf.obsolete. This prevents install failures in rare cases (Closes: #487630) [hp] -- Norbert Preining <prein...@debian.org> Fri, 09 Jan 2009 09:35:53 +0100 That is only about a change in the postinst code of texlive-common, that in addition renames another old file (from etch) which prevents install failures in some rare cases. We already rename some other old config files which are not properly removed from the tetex packages, but missed that one due to its oldness. Since this is not an RC bug we have urgency = low. If no freeze exception is granted for that one that is also fine, it will hit some people upgrading from etch -> sarge -> lenny but otherwise it should be fine. ============================== Thanks a lot and all the best Norbert (for the whole Debian TeX Team) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dr. Norbert Preining <prein...@logic.at> Vienna University of Technology Debian Developer <prein...@debian.org> Debian TeX Group gpg DSA: 0x09C5B094 fp: 14DF 2E6C 0307 BE6D AD76 A9C0 D2BF 4AA3 09C5 B094 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BEDFONT A lurching sensation in the pit of the stomach experienced at breakfast in a hotel, occasioned by the realisation that it is about now that the chamber-maid will have discovered the embarrassing stain on your bottom sheet. --- Douglas Adams, The Meaning of Liff -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-release-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
