Okay, breaking down the changes: Check for CancelBackgroundTransactions setting again: Respect the CancelBackgroundSetting setting again See http://gitorious.org/packagekit/packagekit/commit/1423e638600e7fd045b1ced0d584d59519610748
Add GStreamer 1.0 support to the PackageKit plugin: GStreamer 1.0 support, not used in Debian. See http://gitorious.org/packagekit/packagekit/commit/9f69cf3c9c923bb63c35cdb25808fb837da2c303 Do not allow the client to overwrite files when downloading packages: Pretty obvious what this does :-) Both a bugfix and a security enhancement. See http://gitorious.org/packagekit/packagekit/commit/a4a0210809b7bfda0df6874fe39b86b66590ef26 Allow the user to specify standard GNU help options: Bugfix, as some applications expected standard GNU help options. Also minor new feature See http://gitorious.org/packagekit/packagekit/commit/1955750937f9c843235cb5cce98bb22c428e9f59 Fix several return values in pkcon when there is an error: Previously return codes weren't correct/weren't set on failure. See http://gitorious.org/packagekit/packagekit/commit/338842edf1a9d65b8708d514ab0f64fb684cf724 Ignore "accept-eula" in pk-transaction-run: Bugfix avoiding potential crash described in https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53532 See http://gitorious.org/packagekit/packagekit/commit/771d28c110007d954c9ae65c5287fe1ee186589a Inhibit shutdown when the package manager is locked: Only enabled if I build with systemd support, which is not enabled for Wheezy, so irrelevant. See http://gitorious.org/packagekit/packagekit/commit/3941902d9767ecac540abee992722f98f29a3092 Fix segfault in pkcon when user does ctrl-d at the package prompt: Kills this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=840342 See http://gitorious.org/packagekit/packagekit/commit/1594117d750e766309d3ff487bad3e39936a132c aptcc: Don't use tempfile with fixed name for conffiles: Resolves security issue in Debian, tracked as RC bug #678189 See http://gitorious.org/packagekit/packagekit/commit/e6e33f54dcc9b0058134e0d2584c2ee110ca0340 glib: Don't update the transaction role to 'unknown': Small, non-critical bugfix See http://gitorious.org/packagekit/packagekit/commit/ed8fd1d820b8bca2946c4351a011456bc4326d25 Drop the unused polkit-backend-1 check from configure as it's gone upstream: Does what it descibes :P Debian has a recent-enough PolKit version, so no issues and one useless check dropped. See http://gitorious.org/packagekit/packagekit/commit/68e6bc6fdf4a9994730370aca3a2878662600fb9 Fix a crash where NetworkManager is restarted whilst packagekitd is running: Important fix for packagekitd, I already got this reported by Debian users too. (Although it happens in a rare case) See http://gitorious.org/packagekit/packagekit/commit/1746179e446fa652027c673cff0f0f5e5daccd99 yum-fixes: Only affect the Yum backend in Fedora, doesn't get compiled in Debian and is therefore not relevant. (Ignore changes on backends/yum) lost of alpm changes: The alpm backend is also not shipped in Debian, so you can ignore all changes affecting this backend (in backends/alpm) too. All changes affecting global or Debian-related code are mentioned above. Hope this helps :-) Regards, Matthias 2012/9/3 Matthias Klumpp <[email protected]>: > Most of the changes have happened on a PackageKit backend which is not > relevant to Debian, so you can safely ignore these changes. > Anyway, I'll post a list of all commits & changes which were relevant to > Debian and comment on them here, so you don't have to review the stuff (and > can instead just read my comments).
