Dear release team, On the 24th of August, I uploaded to unstable a fix for #181756 to unstable. So far, nobody complained about it.
I would like to also fix the Wheezy version of bootlogd, through the proposed-updates. The proposed patch is here: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=51;filename=allow-multiple-console-output.patch;att=1;bug=181756 This patch is important for anyone that uses a server and wants to activate the serial console, while keeping tty0 working. This is also important when using a Debian image on the cloud: for example, using OpenStack, by default, it expects that logging to both tty0 and ttyS0, otherwise either the "nova log" or the interactive physical console through the web interface is broken (depending which console option you put in the kernel command line). Note that using console=/dev/console didn't work for me, only "console=/dev/tty0 console=ttyS0,115200" with the above bootlogd patch worked. What is the opinion of the release team? Does it seem reasonable to include this patch in the next point release of Wheezy? Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
