Yep, they are, 3 different versions of them, which closes many of the
bugs against the package, and provide support for more than just pmac
powerpc. They are in the NEW queue since over one month, and will
probably stay there at eternam or something such, which is why i have
stopped doing d-i work since over a month (well, i was also busy with
other stuff and such, but still, d-i is a priority).

Mmm, yes, that i could do. I wonder however if this will not cause
problems with the other packages in the NEW queue. I was thinking of
making a sarge security upload trough sarge's testing-proposed-updates.

That said, i would really like it a lot better if the the packages in
the NEW queue would get processed, or at least if i get some reason as
to why they are not. The standard NEW message tells it gets processed
once per week, which is undoubtly a lie, and should better be changed to
something more truthfull.

And then there is the problem with mail going to ftp-masters just
disappearing, without even an aknowledgement. So there is really
_nothing_ i can do about this. Which makes me wonder if my work for
debian is still welcome, and also if Branden's proposal of more strict
control on the delegates would not have been best. Altough i doubt that
it would have changed anything in this case.

 What needs fixing there?

The modules are not in the kernel-image package, but in the
kernel-module package, and there need to be subarch suppport to extract
the different kernels from their corresponding kernel-image packages.

There need also to be support for building the builtin initrd, from the
initrd with the modules from the kernel-modules, and using the stuff in
the kernel-build packages.

Finally, we need to fix the floppy target for old world and miboot,
which in turn needs the powerpc-small configuration, which is also
sitting in the NEW queue.

BTW, you didn't tell me if enabling the CONFIG_RTC option in your kernel
will break pmac booting or not.

Please don't do that. IMO this would be very bad DD behaviour as this
would break all current installs of your package (they are all
powermacs). This can not be justified with your situation as the ones
affected by this breakage would be your users and they are in no way

I can in part understand your anger. But I don't think that the way you
are dealing with it will work. Probably debian-boot is not the right
list to discuss your problem, because it's not really debian-boot
related (although it would help d-i development if the package would be
accepted). I'm not sure, but I think there has not been any processing
of new packages since the compromise. This would at least explain why
your package is not processed now.

Yep, i know. Not worse than the current treatment though.

Also, consider, that i cannot test the packages currently in the
archive, since i don't own pmac hardware, and can't thus in concience
not declare releasable the package currently in the archive and which i
have no way of testing.

Furthermore, these packages contain the local root exploit, and there is
no way i will let the beta2 be released with them. Also, joeyh doesn't
seem to care, and don't even mention this problem when making status
updates and such, my mails to ftp-masters go unanswered since more than
a month, and aj, who is also a ftp-master if i am not wrong, denied on
irc having knowledge of it. elmo on the other hand had not the time to
respond to me and tell me what he reproaches to my packages, but has
time to make comments to joeyh behind my back.

 would break all current installs of your package (they are all

Sure, but at least i will be able to test it, and the users in question
would fill bug reports, which i could tag d-i and RC, instead of
everyone just plainly ignoring the problem and making as if nothing did
happen.

 You have to find a way to handle this without harming your users. 

There is no way. The only way to change this is for the ftp-masters to
take their responsabilities, and at least respond to me with some
information on how i can fix their concerns. This has not happened, and
for all i know, the ftp-masters are MIA or something. Or maybe i am
still in elmo's killfile and he doesn't read emails from me or
something. 

And if myself alone, am considered as a second zone DD, not worth of at
least a reply to a serious email concerning this matter, i need the
support of the other powerpc users on that, and that something happens.

It is really sad that this kind of thing can only advance with public
rants and threats, but this seems to be the way things work in debian. I
guess i will be voting for Branden in next year's DPL election after

Well, joeyh wants a new beta2 to be released on december 28. What do you
think will happen, either there will be no powerpc support, or we will
release a beta installer containing a kernel with a known local root

which is way i included joeyh personnaly as recipient of the email.

Also, i see it already happening, on the eve of christmas, my package
will be entering the archive, and instead of passing nice christmas with
our family we will be hurrying to fixing things in order for it to be
ready for the december 28 date.

So, joeyh, please, if there is not something happening on this front
quickly, consider one of these courses of action :

  1) drop support for powerpc in the beta2 (and explain why).

  2) postpone the beta2 date to something more realistic with the (lack
 of) schedule of the ftp-masters. In particular not a date which
 will force us to pass christmas doing package work while we could
 have done it anytime in this past month and half or so.

Are you sure that your rants don't just make fewer and fewer people

counterproductive in Debian, and I've never had any trouble with

there's less resistance to dealing with people who make themselves easy

off people who rant. Ranting about *this* might help you let off steam
but it's hardly going to solve the actual problem.

Welcome to human nature. Work with it, don't fight it. The ftpmasters
are not demons, but if you persist in treating them all the time as if
they are then you can hardly expect priority service.

Well, i follow the example of what happened some 6-8 month from now. I
filled a bug against ftp.debian.org, CCed to the RM asking for the
removal of two or three packages from testing which were blocking 40+
packages to enter testing, and which the ocaml maintainer team has
discussed was the best solution to handle this. I got _no_ response for
a long time, and the situation got only cleared when i complained for a
week or so on debian-devel, for something that could have been handled
by simply responding to me. The same thing happens now. I wrote to the
RM, to the ftp-masters, because i heard elmo has made reservations to
joeyh about this (why ever not to me directly, i don't understand),
giving explanation of what i did, the reasons behind it, explaining the
pro and cons of the solution i choose and asking for advice on how to
best resolve the reservations if they where. Later i mailed aj directly,
as RM, and i think Gaudenz or another powerpc d-i person also mailed
ftp-masters about this. This was over a month ago now, and i have had
absolutely no return, even worse, aj, who is one of the ftp-masters as
well as the RM denied being informed of it, which makes me wonder what
happened to those mails. Did they get redirected to /dev/null or
something ? I sincerely doubt they got read, and i see no other way to
making these people aware of the problem they don't seem to care about
than making a tantrum on the public lists. 

This is not like it should be, it is a sad state, and which seriously
makes me wonder if my contribution to debian is welcome, or if i should
let everything fall, and consecrate my time to projects with more
respect to the contributions of individual developers.

to engaging conversation with them, they don't respond. So what was your
point ? And it is not like i don't know that they are busy, i waited for
more than a month, and got absolutely zero feedback. And you well know
that mostly mails that are in your mailbox after more than a month will
probably just be forgotten.

 storm of ranting then I will put it off and do something else no matter
 what names you call me (and getting personal and calling me names *will*
 just make me inclined to put it off even further because it's obviously

Did i call anyone names ? Please provide quotes if you think so, and i
will apologize for them, but seriously, i doubt that is the case.

Don't you see that the ftp-masters, by not providing timely feedback,

This issue is needed for 1) continued work on the d-i support on
powerpc and 2) to close the security exploit in the powerpc _kernel_
package. It is inadmissible that this is not replied to in a timely
fashion, and if they are concerns, they should be voiced to _me_ and not
spoken to some mostly uninvolved third party behind my back.

 reducing one's personal level of stress, it makes perfect sense to put

 Why not migrate to subversion ?

Or why not to gnu arch?

Let me guess: 
 We are only 18 days before a new release,
 so there is no time for tool switch.

If we want to do that without droping the history, we need a special
version of cvs2svn which know about the release tags, otherwise it will
produce many useless copies as tags.

if we want to use that, please not on alioth as they don't provide http
access.

I'm interesting about maintaining ja.po and improving routine around CJK
terminal.
My account is kmuto on alioth.

Could you add me to committer?

Thanks,
