Bug#868197: libmwaw-tools description names the wrong binaries (from libvisio-tools)
Package: libmwaw-tools
Severity: minor
This package's description states:
> This package contains vsd2xtml and vsd2raw.
Those are actually from libvisio-tools (including an old misspelling).
libmwaw-tools contains mwaw2{html,raw,text}. Don't know if they actually
need to be mentioned at all.

Bug#752496: rocksndiamonds: not "in the tradition of" Legend of Zelda
Package: rocksndiamonds
Version: 3.3.0.1+dfsg1-2
Severity: minor
The description of this package reads, in full --
[ This package provides the game engine for Rocks'n'Diamonds, an arcade game in
the tradition of "Boulder Dash", "Emerald Mine", "Supaplex", "Sokoban", "Legend
Of Zelda", etcetera. Game levels emulating all of these can be downloaded from
ArtSoft.org. ]
rocksndiamonds is *not* in any way "in the tradition of" Legend of Zelda
("LZ"). LZ is a completely different style of game. The "Legend of Zelda" I
and II packages which may be downloaded from the RND author's web site are
simple adventures based on the concepts and setting of the LZ games. The
gameplay mechanics and events of these games are not closely related to the LZ
games; they're just based on them. The current situation is similar to saying,
for instance, that "The Simpsons is ... in the tradition of The Odyssey"
because an episode exists (I'm sure one or more does) glossing over the events
of some parts of The Odyssey.
Simply remove [ "Legend Of Zelda", ] from the description. It is not necessary
to mention it -- just like it is not necessary to mention the thousands of
other random levels which are based on random things, and are not currently
mentioned.
Each of the other games mentioned as "in the tradition of" *are* very strongly
supportable. In each case, RND closely emulates the original game mechanics
*and* offers (for download from the author's site) the actual original level
sets of said game, playable in RND.

Bug#568842: confirm Debian Unstable / Ubuntu Lucid package equivalency
I confirmed (1) that the 7 involved files, and (2) the entire packages are identical, except for maintainer info in the Debian control file, and file checksums due to different embedded gzip timestamps. So this bug is properly filed against Debian as the upstream wellhead. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Bug#568842: manpages-dev: {fopencookie,freeifaddrs,rawmemchr,readdir_r,getutmp{,x},utmpxname}(3) are no longer undocumented(3)
Subject: manpages-dev:
{fopencookie,freeifaddrs,rawmemchr,readdir_r,getutmp{,x},utmpxname}(3) are no
longer undocumented(3)
Package: manpages-dev
Version: 3.23-1
Severity: minor
The library functions fopencookie(3), freeifaddrs(3), rawmemchr(3),
readdir_r(3), getutmp(3), getutmpx(3) and utmpxname(3) are listed as missing,
according to undocumented(3).
Documentation of these functions IS included in manpages-dev, in these base man
pages:
fopencookie(3) is in fopencookie(3)
freeifaddrs(3) is in getifaddrs(3)
rawmemchr(3) is in memchr(3)
readdir_r(3) is in readdir(3)
getutmp(3) is in getutmp(3)
getutmpx(3) is in getutmp(3)
utmpxname(3) is in getutent(3)
These are also correctly indexed so that e.g. `man 3 readdir_r`, `apropos
rawmemchr`, and so on work correctly.
This is on Ubuntu 10.04 `Lucid Lynx' current alpha; but I believe manpages-dev
is a straight downstream from Debian.

Bug#362028: solution not so good for grub2 (maybe also grub1)
Copied from a comment I just put into Ubuntu bug 185878: >Bela< Martin & Colin, I've analyzed a performance problem in `grub-probe` on my Karmic system, in grub2, and found that it was caused by repeated BLKFLSBUF ioctls. Each call takes about .5 second and the overall probe does the ioctl dozens of times. Of course both of those factors will be different on each system, but in general I would expect them to be worse -- this system has 2.5GHz QC CPU, 4GiB memory, only one disk and only 2 OS partitions -- it could be _much_ worse. In comment #17, Colin Watson wrote: > grub needs to close and reopen the disk device, or (more easily) use > the BLKFLSBUF ioctl. In my grub2 `strace grub-probe` output, every single open() of a disk device was followed by a close() of that device before any other disk devices were accessed. In fact, it so happened that fd #4 was used every for every single read from a whole-disk or partition device, so clearly there was no overlap of open times. Due to this problem, each OS update which changes anything to do with grub (e.g. grub2 updates, but also kernel updates [which trigger a grub rescan & initrd rebuild]) takes many minutes to complete. Karmic has what appear to be dozens if not hundreds of duplicate bug reports about grub install failing -- many with error codes indicating a user interrupt. I take these to mean that the grub update is taking so long that the user manually aborts it, then raises a bug about the abort! I have not tested your grub1 PPA (or grub1 at all). I just wanted to alert you to this: _if_, during the process of scanning, it ends up doing a lot of BLKFLSBUF ioctls, it will have this problem. I suspect that the alternative solution of always making sure one has closed whole-disk devices before opening partition devices & vice-versa, won't have this performance problem. I'm going to email this same comment to the Debian 362028 tracker (assuming it will receive email from a random email address...) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
