Bug#121132: A script that may help in the mean time
Hey folks,
Sorry for breathing new life into this kind of old bug, but this whole wildcard
thing was something I was looking for myself. Basically, as an interim
solution, I've written some rather hackish Perl that does the job for me using
'apt-cache search' to do the wildcard matching. While not wonderful, it works
quite nicely for me and I thought I'd share it just in case it helps anybody
else who stumbles across this bug page (like I did).
The attached script is configured for stable (priority 500) with my own local
repo (priority 1000), volatile, backports.org and unofficial multimedia (all
default priority 10), defined in %repos. %pins then defines the packages I
want in each %repo entry to be pinned, in this instance, all linux-2.6.30 and
openoffice packages from backports, clamav from volatile, and a few things from
multimedia. @pinkeys and @repokeys just holds the hash keys so the script
knows which bits to process and which to ignore (if any). The preferences get
written to stdout, so you can check it before writing a file.
Usual disclaimer, works fine for me, may not for you, do what you like with it,
may kill your dog, not my fault, etc.
Cheers,
Chris Mortimore

Bug#436560: fluxbox: Double entry in KDM menu
Just to add to the info, this occurs on both i386 and amd64. I also discovered that this does NOT occur with ratpoison, it only appeared once in my KDM menu.

Bug#415959: psemu-drive-cdrmooby: Windows don't close when they should
Subject: psemu-drive-cdrmooby: Windows don't close when they should Package: psemu-drive-cdrmooby Version: 2.8+o-2 Severity: normal When you try and close the windows associated with CDRMooby2, they don't actually close. It seems that it is always the last window it plans to show stays. I've used the following test cases: Case 1: Choose to configure CDRMooby2 from within PCSX using the menus, and click OK in the config window. The window stays. Case 2: Again, open the CDRMooby2 config window, and compress an image using bz.index or .Z.table compression. The compression progress bar appears, then disappears as expected, and a dialog box appears saying Done. Dialog box closes, but closing the config window fails. Case 3: Choose Run CD from within PCSX, and choose an image ending in .iso (eg, disc1.iso). The file selection box disappears, and a warning appears about the plugin not supporting ISO9660 images. Clicking OK doesn't remove the warning box. The game plays OK though. Case 4: Choose Run CD from within PCSX again, and choose an image ending in .bin. The file selection box stays. The game still loads. If you need any more information, please get in contact with me.

Bug#414970: openoffice.org-calc: solver doesn't follow constraints
Package: openoffice.org-calc Version: 2.0.4.dfsg.2-5 Severity: important When using the solver to do linear programming, it always (at least when I've used it) gives answers outwith the constraints set. For example, for a 3 day weighted average forecast, the formula is: Ft = A*Dt-1 + B*Dt-2 + C*Dt-3 where A, B and C need to be between 0 and 1, and A+B+C=1. Putting this into the solver, it was bringing up the optimum values to be things like 1.1, -0.8, and A+B+C was always bigger than 1, clearly outwith the constraints set. I can provide the spreadsheet if you cannot reproduce the problem at your end. On a side note, this is when I have assume linear model set. If I unset assume linear model, the solver always says Iteration time out and doesn't give a solution.
