Bug#612620: rxvt-unicode-ml: backspace doesn't work in mutt any more
Excerpts from Samuel Thibault's message of Wed Feb 09 10:50:15 -0500 2011: On upgrade from 9.07-2+b1 to 9.09-3, the backspace key stopped working in mutt. Downgrading again makes it work again. I guess that is related with the switch between rxvt-unicode and rxvt-256color, as these are really far appart, actually... 9.09-5 (unstable) should fix this. On upgrade you will be transitioned from rxvt-unicode-ml to rxvt-unicode (same as the old -ml package), if you want to deal with the 256-color mess there is rxvt-unicode-256color. If this does not go smoothly for you please open another bug. (If you know anyone who wants to adopt rxvt-unicode, I'm about to send a message to -devel. I'm not going to touch the other thread.) -- things change. deck...@red-bean.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#605951: rxvt-unicode: colors are totally fucked up
Excerpts from Marc Lehmann's message of Thu Dec 09 06:30:03 -0500 2010: The original urxvt uses rxvt-unicode and rxvt-unicode-256color TERM values, respectively, which are the correct values, and portable. By respectively, what are you referring to? as added benefit debian wouldn't be needlessly incompatible to the rest of the world (which uses the correct terminfo files). There is no rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo entry in Debian or the rxvt-unicode distribution that I can see, but (see above) I don't know exactly what you mean here. it would be preferable if debian clearly marked their version of rxvt-unicode as completely incompatible to upstream and other distributions I'm sorry. I don't *want* us to be incompatible, or to break anything. I am trying to deal with a longstanding user request (for something I don't even use), and make it actually possible to use that feature. I really don't know if it's going to work. It may not make it from unstable into a distribution. (or alternatively maybe consider not continuously and deliberately breaking it...) What else do you still consider *deliberately* broken? I would like to address it. (For other issues, it's not necessary to reply to this bug. Comment on another one, flame me privately, whatever.) If debian really insuist on doing their own incompatible patches, This is not our own patch. I am trying to use it because you for whatever reason deemed it worth including (not applied) in the upstream distribution (9.09). it would be far better to rename the package to something like debian-rxvt, and certainly set the TERM values to something like debianurxvt or so, as opposed to introducing more subtle bugs and giving users a chance to install the correct debian-specific terminfo on remote systems. A distro-specific terminfo entry is the last thing I want. Really. Users need to log in to other systems. That is why we are right now, as you say, fucked. (*) debian has a long tradition of non-communication with upstream OK, I think I must be frank here. I'm not going to randomly send stupid questions to an upstream that without fail has been abusive to every rxvt-unicode Debian maintainer that I can remember. Sorry. and deliberate bug-introducing patches, Really, which do you think is the simpler explanation here? - You disagree with us on X, Y, and Z, and people make mistakes - I am the last in a long line of maintainers who have all independently come up with a sinister plot to undermine you by deliberately making our own users unhappy even going as far as removing our request to report bugs in the debian version to debian only from the FAQ section, as we are not responsible for their bugs. This is simply not true.

Excerpts from Jérémy Lal's message of Sat Aug 21 13:06:41 -0400 2010: In fact nodejs-waf script adds /usr/share/nodejs/wafadmin and Tools/ to sys.path before importing Scripting module.

I took a look at the script, and it is prepending the following to sys.path: ['/usr/bin/../lib/node/wafadmin', '/usr/bin/../lib/node/wafadmin/Tools'] these should have 'share/nodejs', not 'lib/node'.

Bug#588860: netcat: -q option has gratuitously incompatible default value
Excerpts from David Caldwell's message of Mon Jul 12 16:30:58 -0400 2010: Debian netcat has an extra -q option. This is not a problem except that the default for the -q option (o_quit in the source) makes netcat behave differently on Debian than on other systems.

Commenting these lines back out, or replacing hw:0,0 with default, made it work. That used to be the default, but it caused so many headaches and support nightmares, it was changed. In addition to actual problems, dmix works only for the same uid, severely degrades the sound quality and increases CPU usage. You're free to activate it if you wish.

Excerpts from Benedikt Spranger's message of Wed Apr 07 11:35:53 -0400 2010: The -q flag introduced by Debian is completely superfluous and harmful. It causes a lot of trouble in a cross platform environment. Furthermore the implementation changes netcat to a non standard behaviour. I've corrected this in netcat-openbsd (1.89-4). After reviewing the source in both packages and testing versions with the -q patch removed entirely, I've determined that the default behaviors in *hobbit*'s netcat and OpenBSD netcat are not the same (OpenBSD normally quits on EOF, *hobbit*'s does not unless you add and use a -q flag). At this point, I believe that anyone who has chosen to keep Debian's netcat-traditional installed instead of upgrading probably depends on its warts and quirks, so I'd prefer to only fix netcat-openbsd to make it work as people expect and not the (arguably broken) traditional way.

Excerpts from Micah Anderson's message of Mon Nov 09 23:49:32 -0500 2009: The new sup provides a new experimental Xapian backend to replace Ferret, as detailed in the release announcement[0].

Bug#555310: Upgrade of rxvt-unicode messes with my alternative installation
Excerpts from Patrick Schoenfeld's message of Mon Nov 09 05:28:40 -0500 2009: (Basically this is the german translation of removing manually selected alternative - switching x-t-e to auto mode and using /usr/bin/gnome-terminal.wrapper to provide /usr/bin/x-terminal-emulator (x-terminal-emulator) in auto mode) This was done to fix #481123. urxvtcd, which I assume you had selected, is not suitable for x-terminal-emulator (since it always immediately returns instead of running until the terminal closes, which I agree is a major problem), so I decided that the alternative should be removed entirely on upgrade. The priority for /usr/bin/urxvt is pretty low since users who don't know what they're installing probably want the more standard xterm or gnome-terminal. Thus, reverting to auto mode did not give you urxvt. (If you did not have urxvtcd selected, or no longer have an alternative for urxvt, then I have horribly messed something else up.) I see two solutions here: (1) update-alternatives is extended in some way to let you rank all alternatives, or save a stack of selections, or prioritize other alternatives from the same package on removal, or (2) I add a special case here to manually force the selection to urxvt if urxvtcd was selected. (I guess there is also (3) increase /usr/bin/urxvt's alternative priority on the assumption that only users who know they want it are going to install rxvt-unicode... but it's hard to say that about a package that's not Priority: extra.) Severity is kind of a stretch. Basically I'm not sure if /etc/alternatives are to be considered configuration files, but as they reflect local configuration choices I consider it to be a policy violation to mess with them, because Debian policy 10.7.3 should apply to those links to follow the policies spirit. I am, however, not sure weither the bug is in rxvt-unicode or not, so please feel free to reassign it if needed. If you think (1) is best I guess this could be wishlist on dpkg. I'm not sure; I don't know if anything will ever get done about it in that case, but (2) feels much more against the spirit of not messing with the user's /etc than deferring to update-alternatives. (N.b. currently, rxvt-unicode has been dropped from testing since the other bug was raised to RC and I didn't deal with it in time. This bug being RC will continue to keep it out. I'd like to avoid that.) -- things change. deck...@red-bean.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#555310: Upgrade of rxvt-unicode messes with my alternative installation
Excerpts from Patrick Schoenfeld's message of Mon Nov 09 14:47:01 -0500 2009: 3) Well, your package already has the wrong configuration (according to policy it should have 20) but increasing it wouldn't help much. Hm. I'm not sure why the priority was originally lower that what's currently specified in policy; I'll fix it. /usr/bin/urxvt doesn't fail any of the requirements (IMO the problem with urxvtc falls under in the manner that xterm does). IME the change should be to: 1. Not remove the alternative if its set to urxvtcd 2. Add a note to NEWS.Debian, telling about the problem and all its consequences Yes, this is probably the least-disruptive thing. I'll just put a conditional on the update-alternatives call and write up a note. I can understand you in that point. But as long as there is a bug about messing with admins configuration without at least a note about this, the package /should not/ migrate to testing again.

Bug#481123: breaks x-terminal-emulator interface
severity 481123 wishlist thanks Excerpts from Andreas Amann's message of Mon Oct 26 07:51:55 -0400 2009: This seems not justified, and the better solution is in my opinion to simply not offer urxvtcd as x-terminal-emulator alternative. I think you're right -- I was trying to implement Martin's suggestion, but it seems like (a) I don't have the libev-fu to hack it (b) it would be hairy enough (touching the rxvt_term class, not just the daemon) that our notoriously prickly upstream would never accept a patch. I've removed the alternative for 9.06-2 (uploading).

Bug#545559: Init script: Cannot _stop_ mpd when START_MPD is set to false.
Excerpts from Florian Forster's message of Tue Sep 08 02:20:24 -0400 2009: The value of “START_MPD” should not effect the shutdown behavior. Otherwise mpd may not be shut down gracefully when the system is stopped. I'm not sure exactly what you want this to do. Are you starting MPD at some point after boot as it is configured in the package, or are you running it from a user account? What is the issue with starting mpd on boot? It seems like if we can fix that, the root of the problem would be solved. For extra credit it'd be nice to be able to disable automatic start of the daemon on system startup yet be able to start the daemon “by hand” at a later point (without changing /etc/default/mpd back and forth). The init system just runs the script. If there's a proper way to detect by hand invocation I am unaware of it. (Of course, /etc/default/mpd is sourced by the shell. You're allowed to kludge it there with something like test -f /etc/nologin START_MPD=false...) -- things change. deck...@red-bean.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

The package includes a /etc/diakonos.conf, which looks like a perfectly reasonable configuration file. The program should use this file for defaults, then override them with any settings in the user's personal dotfile, if that file exists, like most *nix programs. If it is impossible to implement that for now, then /etc/diakonos.conf should silently be copied to ~/.diakonos on startup if the latter does not exist. End-users should never have to pull fresh configuration files from a development repository, even from a tag; they should use the stable one shipped with the package. (If I understand the goal of this package correctly, a sizable segment of its target audience shouldn't be pestered about configuring anything at all. I don't, however, feel it's as much of a problem if users who *do* wish to configure their editor need to copy the whole default file to their ~/.diakonos before tweaking it; they presumably know what they're getting into.) This does not only make the package unusable for one user if their network is down, but also for everyone if the development host (I assume it's fetching this directly from Github) has an outage for any reason. The package should be self-contained (it already has the file in question, anyway). So, I'm marking this as grave. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.29 (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages diakonos depends on: ii ruby 4.2An interpreter of object-oriented diakonos recommends no packages. diakonos suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Upon reading the code, it appears that the first entry (current directory) is taken from an installation-wide conf_dir setting. These settings are defined in /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/diakonos/installation.rb. This file should definitely be customized for Debian; it looks like it has been left with the default settings for running diakonos out of a working copy. Something like: :prefix = '/usr', :bin_dir = '/usr/bin', :doc_dir = '/usr/share/doc/diakonos', :help_dir = '/usr/share/diakonos/help', :conf_dir = '/etc', :lib_dir = '/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/diakonos', Note that the help files are not currently installed by the package and I don't really know what it needs doc for (it may not have anything to do with /usr/share/doc). Anyway, with these values corrected, diakonos sanely offers to copy the config file from /etc rather than downloading one.

No. This is *why* testing and the buildds exist -- we can track whether or not packages are buildable and installable with *software*. You are asking me to do it by hand. Unstable does not exist so that you can carelessly get the latest and greatest software; it exists so that we can break it. Use testing.

But in this case, this is just carelessness from your side: you should not build-depend on a library not in unstable, and upload the resulting package. As a side effect, buildds are choking on the package. They are not here to choke on careless build-deps, but to build the archive. Sometimes, often, they do choke for *real* porting problems. But that isn't the case here. You're imposing an extra load on the buildds for something you *know* won't work.

Of course, you are right. I will move mpd to Should-Start: (and Should-Stop:) in the LSB block so that it works when MPD is not installed on the same host.

You should probably file this upstream at http://musicpd.org/mantis/. I don't see anything currently in the feature category that looks like it. Excerpts from Daniel Dickinson's message of Sun Jan 04 23:18:40 -0500 2009: Package: mpd Severity: wishlist It'd be nice if mpd could store song ratings (preferably per-user) so that one could quickly select only favourites for a playlist, or to be able to listen to many hours of okay music instead of too many repeats of the favourites. A 'not yet rated' flag would be helpful so that you could easily find songs not yet rated. Alternatively, using playlists of, say favourites and okay, and having a 'new' flag that one could remove when when has decided what playlist (if any) new songs belong in, would be nice. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- things change. deck...@red-bean.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

I will have to tell them to come back when they can produce the problem using the mpd user, which is a PITA for everyone involved.

Well, upstream doesn't seem to like it: http://lists.schmorp.de/pipermail/rxvt-unicode/2008q4/000721.html I realize I should have pointed out (to you) that urxvtc does send its environment to the new terminal that urxvtd creates. That may or may not be useful. (OK not really, what we would like here is for urxvtcd to Just Work out-of-the-box...) Ultimately I think using a login shell for this (as mentioned in the thread) would be the way to go. Since not all users want every terminal to be a login shell (I don't), I'd have to leave the default as off, and make it a FAQ... and then we'd have to ensure that bash and zsh correctly set SHLVL to some known value for login shells (which seems like what one wants here) -- it seems to me that they should anyway. You want to count the number of shells from the login shell, right? (OTOH, if Debian's /etc/bashrc fixes this up and other distributions don't... meh.) -- things change.

Bug#500703: urxvtcd: increments $SHLVL for daemon process

What is $SHLVL good for? (I don't use bash.) According to the documentation, it is incremented by each bash process, so if urxvtd is in fact started by a bash process, this seems like a correct reflection of what happened. If you're going to use a shell that sets SHLVL and need it to start at a known value in each terminal window, I would suggest creating a wrapper for urxvtd that initializes it. urxvtcd could of course be replaced with a tiny C program but I'm just not sure why it would be necessary. -- things change.

Bug#500703: urxvtcd: increments $SHLVL for daemon process
martin f krafft writes: Well, only if /bin/sh is bash. No, also with dash and zsh. And for the cases where $SHLVL is not set, my patch will just no-op. I tested dash here and it didn't (the man page also makes no mention of SHLVL either). Are you sure? As for zsh, I suppose I should have assumed it has everything ;-) I guess my point was just that if it says #!/bin/sh it's a script for any POSIX shell and this is a workaround for a feature in shells that are a superset of POSIX. I'd like to see dash as the default /bin/sh sooner rather than later so that things like this don't come up. Well, yes and no. I use SHLVL to tell make my $PS1 tell me when I am in a subshell. I don't care that there are already two shells involved just to get the terminal (xsession (where I reset SHLVL myself) + urxvtcd). I'm not *strongly* opposed to doing something in rxvt-unicode, but I do think this (I mean, SHLVL itself) is an ugly hack. Isn't what you actually want here counting *interactive* shells? From a little googling it seems that what people want SHLVL for is displaying something in PS1 or otherwise modifying interactive behavior. For this purpose I think something like case $- in *i*) ishlvl=$(($ishlvl+1));; esac would be more useful (do normal programs, as opposed to shell init scripts, ever consult SHLVL?). As you said, the value SHLVL normally starts at sitting in front of an X session is totally arbitrary and useless. I'd really prefer to discourage its use. Plus, the shell that spawns urxvtcd or urxvtd will not be around anymore when the terminal is spawned: Right, but the definition of SHLVL doesn't say anything about this. So, if bash runs my ~/.xsession, the SHLVL in the environment is still incremented when that shell disappears by exec-ing the session manager. Sure, but let me ask you the opposite, in the face of the aforementioned the shell that spawns urxvtcd or urxvtd will not be around anymore: why should $SHLVL be incremented at all? Well, I also think this is dumb, but only because I think SHLVL itself is dumb. :-) It seems to be the natural consequence of the design -- if some random thing happened to be invoked by a shell, SHLVL is incremented, whether we care about it in the real world or not. Adding a workaround here is possible, but won't fix that broken design for other programs. -- things change.

However, if you don't use MPD, you can still install this package and use peel to rip CDs. No, the world certainly does not need another CD ripper[1], but it, along with lastmp etc, weren't doing much good sitting in lastfmsubmitd and muddying the purpose of that package. So I've split them out. There's absolutely no new code in this version. MPD users (who still need something to send data to Last.fm; this is the important one) will get the usual transitional package. Basically any other random music tool that speaks lastfmsubmitd-ish YAML would be welcome here (maybe a tag editor?). This should make it less painful for other player plugins[2] to depend on lastfmsubmitd. (and lastmp won't be an entire binary package for a less-than-250-line script...) As far as I can tell this name is so dumb that there is little chance of it getting confused with some other package, generic as it may be.

Instead of using a database or filesystem hierarchy, you store your entries in a Maildir. Writing a blog entry is thus as easy as sending an email, and rebuilding the blog can be automated with mail filters, cron, etc. . XHTML and XML are generated with Kid templates; a bare-bones web view and an Atom feed are included as examples. Mnemosyne is extensible in Python to add features such as input preprocessing (reStructuredText is used by default), metadata (tags are standard) and filtering entries for custom feeds. Yes, yet another static intarblog thing. I have found some interest in blogging again, and would like to get it in better shape (almost everything that should be added can be done as an extension, but the extension interface is somewhat incomprehensible). As far as I know the Maildir design is unique. I wrote this ages ago, and in the meantime another package was renamed to mnemosyne, so in the tradition of epiphany-browser (and sup-mail, which I am presently packaging) I'm going with mnemosyne-blog and renaming things out of the way appropriately. The short description starts with a capital letter only because Maildir is spelled with an M. Note: license in the released version is still MIT, but I'm transitioning most of my non-GPL code. Before this goes in I will probably roll 0.9.1. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Kernel: Linux 2.6.25.6 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#486807: since upgrade urxvtcd does not start anymore
Patrick Schoenfeld writes: BTW. note that it states it would be 9.02 if launched via urxvtcd. Thats strange, because urxvtcd and rxvt-unicode both state that its version is 9.05, only the urxvtc binary says it is 9.02. So it seems your package does not install a new version of this binary. That is... extremely strange. urxvtc has not gone anywhere (I'm using it right now, albeit on amd64). You can see for yourself at: http://packages.debian.org/sid/i386/rxvt-unicode/filelist Does your output of `dpkg -L rxvt-unicode` match that?

Bug#486807: since upgrade urxvtcd does not start anymore
Patrick Schoenfeld writes: It now works. However I think that its more then suboptimal if an upgrade makes running sessions impossible to use. Isn't there a better way to handle the client-server connections between urxvtc and urxvtcd? It would be nice, but I don't know of any sensible way to replace the running daemon -- if some random user is even running one. It would be kind of like restarting xdm on every upgrade. Incompatible upgrades are at least very rare. I agree that they should not happen in point releases, FWIW. I could put a message in the postinst reminding people to restart but (a) relying on being able to print stuff there is bad (b) most users probably don't care about urxvtd (c) the ones that do are probably aware of this issue (d) every time I see that message from Iceweasel I roll my eyes and ask what operating system this is again. So, I don't know. If you have any ideas I'm open to them. (Ccing the bug, even though it's closed, for the sake of future travelers) -- things change.

Raphael Hertzog writes: That's fine, but if you consider those as patchs to the upstream source ready to be merged, place your added manual page in the upstream hierarchy and not inside debian. I guess this makes sense. I'll do it in the meantime. However I hope that by then we'll have examples of tools to generate 3.0 (quilt) source packages directly from a git repository. Cool. I was hoping this would be the case, but I gave up on following the discussion very closely once people started arguing about which VCS was better :-) -- things change.

Bug#450602: Taking up ITP for sup
retitle 450602 ITP: sup-mail -- console based email client with tagging and fast search owner 450602 [EMAIL PROTECTED] block 450604 by 450602 kthxbye I am interested in packaging sup for Debian. I plan on packaging all the required libraries for non-gem installation (ITPs to follow)[1]. I currently have a package that works, but only if the gems are already installed. I can throw this on git.debian.org if anyone is interested in testing or helping out. I have changed the name here to sup-mail, but might consider sup-mailer. William, I would appreciate your opinion here (sup in Debian is taken by some unrelated program). The two other packages I use with this problem, git-core and epiphany-browser, both use a dash (and I am about to ITP mnemosyne-blog, so there you go). Also, I plan on providing a sup-next package for experimental, so this would be more consistent. [1] Nothing wrong with gems per se, they just aren't useful here. Users need to be able to type apt-get install sup-mail and that requires using our system, just like how we don't use CPAN or eggs. Perhaps when I'm done with this I'll have something that makes it easier to make a .deb out of a gem. -- things change.

Bug#485160: Bug#485178: netcat: FTBFS when converted to new source format 3.0 (quilt): patches modify files in debian directory
Raphael Hertzog writes: In the case of netcat, the quilt series contains patches that modify files in the debian directory. You shouldn't have to dynamically patch the files in the debian directory since its content is provided by the .diff.gz (or the new .debian.tar.gz in the new format). The reasoning for this was that - The manual page (nc.1) was added by Debian - a couple of the quilt patches add new options which are logically separate from those in other patches So, additions to nc.1 were placed in whichever patch added the documented feature. I am in the process of converting everything to git-buildpackage, so this problem will go away. For lenny, I'd like to keep the format as it is so that the patch series for -openbsd (new) can be compared to the existing one in -traditional. Immediately after that I will start uploading from git (AIUI, until we can really upload 3.0 source packages, this will result in a big ugly .diff.gz, which I would not consider fit for release in the case of such a heavily modified package as netcat). I'll close these bugs whenever that is. -- things change. [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Bug#458375: Sponsorship
Daniel Kahn Gillmor writes: my latest efforts at packaging it rely instead on the new debian/rules minimization that's possible with debhelper 7, which addresses many of the concerns (and more) in a standardized way. Great; that's what I was going to suggest. (Gotta love that rules file...) The main outstanding issue that i haven't dealt with is the set of warnings that come up when compiling with -Wall -- i'll work on that when i get a bit more free time, since i'd like to be able to offer a changeset upstream instead of just a nag. How do you plan on managing patches, and the packaging in general? I could help with this particular issue, but it'd be more convenient if your SVN repo looked like a standard svn-buildpackage layout (with upstream on a branch). The latest version is 20071230-2, published in the usual place: Have you asked upstream if they plan to do a real version number? My personal preference is to do something ugly like 0~20071230 now rather than be stuck with 1:1.0 and so on later. (This is opinion, you can ignore it :)) -- things change.

Bug#479574: Window shifts when executing font-change via escape sequence
martin f krafft writes: echo -en \033]50;-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed-*-13-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-1\007 changes the font used by the XTerm. It also causes the rxvt-unicode window to shift +1+1, which it shouldn't. Just out of curiosity, what WM are you running? It appears that urxvt doesn't adjust the ResizeInc hints on the window, either, which makes aewm fail rather glaringly. I'd like to recover from that better. As for the bug, it should be sufficient to have urxvt not set the flags for X and Y position when it reconfigures the window -- only the width and height are important. This is (at a very cursory check) what XTerm does, and XTerm works for me. (The resize-hint thing is a property change and will probably require adding code.

Bug#471111: mpd_stop should preferentially invoke mpd --kill
Nick Black writes: Per the man page, mpd --kill is the proper way to shut down mpd. I'm not sure this is implied by the wording. Regardless, --kill functions by reading the pid_file and sending a SIGTERM to the mpd process. start-stop-daemon (as called by our init script) sends SIGTERM, waits 5 seconds, then sends SIGKILL. If your system is extremely loaded, perhaps MPD does not respond to the SIGTERM within 5 seconds. Try changing the value given for --retry. If this solves a reproducible problem for you, I'll consider increasing it. However, if your system seems fine otherwise, it would be helpful if you could examine closely what is going on during the timeout. It may be a sign of some other problem. -- things change.

Bug#469690: lastmp: Crashes when song title contains non-ascii characters
Joris van Rooij writes: Plus, the lastfm user has it's shell set to /bin/false and it's home dir does not exist. That pretty much keeps it from using any env variable I have changed anywhere, right? Should be using /etc/environment, I believe. I have LANG set there to en_US.UTF-8. While something like this has been working[1] for most people, it's not great. The problem is that the locale I want for my environment doesn't really have anything to do with the encoding I use for my tags; they're just hopefully the same if I keep things organized. But then a tag may have invalid UTF-8. It really should be fixed in MPD; I haven't looked too closely at what it does. It looks like this could be improved a lot, though, by doing more guessing on the input end and only considering the system locale for output purposes. You would end up seeing 'ignore' or 'replace' encoded stuff in your log file, which might be disconcerting, but... not a show-stopper. I'll see what I can do.

Bug#463901: mpd needs 'shout' audio output plugin compiled in package - Lenny
Brian Millan writes: Supported outputs: alsa ao oss pulse jack Hmm. Unfortunately, this is not surprising. See #453746; we don't build with libvorbis on arm, but rather libvorbisidec (Tremor, the integer decoder); e.g. the NSLU2 doesn't have a FPU so regular libvorbis is unacceptably slow. libvorbisidec, is, however, just a decoder; Shout needs to encode to Vorbis as well, and so depends on libvorbis (floating-point). Therefore if MPD is configured --with-tremor shout output is disabled. It *might* be possible to hack things up to use Tremor for decoding but still link against libvorbis for shout outputs, but this would probably be ugly and you'd still end up with poor performance.
