Bug#857926: Building the fglrx kernel module untested beyond Linux 4.4
Package description for fglrx-driver version 1:15.12-2~bpo8+3 (current jessie-backports) says: "Building the kernel module has been tested up to Linux 4.4" Looks like we just did the testing - I confirm your results.

Release notes for Intel NUC 2820 BIOS: https://downloadmirror.intel.com/26318/eng/FY_0055_ReleaseNotes.pdf Changes in version 55: - Security Enhancements - Changed the time it takes to enter the power button recovery menu to 4 seconds - Improved the BIOS update function by disabling the keyboard and power button during the flash/recovery process - Added Windows firmware update function - Added NVRAM preserved variables: DmiData, UUID, OA3Data - Fixed an issue that when the User Access Level= limited, the User could still access the following restricted Setup options: Minimum/Maximum Duty Cycle (%); Primary/secondary Temperature Sensor - Updated Visual BIOS to 2.2.20 from 2.2.19 - Hotfix to remove download driver and automatic BIOS update feature Changes in version 53: - Changed the time it takes to enter the power button menu to 3 seconds after G3 sleep state - Changed the time it takes to enter the power button menu to 4 seconds after S4/S5 sleep state I fail to see anything that might be related to our issue... But then I don't understand the issue either.

I encountered this perfectly reproducible exact 12% total freeze bug using a Jessie installer image dating back a few months on an Intel J1900 host with integrated Realtek network hardware - I'm afraid I don't know which Jessie sub-version. However, on the exact same hardware (including the USB flash dongle), the Debian installer completed successfully using the debian-8.2.0-amd64-netinst.iso image. Users who encountered this bug with a Jessie DI version older than the 8.2.0 that was published in September 2015 might want to try again with that one.

Bug#750500: installation-reports: Jessie amd64 netinst encrypted LVM: stuck at /target/boot/efi vfat partition creation
Package: installation-reports Severity: normal Tags: d-i Dear Maintainer, the Debian Installer from http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/amd64/iso-cd/debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso remains stuck and unresponsive right after committing the partitioning and formatting of an encrypted LVM full-disk setup. Switching between consoles and using consoles other than the DI remains possible, but the DI won't exit the screen announcing the creation of a vfat partition at /target/boot/efi. No suspect syslog or dmesg entry is evident. The Wheezy Debian Installer is perfectly functional using the same options on the same host. As I am currently waiting for the Wheezy DI to wipe the aforementioned host's encrypted partition, I am unable to gather more details from it, but I will upon request. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

So, dear maintainer - did you have a chance to package a version that includes https://github.com/paperbagcorner/Clementine/commit/4c23072bef9 ? This patch has been merged in the main branch as https://github.com/clementine-player/Clementine/commit/4c23072bef94314e3833f807e25d77114ced2759 Strangely, it is not included in the 1.2.3 release (https://github.com/clementine-player/Clementine/releases/tag/1.2.3) - for example see this two histories of /src/core/database.cpp : - Head : https://github.com/clementine-player/Clementine/commits/4c23072bef94314e3833f807e25d77114ced2759/src/core/database.cpp - includes 4c23072bef94314e3833f807e25d77114ced2759 - Tag 1.2.3 : https://github.com/clementine-player/Clementine/commits/1.2.3/src/core/database.cpp - no mention of that patch. Does anyone know why 4c23072bef94314e3833f807e25d77114ced2759 has not been picked for 1.2.3 ? Anyway... The 1.2.3 upstream Debian package at https://github.com/clementine-player/Clementine/releases/tag/1.2.3 is therefore not even worth testing. On the other hand, https://github.com/clementine-player/Clementine/commit/56dade25981da1656cbb68447e8518529e229978 claims to "fix slow library search on sqlite 3.8" and it is included in version 1.2.3 - but that is much less important than the aforementioned bug which this thread is about. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Package: dnsmasq Version: 2.55-2 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch When it receives a SIGUSR1, dnsmasq writes statistics to the system log. It writes the cache size, the number of names which have had to removed from the cache before they expired in order to make room for new names and the total number of names that have been inserted into the cache. For each upstream server it gives the number of queries sent, and the number which resulted in an error. /etc/init.d/dnsmasq should provide a method to trigger that statistics dump method.
