Bug#805116: ITP: wifi-switcher
In my opinion the program is ready for uploading under the GPL2, see http://chalaev.com/wifi-switcher https://github.com/chalaev/wifi-switcher https://github.com/chalaev/wifi-switcher/tree/master/current_release but I can not do it because I am not a Debian Developer. Is it possible to submit the program to a Debian Developer, or I have to register as a a Debian Developer myself?

Bug#823643: maxima-emacs must not depend on maxima and maxima-doc
Package: maxima-emacs Version: 5.38.0-3 Severity: wishlist I never use maxima-doc (prefer online help); I do not use maxima on my netbook. However, sometimes I print maxima files on my netbook from emacs using M-x ps-print-buffer-with-faces I suspect that maxima-emacs does not need neither maxima nor maxima-doc for its highlighting purposes. Moreover, some people (including myself) prefer to compile maxima manually rather than using Debian package. I find it unjustified that maxima-emacs depends on maxima and maxima-doc. I suggest separating these three packages (like it was in good old times): One should be able to use each of them without installing the other two. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.4.6n (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ru_RU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages maxima-emacs depends on: ii emacs24 [emacsen]24.5+1-6+b2 ii emacsen-common 2.0.8 ii maxima 5.38.0-3 ii maxima-doc 5.38.0-3 ii tex-common 6.05 ii texlive-binaries [texlive-base-bin] 2015.20160222.37495-1 ii texlive-latex-recommended2015.20160320-1 Versions of packages maxima-emacs recommends: ii ghostscript [postscript-viewer] 9.19~dfsg-1+b1 ii mime-support 3.59 ii zathura-pdf-poppler [pdf-viewer] 0.2.6-1 ii zathura-ps [postscript-viewer]0.2.3-1 maxima-emacs suggests no packages. -- debconf-show failed
Bug#820941: no more seen for 22 days
Since the bug submition I have not encountered the problem any more; "aptitude reinstall shorewall" works ok. It is possible that shorewall does not restart only when the package is upgraded to a new version.
Bug#822280: linux-image-4.5.0-1-amd64: No brightness control in Asus EEE Seashell netbook (worked in ver. 4.4.0)
Package: src:linux Version: 4.5.1-1 Severity: minor Brightness control works with older debian package linux-image-4.4.0-1-amd64. It also works with my manually compiled kernel 4.4.6. Before linux-image-4.5.0-1-amd64 appeared I tried to compile it manually, but I always had this brightness control problem. Now I see that the same problem appears with the Debian linux-image-4.5.0-1-amd64 package, so probably this is just a kernel bug. -- Package-specific info: ** Version: Linux version 4.5.0-1-amd64 (debian-ker...@lists.debian.org) (gcc version 5.3.1 20160409 (Debian 5.3.1-14) ) #1 SMP Debian 4.5.1-1 (2016-04-14) ** Command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.5.0-1-amd64 root=UUID=d4981108-a8ca-478b-941d-ed56c1920b75 ro apparmor=1 security=apparmor ** Tainted: E (8192) * Unsigned module has been loaded (currently expected). ** Kernel log: [ 13.976152] [drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810 [ 14.005594] input: PC Speaker as /devices/platform/pcspkr/input/input10 [ 14.227928] usbcore: registered new interface driver btusb [ 14.301997] input: HDA NVidia HDMI/DP,pcm=3 as /devices/pci:00/:00:1c.0/:04:00.1/sound/card1/input11 [ 14.307779] input: HDA NVidia HDMI/DP,pcm=7 as /devices/pci:00/:00:1c.0/:04:00.1/sound/card1/input12 [ 14.308429] input: HDA NVidia HDMI/DP,pcm=8 as /devices/pci:00/:00:1c.0/:04:00.1/sound/card1/input13 [ 14.308975] input: HDA NVidia HDMI/DP,pcm=9 as /devices/pci:00/:00:1c.0/:04:00.1/sound/card1/input14 [ 14.446137] asus_wmi: ASUS WMI generic driver loaded [ 14.479617] asus_wmi: Initialization: 0x0 [ 14.479838] asus_wmi: BIOS WMI version: 0.8 [ 14.480274] asus_wmi: SFUN value: 0x0 [ 14.482428] input: Eee PC WMI hotkeys as /devices/platform/eeepc-wmi/input/input15 [ 14.482992] asus_wmi: Number of fans: 1 [ 14.559323] iTCO_vendor_support: vendor-support=0 [ 14.703860] iTCO_wdt: Intel TCO WatchDog Timer Driver v1.11 [ 14.704180] iTCO_wdt: Found a NM10 TCO device (Version=2, TCOBASE=0x0860) [ 14.859116] media: Linux media interface: v0.10 [ 14.875053] Linux video capture interface: v2.00 [ 14.955974] nouveau :04:00.0: NVIDIA GT218 (0a8780b1) [ 14.974515] audit: type=1400 audit(1461357425.240:2): apparmor="STATUS" operation="profile_load" name="gst_plugin_scanner" pid=361 comm="apparmor_parser" [ 14.995530] nouveau :04:00.0: bios: version 70.18.82.00.07 [ 14.999083] nouveau :04:00.0: fb: 512 MiB DDR3 [ 15.054684] [TTM] Zone kernel: Available graphics memory: 1025922 kiB [ 15.054809] [TTM] Initializing pool allocator [ 15.054935] [TTM] Initializing DMA pool allocator [ 15.055085] nouveau :04:00.0: DRM: VRAM: 512 MiB [ 15.055200] nouveau :04:00.0: DRM: GART: 1048576 MiB [ 15.055321] nouveau :04:00.0: DRM: TMDS table version 2.0 [ 15.055437] nouveau :04:00.0: DRM: DCB version 4.0 [ 15.03] nouveau :04:00.0: DRM: DCB outp 00: 01000323 00010034 [ 15.055672] nouveau :04:00.0: DRM: DCB outp 01: 02011300 [ 15.055790] nouveau :04:00.0: DRM: DCB outp 02: 02022362 00020010 [ 15.055908] nouveau :04:00.0: DRM: DCB conn 00: 0040 [ 15.056077] nouveau :04:00.0: DRM: DCB conn 01: 0100 [ 15.056200] nouveau :04:00.0: DRM: DCB conn 02: 1261 [ 15.074262] uvcvideo: Found UVC 1.00 device USB2.0 UVC VGA WebCam (13d3:5702) [ 15.088352] [drm] Supports vblank timestamp caching Rev 2 (21.10.2013).

Bug#820941: shorewall: /etc/init.d/shorewall disappeared
Package: shorewall Version: 5.0.7.2-1 Severity: important Tags: security 2016-04-12 (perhaps after upgrade) I discovered that the file /etc/init.d/shorewall disappeared, so shorewall does not autostart at boot. I can start it manually (with "service shorewall start") however.

Bug#819524: isc-dhcp-server: /etc/default/isc-dhcp-server not recognized as part of the package
Package: isc-dhcp-server Version: 4.3.3-8 Severity: minor The file /etc/default/isc-dhcp-server is created inside postinst script and is not reported to be a part of the package. I wonder if that was done for some reason. I am developing a package able to set up a wireless hootspot, and I would like to divert /etc/default/isc-dhcp-server using standard debian tools, but can not do that because the system is not aware of this file. Do you think it would be better to include this file either in "conffiles" or "install"?

Bug#805116: ITP: wifi-switcher
Package: wifi-switcher Severity: ITP License: GPL Section: net Motivation: I think that network-manager and wicd duplicate functionality of reliable command line tools like wpasupplicant and hostapd. Following idea http://jamhed.dreamwidth.org/82198.html I wrote a simple perl script for automatic switching of my laptop between wifi-networks. For example, When I bring the laptop from home to my office, it realizes that the home wifi network is no more available and looks for available networks enlisted in its configuration file. If a known wifi-network is found, it connects to it. If more than one known wifi-network are found, the one with the highest priority is chosen. Undesirable networks are easilly disabled (forgotten). New open and wpa networks can be easily added to the configuration file. The entries for more sophisticated enterprise networks should be manually added to the configuration file in /etc/wpa_supplicant/ The script also switches between usual (client) wifi mode, and (server) ad-hoc wifi network mode with dhcp, ssh, and ftp servers. I sometimes use adhoc wifi mode with ftp-server to transfer the files from/to the smartphone. For now the script has working icewm interface. The emacs (elisp) interface is being tested. The pdmenu interface is planned. The web site is inactive for now, plan to use http://chalaev.com/wifi-switcher
