Bug#862182: python-distutils-extra: Generated debian/rules file cannot be used with latest make
Package: python-distutils-extra
Version: 2.40
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
debian/rules file generated by python-mkdebian is broken. Current version of
GNU Make at least in Ubuntu Zesty complains about it:
debian/rules:4: *** missing separator (did you mean TAB instead of 8
spaces?).
So the package generated with python-mkdebian cannot be built.
Please consider the patch below:

Bug#763441: debhelper: treat systemd service files as conffiles
Package: debhelper Version: 9.20140817 Priority: normal Dear Maintainer, Please. add the handling of systemd service files as conffiles by default. Rationale: Common init systems, such as sysvinit, insserv, upstart etc. all store their service init files under the /etc directory. Currently all package files stored in /etc are considered conffiles, so they are not dumbly overwritten on the package updates. Sometimes administrators are required to modify service files (in /etc/init.d, /etc/init or options in /etc/default), forcing service to use custom config files, custom data dirs etc. and these changes are preserved. systemd itself brokes this practice, it stores its service files in the /lib/systemd/system/ directory, so the idea of keeping modified service files during the package update is not applied to it. As an example of the problem one can look at transmission-daemon package. Transmission has a config parameter forcing it to start at custom user privileges. Earlier it could be configured in /etc/transmission-daemon/settings.json. In systemd this parameter is ignored because systemd service parameter User is used. One has to change the value in /lib/systemd/system/transmission-daemon.service, if they wants to use custom user, and that value would be overwritten when a new version is installed. Obviously the issue in this very case can easily be solved in the transmission-daemon package itself, but I suppose that the common solution has to be involved, and all systemd service files to be treated as conffiles. May be all the files under /lib/systemd/system/ have to be marked as conffiles by default, or there is some special dh_systemd helper to be introduced. Thanks Best wishes and have a nice day, Vsevolod Velichko
Bug#658235: RFS: libjreen, the xmpp library (3rd try, 2 months later)
Dear Benoît, I'm very thankful for your package review. I've just fixed most of the things you mentioned. However, there're a couple of moments I'm unsure. I: libjreen1: no-symbols-control-file usr/lib/libjreen.so.1.0.1 There was a long C++ vs symbols discussion[1] recently with pros and contras. I suppose, that symbols really doesn't make sense for C++ and too hard to maintain (just to create the appropriate symbols file, I have to somehow upload the package with initial .symbols version, wait for build fails everywhere, collect buildd logs, and only there I'll be able to create real .symbols file). For example, dpkg-gensymbols generates 1633 lines of .symbols for this library. Are you sure that it's really needed? The dh_auto_install override could also be replaced by using debian/package.install files (see dh_install(1) for details). I'm unsure that .install is better solution. The one of mine should work in most cases, even if one change library and package names, I'll have to change only a package name in dh_auto_install override. In the case of .install files there would be more work. Am I right? I've uploaded new version to mentors[2], if you agree with my comments above, could you review and probably sponsor the fixed version, please?

The dh_auto_install override could also be replaced by using debian/package.install files (see dh_install(1) for details). - In debian/copyright, you should use the predefined short names for licenses; what you call MIT/X11 (BSD Like) is the Expat license. And even though it's more cosmetic than anything, GPL-2.0+ could be replaced by GPL-2+. I'm also not sure your debian/README.source is particularly relevant. First of all, one _should_ care about that copyright in Debian since those files are shipped in the source package (so clauses about distribution of those files certainly apply). If you want to say that the binary package doesn't contain any code from these files, perhaps a Comment in the relevant File paragraph in debian/copyright would be better (as this file is actually installed along with the binary package). I've built your package, but I haven't installed and tested it, so I cannot comment on that.

Bug#459010: Please enable IDN support
Hi. I'd like to up this bug. Some months ago there was launched first cyrillic TLD: .рф (.xn--p1ai). However, it can't be accessed through the bind utils like nslookup: $ whois кц.рф|tail -n+6|head -n5 domain: XN--J1AY.XN--P1AI nserver:ns.cctld.ru. nserver:ns1.cctld.ru. state: REGISTERED, DELEGATED, VERIFIED org:Technical center of Internet JSC $ nslookup кц.рф Server: 192.168.1.2 Address:192.168.1.2#53 ** server can't find кц.рф: NXDOMAIN It's extremely boring when one has to work with cyrillic domains. As far as I know, at least Gentoo has support for such domains (with USE=idn flag), it'll be nice if Debian has it too. Thanks.
