We're preparing upload of new (upstream) version to unstable. Once it hits testing we'll request a stable update for squeeze.

Bug#598957: NMU of mdadm for squeeze-proposed-upates
Hello to the release team! I would like to upload a fix for #598957 in Squeeze. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=598957 It seems that there is a consensus for this fix: -echo $PROGNAME: I: selecting $ionice I/O scheduling class for resync of $array. 2 +[ $quiet -lt 1 ] echo $PROGNAME: I: selecting $ionice I/O scheduling class for resync of $array. 2 I understand that this isn't a RC bug per say. But when you run a large server farm, receiving a mail from each server every month can really be annoying. So there must be a huge number of server administrators annoyed every 1st Sunday of the month by this issue since they upgraded to Squeeze. Martin f. Krafft (Madduck) said that he wouldn't be available to manage the issue (as he is moving home), and already expressed his agreement for the NMU. Would the release team accept that I do this tiny modification, and NMU it to squeeze-proposed-updates, to avoid the useless warning annoyance sent by email every month? Looking forward to have your opinion, Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo) P.S: I do not intend to fix the issue about the auto-read-only thing with this upload, unless others make a clear point that it should be, and that there's a *consensus* about it. Also, it doesn't affect everyone, while the one scheduling class thing does. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
