Will be released End of September already. So the release is "just" ~ one month to go, it's beta and the first rc is ~ 2 weeks away so it's (hopefully) not that bug in development anymore. I wondered about this upload, and don't necessarily like it either - but I can see the point in getting it tested early. And be realistic: real-life testing doesn't happen in experimental but unstable and if it gets released and uploaded to unstable it might be too late and will cause more disruption. > It is important to note that this made all the extensions available for > the current stable version of Gnome Shell to not > work with SID. So be it. This is sid. (If it breaks Debian-packaged extensions, it should add Breaks or so, they need to be updated anyway if 2.22 was released and uploaded.) Regards, Rene
Bug#836207: [gnome-shell] Version 3.21.91 is a development version. It should never been uploaded to the repositories.
Package: gnome-shell Version: 3.21.91-1 Severity: grave --- Please enter the report below this line. --- Yesterday, my SID system updated gnome shell to version 3.21.91, which is a development version and, thus, unstable and incomplete by definition. Why was it allowed to be uploaded to the repositories? It is supposed that SID is where packages are added for being tested before being moved to testing... If a development version would never be included in an stable distro, why was it uploaded to SID? It is important to note that this made all the extensions available for the current stable version of Gnome Shell to not work with SID. --- System information. --- Architecture: amd64 Kernel: Linux 4.6.0-1-amd64 Debian Release: stretch/sid 500 unstable ftp.debian.org 500 stable dl.google.com 500 sid linux.dropbox.com --- Package information. --- Depends (Version) | Installed =-+-== gir1.2-glib-2.0 (>= 1.45.3) | 1.49.1-2 gir1.2-gtk-3.0 (>= 3.16) | 3.21.5-1 gir1.2-mutter-3.0 (>= 3.21.90) | 3.21.91-1 gir1.2-networkmanager-1.0 | 1.4.0-3 gir1.2-soup-2.4 (>= 2.40.1) | 2.54.1-1 gir1.2-telepathyglib-0.12 | 0.24.1-1.1 dconf-gsettings-backend | 0.26.0-1 OR gsettings-backend | libatk-bridge2.0-0 (>= 2.5.3) | 2.20.1-4 libatk1.0-0 (>= 1.12.4) | 2.20.0-1 libc6 (>= 2.14) | libcairo2 (>= 1.10.0) | libcanberra-gtk3-0 (>= 0.25) | libcanberra0 (>= 0.2) | libcroco3 (>= 0.6.2) | libdbus-glib-1-2 (>= 0.78) | libecal-1.2-19 (>= 3.17) | libedataserver-1.2-21 (>= 3.17) | libgcr-base-3-1 (>= 3.8.0) | libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 (>= 2.22.0) | libgirepository-1.0-1 (>= 0.9.2) | libgjs0-libmozjs-24-0 | libgjs0e (>= 1.45.4) | libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.45.3) | libgstreamer1.0-0 (>= 1.4.0) | libgtk-3-0 (>= 3.16) | libical2 (>= 2.0.0) | libicu57 (>= 57.1-1~) | libjson-glib-1.0-0 (>= 0.13.2) | libmozjs-24-0 | libmutter0i (>= 3.21.0) | libnm-glib4 (>= 0.8.998) | libnm-util2 (>= 0.8.998) | libpango-1.0-0 (>= 1.14.0) | libpangocairo-1.0-0 (>= 1.14.0) | libpolkit-agent-1-0 (>= 0.99) | libpolkit-gobject-1-0 (>= 0.94) | libpulse-mainloop-glib0 (>= 0.99.1) | libpulse0 (>= 0.99.1) | libsecret-1-0 (>= 0.7) | libstartup-notification0 (>= 0.11) | libsystemd0 | libtelepathy-glib0 (>= 0.17.5) | libwayland-client0 (>= 1.0.2) | libx11-6 | libxfixes3 | evolution-data-server (>= 3.17.2) | gir1.2-gdm-1.0 (>= 3.18.2) | gir1.2-accountsservice-1.0 | gir1.2-atspi-2.0 (>= 2.9.91) | gir1.2-caribou-1.0 (>= 0.4.8) | gir1.2-freedesktop | gir1.2-gdesktopenums-3.0 (>= 3.12) | gir1.2-gcr-3 (>= 3.7.5) | gir1.2-gnomebluetooth-1.0 (>= 3.12.0) | gir1.2-gnomedesktop-3.0 (>= 3.12.0) | gir1.2-gweather-3.0 | gir1.2-ibus-1.0 (>= 1.5.2) | gir1.2-nmgtk-1.0 (>= 0.9.8) | gir1.2-pango-1.0 | gir1.2-polkit-1.0 | gir1.2-telepathylogger-0.2 (>= 0.8.0) | gir1.2-upowerglib-1.0 (>= 0.99) | gjs (>= 1.39.0) | gnome-settings-daemon (>= 3.16.0) | gnome-shell-common (= 3.21.91-1) | gnome-backgrounds (>= 3.13.90) | gsettings-desktop-schemas (>= 3.21.3) | mutter (>= 3.21.90) | python3 | telepathy-mission-control-5 | Recommends (Version) | Installed ===-+-= gkbd-capplet | 3.6.0-1 gnome-contacts | gnome-control-center | 1:3.20.1-2 gnome-themes-standard-data | 3.20.2-3 gnome-user-guide | 3.20.2-1 gdm3 (>= 3.10.0.1-3~) | 3.20.1-1 iio-sensor-proxy | 1.1-1 unzip | 6.0-20 Package's Suggests field is empty. -- Nos leemos RASTER(Linux user #228804) ras...@rastersoft.com http://www.rastersoft.com
