Does anybody know the roadmap of getting migration of boost 1.67 to 1.71
Dear all, Please cc me if somebody answers it, Does anybody know when boost 1.67 will be out of the archive and boost 1.71 or later will be the only one in buster cycle. I have been watching 936227 [1] as well as the python2-rm transition slot [2] as well as the python 3.8 transition slot [3] . While we do have 1.71 in testing it's not the default and nor is there an transition slot. [4] There are packages like libtorrent-rasterbar which are being left behind because it requites at least boost 1.69 or later. Looking forward to know more. 1. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=936227 2. https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/python2-rm.html 3. https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/python3.8-default.html 4, https://release.debian.org/transitions/ -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com E493 D466 6D67 59F5 1FD0 930F 870E 9A5B 5869 609C
Could somebody look at quic and see if there is some implementation worth packaging ?
Hi all, I was reading https://blog.cloudflare.com/http-3-from-root-to-tip/ and it seems to be interesting solution to a problem esp. to people traveling. While there are some implementations already done https://github.com/quicwg/base-drafts/wiki/Implementations I wasn't able to find any in Debian (running Debian testing here.) with some bits from sid and experimental and an updated index. I used '$ aptitude search quic' and while I got many false-positives but nothing which helps me. In wnpp, I found only #841848 and saw that the code is unmaintained. The only working repo. from Google is https://quiche.googlesource.com/quiche/ although I guess most Debianities would be interested in the IETF foss implementations. If somebody is interesting in packaging one, feel free to ping me to help with testing :) -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com EB80 462B 08E1 A0DE A73A 2C2F 9F3D C7A4 E1C4 D2D8

I didn't hear from the maintainers anything untoward except that it would have breakage and probably needs fixing at various places. I am at a loss as I'm not a coder but am open to testing any patches and report any breakages if somebody can step up to do the same. I have done that in the past https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=877717 where I was able to connect with the maintainer and we did couple of rounds of testing before he got it right and was able to put it up on experimental. As far as 'not getting immediately my way' the immediacy would have been if I had filed a bug yesterday and bugged today, then your statement would have been valid. But couple of years is not immediate as Axel shared in the bug, if memory serves me right, this was around October/November 2016 thereish. > Best wishes, > > -- > ,''`. > : :' : Chris Lamb > `. `'` la...@debian.org / chris-lamb.co.uk >`- > -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com EB80 462B 08E1 A0DE A73A 2C2F 9F3D C7A4 E1C4 D2D8

what do people feel think of changing the configuration file path from ~/.aptitude/config to ~/.config/aptitude
Dear all, First of all thank you all the fine people who have contributed to packaging and maintaining the whole suit of apt, aptitude, apt-get, dpkg low and high-level variety of tools in Debian for system administration and making good choices. Please CC me if you any thoughts as although I'm subscribed to debian-devel I have opted out of receiving mails due to the high-volume nature of the mailing list. Now about a year back, I had proposed changing paths of the configuration file ~/.aptitude/config to ~/.config/aptitude . The reason is for a change in https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-0.6.html As shared by somebody in https://www.reddit.com/r/debian/comments/8fpr6i/thoughts_on_changing_configuration_files_of/ I don't think I'm alone in this . The obvious breakage would be in any scripts that use aptitude and one way or the other depend or use the configuration path currently using would be broken. There may also be some subtle bugs which may or may not be uncovered or not known which may be exposed by the change perhaps. The other part which perhaps not correctly worded is that aptitude would lose some of its special coolness as it would be in the space where all other packages which use ~/.config are there and it would be easier to find for common folks. The upside if people think would be a good idea is that any perceived or un-perceived fallout of the change, we would have at least a year and a bit more to fix at least in Debian repos. I do know that the Debian aptitude maintainers are conservative when it comes to changes and understandably so. I'm looking for people's thoughts on the above of what people think . I am no coder hence I dunno how much work it would involve and would the changes be self-sustained (till aptitude only) or the changes would also lead to changes in libapt* packages although even then if a transition were to be done it seems both seem to have smaller cycles than some of the transition cycles we have got going through. I did - $ apt-rdepends -r aptitude $ apt-rdepends -r libapt-pkg-dev to have an idea in case if the change I ask meant they need to built from source and transitioned. I am sure there may be lacunae in my theory, but if not asked how would I know ? Look forward to know. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com EB80 462B 08E1 A0DE A73A 2C2F 9F3D C7A4 E1C4 D2D8

why hasn't the debian transition freeze been announced or shared in debin testing info. or bits.debian.org ?
Dear all, I had read https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2018/04/msg6.html so knew when the transition freeze is going to happen. For a blog post/technical article I wanted to share about the transition freeze and went to https://www.debian.org/releases/testing/ as well as https://bits.debian.org/ but neither seems to have that info. Shouldn't be the milestone including perhaps info. on tentative alpha releases be put somewhere or are the dates subject to change ? If the dates are locked down, it would be nicer to be able to share/link to an official page on debian website rather than just an e-mail.

PTS, salsa and knowing if a Debian Maintainer has uploaded a point release.
Dear all, While I read some bits of [1] I haven't read through the whole thread, only some. While the gentleman concerned has shared about getting through the 'new' process, I feel even for users some parts could use more love. Now as I understand it and please share if I'm in the wrong, alioth is going away and salsa is taking over repository creation, branching and maybe at some point also the BTS although then reportbug would have to be retooled to query salsa/gitlab so similar functionality can be provided as it does for bug creation . Now I know that debian has a watch file by which the maintainers of packages come to know of new upstream binary releases as and when they do and at times there maybe a time lag between upstream and getting the binary in unstable. Now if the package maintainer is just a DM, even (s)f he prepares a package, (s)he still needs the ok of a DD to upload/sponsor the package so it fit for distribution i.e. new, experimental or unstable and ftp-mirror and that whole process. Now a user of the package is usually in the dark about this and there is a possibility of upsetting the maintainer even though the person is active on their own team. I looked at the tracker.debian.org BTS page and saw [2] 317711 which exactly talks of this kind of situation and more and this was filed in 2005 so it isn't something which isn't known, just hasn't been acknowledged. This unknowing became apparent to me when the debian-mate were doing packaging for the 1.20.0 release [3] and more recently when I am asking for a point release of qbittorrent [4] . In this case I know that the maintainer is usually pretty active and perhaps uses the package as well. I'm no programmer but just a mere user.

You are right. It probably had to do more with the fact/bias that I came/used Debian much later than I used various rpm distributions. I did see rpm upgrade, downgrade was broken for a long time in a string of various rpm-based distributions which later lead me to Ubuntu and then finally to Debian.

DPL election terms 1 year was Re: X facts about Debian - some fact checking and looking for ideas.
Dear all, Please CC me if somebody puts a reply Another query but of more recent vintage is the idea of having yearly elections for choosing DPL. Now while sadly Ian Murdock is not there but am sure there are more than enough people who know and remember why Ian Murdock felt the need to have yearly elections instead of a 2-5 year term. Was it because of Bruce Perens as shared in https://debian-handbook.info/browse/stable/sect.foundation-documents.html or something else ?
Question about dpkg Re: X facts about Debian - some fact checking and looking for ideas.
Dear all, Please CC me when answering or putting something on the thread. When I started using ubuntu and then later Debian one of the first tools I fell in love with was dpkg. Although nowadays we have multiple tools like apt, aptitude, one of the biggest features of dpkg (which is replicated by almost all tools are and were) upgrade, downgrade and hold. I was reading the wikipedia page about Debian https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debian#cite_ref-FOOTNOTEKrafft200531.E2.80.9332_39-0 and it just cites about dpkg being the essential package manager in 1996. >From what I remember most rpm based distributions during that time had rpm broken which means if you upgraded, you couldn't downgrade and there were lots of times when the system broke due to one issue or the other. I was under the impression that due to rpm brokeness Debian and thereafter dpkg came into being. From the wikipedia page it seems the motivation came from SLS - a derivative of Slackware. Could or does somebody remember what discussions took place when dpkg was being put up as an ideal package manager. It still is, in case of breakage or something goes wrong and the other tools can't fix. I am more interested in what sort of scenario was then. I also read that YUM the fedora package manager borrowed lot of ideas and functionality from dpkg but do not know of any authoritative data to backup, only rumors. Could somebody share some info. on that. Looking forward to know more. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com EB80 462B 08E1 A0DE A73A 2C2F 9F3D C7A4 E1C4 D2D8

PackageConfigUpgrade: Was X facts about Debian - some fact checking and looking for ideas.
Dear Audrey, Please CC me. I read https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2017/08/msg00600.html My mistake, I assumed the package was named lcdproc and not pkg-config-model which the package is all about. Sorry for being a bit incoherent, just not in the best of the health. I had seen the page https://wiki.debian.org/PackageConfigUpgrade and had to read it twice before understanding that the package it talks about is pkg-config.model. I do agree with your assessment and I imagine it might take quite a bit of work. That is why I am against blindly taking maintainer changes and usually cancel updates which have a diff. or need me to take a decision on a later/next day morning where I'll be more fresh and have time to see what is best for my setup. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com EB80 462B 08E1 A0DE A73A 2C2F 9F3D C7A4 E1C4 D2D8

I'm looking both new and old innovations which might be credited to Debian, both in technical terms or in social terms. I would discuss about lcdproc in another e-mail altogether which I just did. I do have loads of questions about Debian history which perhaps might or might not be interesting to people, I just fired the first one just a short while ago - https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2017/08/msg00597.html While some of the queries might seem to be trivial there is lack of authoritative answers to them. @Andrey Rahmatullin I read your answer at https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2017/08/msg00598.html but it doesn't tell me whether this obvious idea was born in Debian or some other GNU/Linux distribution. I do not the early history of Debian so it is possible that at one point it was a single changelog.gz file and then separation of the two changelogs happened along the road or something like that. If somebody knows something it would be nice to know. I had tried to look if early packages could be found but sadly snapshot.debian.org has records from 2k5 only, a simple http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/?year=2000 reveals from when the packages are available. The first Debian stable release was in 1996. https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/project-history/ch-releases.en.html It would be helpful if somebody has one of the 1996 packages snapshots and can share how the changelogs were at that point of time. That might give a bit of reference as to how things were and if there were any changes between them and now. Also the crucial question if whether this idea came in Debian first and then flowed to other distributions or was it was first used in Redhat and then came to Debian would be interesting in itself.

lcdproc was Re: X facts about Debian - some fact checking and looking for ideas.
Dear Dominique, Thank you for sharing about lcdproc as response to my mail. For my 2 cents, I disliked the idea (of lcdproc) immediately as simply applying maintainer changes defeats the very purpose the tool declares or claims to help. For e.g. I know of quite a few people where the modem login page is at a different rather than the universal 192.168.0.1 address.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_network and at times have to write manual /etc/network/interfaces rules in order for internet to work. In India, in practise this happens quite a bit within ethernet based modem/routers, leave alone cable modems. Couple of URL's to tell what I mean (only for the modem router page mind you) . http://www.in.techspot.com/features/tips-tricks/a-list-of-common-default-router-ip-addresses/articleshow/47795297.cms https://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/how-to-find-your-routers-ip-and-admin/ Add to that an ISP's settings that an elderly person might have to set up. https://bpedia.co.in/bsnl-modem-configuration/ - just one ISP's settings. And there are 244 ISP's in India alone according to December 2016 latest list http://www.dot.gov.in/sites/default/files/2016_08_24%20ISP-DS_0.pdf?download=1 In such a scenario a grandma's internet may simply stop working after an upgrade if she blindly accepts a maintainer's changes. It has happened with me in the past even though I know a bit about how things work, let alone a non-technical grandma. What is actually required is a tool which asks questions in a manner in which the grandma or anybody not knowing technology can answer. This I accept is really hard to fix :( Apart from cryptic info. what is also needed to fix is also cryptic errors which is not easy for non-technical people to diagnose what is wrong but that's a different question altogether. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com EB80 462B 08E1 A0DE A73A 2C2F 9F3D C7A4 E1C4 D2D8
history questions about how changelog.gz and changelog.Debian.gz came about.
Dear all, Please CC me if anybody has an answer to below as I'm not subscribed to either of the mailing lists due to the volume both ML generate. I like the way Debian gives various changelogs . For instance for most packages it has - changelog.gz - This is the upstream changelog giving details of the differences between any two versions or at times even point versions. Nowadays usually distilled from $ git shortlog or whatever equivalent command in whatever vcs is being used. changelog.Debian.gz - This talks about changes/improvements done to the packaging. Some of the common changes include changes in the packaging team/uploader, changes to the standards versions, Updating build-depends, any patches which fixes some issue in Debian which has not been accepted by upstream, any changes to either debian/rules or debian/control which might be notable and the uploader feels that they need to be mentioned in the changelog (notable). While I'm pretty happy with the way Debian organizes this thing, was this idea of having separate changelogs to lessen confusion born at Debian or some other GNU/Linux distribution. If so, where and when this idea was born, implemented before Debian ? In short, was Debian the first distribution to use the concept to apply for third-party software. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com EB80 462B 08E1 A0DE A73A 2C2F 9F3D C7A4 E1C4 D2D8
X facts about Debian - some fact checking and looking for ideas.
Dear all, I have been writing some beginner articles in my spare-time to talk/share about Debian and make it more popular. In that direction I have and had been penning few articles at https://itsfoss.com/author/shirish/ As shared before, these are beginner articles and are meant only to bring awareness about Debian to the masses. Just a few days back, Debian turned 24 https://bits.debian.org/2017/08/debian-turns-24.html While I have been thinking about sharing the number of packages, the number of developers, the diversity, the debconf's and where debconfs have been held over the years for starters but all of these I have already shared before. I saw hartmann's article on p.d.o. the other day http://hartmans.livejournal.com/96841.html and I started pondering about some of the lesser unknown innovative ideas of debian which people don't know about. For e.g. the reproducible builds project https://reproducible-builds.org/ seems to have a lot of weight and faith of DD's but is not known at all (or maybe some slightly bit) outside the technical circles. Are there any such unsung technical/non-technical or social innovations that Debian has done that is now known/or lesser known which Debianities should know about and be proud about. Having more Debian fanboys should also increase both participation and contribution to Debian. As far as fact-checking goes, can anybody share about Debian and Kali Linux relationship in bit more detail. AFAIK Raphaël Hertzog is one of the main developers and there has been lot of symbiotic relationship between the two projects but how much both projects have benefited from this partnership has not been codified or told/shared anywhere AFAIK. The only thing I could get is https://docs.kali.org/policy/kali-linux-relationship-with-debian which seems to be pretty dry and short as far as documentation goes. Looking forward to knowing more. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com EB80 462B 08E1 A0DE A73A 2C2F 9F3D C7A4 E1C4 D2D8
what's the latest on the update of moving from alioth to pagure.
Dear all, While I love and loved alioth, I know for probably newish people the interface is somewhat ugly. >From what I did see in https://lwn.net/Articles/724986/ it seems there were lots of pros and cons which were discussed. I was also able to converse with Alexander Wirt and download the survey which wasn't available anymore for public consumption. Can somebody tell/share which forge are the developers looking forward to replace alioth with, pagure or something else . The choices seem to be to do lot of coding if some project/product is taken which is not mature enough or has features that we want and in some cases there is restrictive licensing or/and have two products, one which has foss licensing and the other which has commercial aspects but more features. While there doesn't seem to be any hurry to replace alioth today, the clock is ticking. There is/was some discussion about it in May 2017 https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2017/05/msg00095.html, the thread I'm reading right now. Would be nice though if somebody can share what is/are the possible scenarios. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com EB80 462B 08E1 A0DE A73A 2C2F 9F3D C7A4 E1C4 D2D8

For e.g. take the last/latest announcement done by Cyril Brulebois on 13th June talking about the Stretch RC5 release. In the whole announcement, there is not even a hint to potential testers that this might be the closest to the final released (gold) image. I am presuming/assuming that Cyril was also talking about the live image and not the just the installer improvements. What would be nicer/better perhaps if debian-live does announcements on d-d-a and more importantly hint as when it's going to be nearer to release (final image). We are going to have a release party this week-end in Pune (haven't posted the details yet at https://wiki.debian.org/ReleasePartyStretch , hoping the organizers will do the needful otherwise will do it in a day or two. I/we could also have testing parties before the release as well with a two-week window to the final image . This also gives times to students to see how things work in the real world as well. I can't volunteer for any activities atm (due to health issues) except for taking part in organising testing party in Pune before release and getting more people to file bugs in case they hit problems. I am hopeful we can find a better way/solution to the above. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com EB80 462B 08E1 A0DE A73A 2C2F 9F3D C7A4 E1C4 D2D8

Fwd: debian stretch being released without fixing wpagui and wpasupplicant ?
Please excuse for the delay as I'm not well. incidentally Paul Wise shared on debian-release that anyone can post on debian-devel hence posting so it falls on relevant people to fix or at least warn users of situation with broadcom chips along other bugs in wpagui & wpasupplicant. Details below :- -- Forwarded message -- From: shirish शिरीष <shirisha...@gmail.com> Date: Thu, 15 Jun 2017 22:23:50 +0530 Subject: debian stretch being released without fixing wpagui and wpasupplicant ? To: debian-release <debian-rele...@lists.debian.org> Dear all, I had shared the below at debian-publicity in response to the stretch announcement in which I was given this answer - https://lists.debian.org/debian-publicity/2017/06/msg00012.html Now as I'm not a DD (nor hopeful of becoming a non-uploading DD at least for sometime) hence debian-devel list is closed to me and the only way to get my plea heard is the debian-release team. So without further ado, here it is - I have a query, how is stretch being released without multiple bugs fixed for wpagui and wpasupplicant, I had a look at the stretch announcement notes as well as the serious and grave bugs filed against wpagui and wpasupplicant i.e. b1 - #849122 - With 2.6-2 i dont have the wifi adapter in the (network-manager) list available b2 - #849077 - wpasupplicant: [Regression] Updating wpasupplicant makes not possible to connect to encrypted WiFi b3 - #849875 - broadcom-sta-dkms: Wifi association took too long, failing activation While some of the bugs is related to broadcom only chipsets, other bug could be hit by anyone. So unless there are packages which can take place of wpagui and wpasupplicant and these packages can be removed then please inform users. Or at the very least warn them through stretch announcement as to what they should do otherwise users having broadcom chips would be in for a very nasty surprise when upgrading. Maybe some of the experts could weigh in and make a proper message about the above bugs situation.

would somebody be interested in packaging libcpuid and I-Nex for Debian
Hi all, For quite sometime I have been working with upstream of libcpuid and I-Nex to see if the debian packaging can be improved. See https://github.com/anrieff/libcpuid/issues/47 and https://github.com/eloaders/I-Nex/issues/29 Libcpuid is a dependancy for having I-Nex in Debian. Libcpuid is complete in itself, as it passes lintian tests but as I don't have packaging skill set, hopefully somebody can take that up. An alternative to I-Nex using the same dependancy of libcpuid can be found at https://github.com/X0rg/CPU-X but as can be seen it would need some more dependencies which would need to be packaged while I-Nex just needs libcpuid to be packaged. There is already an RFP for libcpuid at http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=745040 and I-Nex at http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=738266 as well as http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=745049 Even if just libcpuid is there atm, it would be helpful. Upstream in both cases is helpful and as can be seen is also communicative. Hopefully somebody or some team can take this up. I am open to helping in any small way I can. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com EB80 462B 08E1 A0DE A73A 2C2F 9F3D C7A4 E1C4 D2D8

Is the price of a small pack of DVD's really worth making the decision on a DE for debian? Not sure why you'd want to go for third world countries, but let's look at Germany (Aldi is one of the two biggest discounters here): http://www.presseportal.de/pm/112096/2653870/aldi-senkt-preise-fuer-fischprodukte-oel-und-smoothies CD-R Rohlinge (80 Minuten, je 50er Spindel) 5,99 Euro DVD+R Rohlinge (je 20er Spindel)3,99 Euro That is 0.12 EUR per CDR and 0.20 EUR per DVD. DVD readers/writers are cheaper now than CD readers/writers ever were. I don't think it makes sense to ask for the price of one media (which is in Cents), but then assume that the extra cost for a new DVD reader is negligible. Thomas Hi all, As an interested user I come from India and at least here there isn't a difference at all in terms of a CD or DVD media. A single of both costs Rs. 20/- (with the plastic case and all) and going to some of the wholesalers we can get it for Rs. 7/- or Rs. 8/- (in a spindle or a box) . The price might differ between the two by a Rupee or two (it's been quite some time since I went to buy blank DVD's) but the space equation is such that I never buy a CD. I do remember a distinct conversation where I asked him if he ever got orders for CD with the vendor replying that mostly he gets order CD's from villages rather than from city/town itself. Still the ratio was 80 20 in favor of DVD's. I know it's not at all scientific and is probably a strawman argument but that's the way I see it here. Almost nobody I know within my circle talks about CD and I do not just work with the elite in the city. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com EB80 462B 08E1 A0DE A73A 2C2F 9F3D C7A4 E1C4 D2D8 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

No release/transition to libpoppler 0.18 ?
Hi all, A few weeks/months back libpoppler 0.18 got released. The version we have in Debian (running sid) is 0.16.7 which was released in Jun 2011. Please see http://poppler.freedesktop.org/releases.html . Subsequently a wishlist bug was filed. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=67 . If one sees the bug then one can see Mr. Martin Pitt sharing debdiffs for libpoppler when they are doing the same for ubuntu. Now during that time-frame I have been seeing various errors while viewing pdf's which I did suspect were due to the library being old. The latest victims though is the Open Advice e-book. Please see https://github.com/lydiapintscher/Open-Advice/issues/41 I tried to see if the maintainer Monsieur Loic Minier had asked for transition but was unable to find anything of value. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=release.debian.org;dist=unstable I know that in couple of months (or a little more) we would be looking at Freeze. Is there possibility of getting a fresh release in soonish ?

Having a webkit-maintainer team or something like that ?
Hi all, First of all please CC me if somebody feels like answering. I am a mere user/average joe who uses Debian as his OS/distribution choice on a day -to-day basis. One of the major uses I have is accessing Internet through GUI-based web-browsers. I also do have couple of CLI web-browsers just in case my X goes down (hasn't happened off-late but just on the off-chance, links, elinks etc.) Anyways, the thing is I have been playing/using quite a few of the browsers and do find quite a few of the webkit browsers to be promising. I have played with Google Chromium, Epiphany, Arora and xxxterm (the newest one on the block) all of which are based on webkit. While the browsers are promising apart from chromium none of them are stable :( . Arora and xxxterm in particular have old versions of the browsers and xxxterm uses some pretty old webkit version. While I have filed the bugs for the same. Please see 634819 634817 634761 and 634084 for reference if interested. While almost all of them might be doable I think it would perhaps be way way better if there was a team which targetted webkit based browsers as well as any other tools which used webkit which I'm unaware of . Doing a simple search using 'aptitude search webkit' shows quite a few libraries which in turn means there is/might be more packages which use webkit. The idea in essence is simple. Have a webkit-team where all the people who build webkit-based/used packages are housed. The possibility happens then that the webkit-based packages might be in good shape. As I am a user I have no knowledge whether the team-based process has been good to developers or not. http://wiki.debian.org/Teams Looking forward to feedback and perspectives . -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com 065C 6D79 A68C E7EA 52B3 8D70 950D 53FB 729A 8B17 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

network-manager,ifupdown and bittorrent Was Re: network-manager as default? No!
Hi all, I read the whole thread about network manager starting from http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2011/04/msg00051.html I am an average joe/user who has been a Ubuntu user for few years while migrating to Debian during the Squeeze freeze cycle (about 6 months back) . The system I run on is a desktop which is connects via ethernet to a D-Link Modem/Router to net. While reading the thread I saw that there is something called ifupdown which is managing stuff for me. I get a dynamic IP assigned each time I log in and the connection is an ADSL connection which is pretty much one of the main ways to connect to Internet in India, although with laptops wireless is happening. Ok, so in the interest of understanding of what's or how things are happening, I first decided to see the contents of the package ifupdown $ dpkg -L ifupdown and then see the manpage of ifup and other things. Then tried to run the various things as put up in the manpage :- $ /etc/network/run/ifstate bash: /etc/network/run/ifstate: Permission denied It took me quite some time and trying all different things before I came to :- $ cat /etc/network/run/ifstate lo=lo and $ /usr/bin/perl /usr/share/doc/ifupdown/contrib/ifstate-check lo: UP,CONFIGURED neither of which tells me much about how things are configured (something is hidden somewhere) . Now as a user both the info. I have got doesn't tell me anything. Its only after much playing around that I come to known ifconfig which actually tells me what I need to know :- ~$ ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr some:alphanumeric:address inet addr:ipv4.add.re.ss Bcast:ipv4.add.re.ss Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: another.alphanumeric.address Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:49733 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:48783 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:55630643 (53.0 MiB) TX bytes:5838151 (5.5 MiB) Interrupt:42 Base address:0xsomething loLink encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:445 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:445 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:33957 (33.1 KiB) TX bytes:33957 (33.1 KiB) Even though I am/was able to get this, from the past 6 months or so I have not been able to run bittorrent on this and I do not know the reason for this. Its a complete mystery to me. I am able to update/upgrade the system, run .jigdo to update the weekly ISO DVD's and do all kinds of git and svn stuff but unable to get bittorrent. Even for the wireless thing, atleast in my country there are no longer many open WiFi hotspots especially after the 2008 Mumbai attacks as the terrorists used the wifi to publicize their attack on net. Why bittorrent is not working still is a mystery to me, any help in that regard would be appreciated. The reason I share all of this is as a user I don't really know how my system is configured and nor does ifupdown make it any way easy for me to understand how its done. Atleast to me it seems cryptic in the way its configures stuff and the way the manpages are written. They are not written for the average joe to make head or tail of. This is not for or against network-manager, this is just a user's experience. As can be seen above, I'm no guru, in fact far far away from that. Just my 2 paise. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com 065C 6D79 A68C E7EA 52B3 8D70 950D 53FB 729A 8B17 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Gmailfs front-end, gnome-mount documentation
Hi all, First some background info. Gmailfs is basically using your gmail account as a filesystem. I've been trying to use gmailfs on ubuntu gutsy for the past 12 hrs. without success. Please note that I'm cross-posting this both as the package is both in debian as well as ubuntu. As Sebastian Delafond is the official maintainer of the package also ccing him. First the package in question :- http://packages.debian.org/unstable/utils/gmailfs in debian https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gmailfs in ubuntu Homepage of Gmail filesystem :- http://richard.jones.name/google-hacks/gmail-filesystem/gmail-filesystem-implementation.html First of all the frustrations I have had with gmailfs can be seen here https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gmailfs/+question/11592/ Of course the answer may be some option or something which I've not tried to do hopefully will be known/sorted out in short period of time, but the larger picture is I'm not happy with the current scenario as it takes the user to know quite a bit of knowledge of how mount works stuff. I lack the skill to implement whatever I'm going to outline but if somebody has the drive or the motivation to apply it please do so. I ran this idea by the upstream author while he thinks its a good idea but would rather if somebody else made that gtk+ dialog boxes. Now the actual thing, right now if one installs gmailfs one needs to do a man mount.gmailfs, read the instructions, see if he is able to make sense know where /etc/fstab is put the stuff there as it is hope it works or do the same in the CLI hope that works. Now for a second please assume I know nothing about mount points and what they are. I just know that there are some apps. which I can install from synaptic they work out of box. Gmailfs doesn't . What could make it better? Perhaps you (somebody from the community) could make a gtk front-end dialog box so after installing gmailfs invokes mount.gmailfs which in turn invokes the gtk front-end and says it needs superuser or root privileges, then the dialog-box gives example of what a mount point is etc and a place to fill in, username password whatever else is required. It would make gmailfs more usable. Have no idea either way if and any security implications are as of now and after having the dialog box. Another tool which people use to do mount is gnome-mount atleast on the GNOME/GTK side, the description for gnome-mount is Description :- wrapper for (un)mounting and ejecting storage devices Looking for comments, suggestions possibly somebody coming forward doing an actual implementation of it. If this has been discussed before or if this is not the proper mailing list (as the package is something which is the universe repository) please feel free to guide me the same. -- Shirish Agarwal This email is licensed under http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ 065C 6D79 A68C E7EA 52B3 8D70 950D 53FB 729A 8B17 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: Thoughts about the bug tracking stats
Hi all, I am a ubuntu user. It has been an quite an interesting discussion about reportbug as well as reportbug-ng. I too use reportbug (more than reportbug-ng) when I need to report some bug which might be upstream as I believe there are quite few packages which ubuntu syncs from debian. Now reportbug is cool in the point that I do get the dependency package info. with version a single line description of the dependancy package . Something akin to what dpkg -l package-name does but automated. Now I also have issues with it needing some kind of mail client, if it used some way to transport the messages without going through the mail client/server it would be so much easier. At this point, I use webmail have to make a point to remember that the subject line should have the packagename otherwise it doesn't go to the right place. [OT] I am somewhat surprised that nobody thought it worthy or useful to mention apport. This is the ubuntu bug-reporting tool. A wiki telling all about it. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomatedProblemReports as well as http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/gnome/apport-gtk . Ok now what apport does which reportbug or report-bug ng doesn't is it sends the bug-report without resorting to mail client/server so that much less of a steep curve. The issue/hassle here though lies in creating a launchpad account although its similar process as signing up for webmail or having an account to any site. Also launchpad is not just a BTS but also handles translations, repository functions etc. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaunchPad as well as https://launchpad.net/ubuntu [/OT] The reason for bringing the apport/launchpad reporting infrastructure is not to have a replica but if you guys could find a middle way. Atleast for some of the users it would be one less hassle if it could be used to work with the browser itself. I dunno how you guys feel but for me its always better to look at other tools also if possible if some of the feature-set can be replicated/used for your bug-reporting tool/package. [OT] Lastly, I do know that you guys have stats regarding package installations as to how many people installed a package but obviously it doesn't give the whole idea. For e.g. I have evolution installed (by default) but haven't felt the need to configure it or use it. So at some point in future could you guys think of not just using the installation as a benchmark for popularity of a tool but have some kind of usage pattern associated to benchmark real-life circumstances. Do understand there are privacy issues here (apart from basic ones) which I might not be aware of hence maybe something to have a look at. [/OT] Sorry for the longish mail.

Really? You need additional knowledge to interpret the program output and you call this less confusing? I doubt that. Yes. I don't like computers that are designed for people who don't know anything. I find such beasts confusing and obnoxious. Resp. Sir, It is precisely for people who don't know anything that comps. do sell, components sell you have cheap prices. Again who decides who knows anything or nothing at all? I'm sure it'll be pretty thin list if we go by that. Also is there something in the debian manifesto which says that people is only for people who do computer science only? snipped But they ARE broken. Have been for years. If you make a simple analogy from that statement to other dings then you need to declare much more people as stupid Don Quixotes, like those who work on LFS (you know, 2GiB is ought to be enough for everyone), or on IPv6, or on Unicode, etc.etc. I seem to be failing to folow your logic again... Anyways, you know we've all switched to IPv6 already, right? We no longer need 6bone because all our ISPs give us IPv6 addresss already. See http://www.6bone.net/ if you don't believe me. Grr. I don't know whether that last sentence was mentioned in seriousness or in jest. We in India, are on ipv4 still the transition is going to take another couple of years till one of the big ISP's does the change. I know this for a fact as there were press releases made by BSNL (Indian ISP) to that effect. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_broadband_users But does it mean that we are against IPv6, no all we all want is it should be pretty easy so that ipv4 can work its documented how it is to be done. If similarly, there was an alternative solution for the same in the KB/KiB thing it would make easier for me as a user to decide. How about using these prefixes to unambiguously refer to powers of 10? kd kidi10^3 Like in kidigram and medameter? What comes next, midroutopicans? Yes, my intention was to make a silly set of prefixes whose only purpose Doesn't look so for me. It looks more like a bad attempt to miscredit brave people. Yes, all those brave people who risked their lives to, uhh, very bravely do, uhh, something, umm, what people am I trying to miscredit? I think maybe I need to figure this out before I can figure out what brave things they were doing. Oh, or was I trying to miscredit all brave people? I'm sorry, but I don't think I was trying to miscredit anyone. I simply don't want people fixing a part of my system that works exactly how I want it, just because it is confusing to non computer people. There you go again, who are non-computer people. I would surely be interested to known your definition of non-computer people how they should be discriminated against, atleast that is what appears to me.

Urgh, these things are ugly and an abomination. We should avoid them. I'd really like to hear some real arguments against SI prefixes, besides being ugly or funny to pronounce or just because it has always been like that. Advantages of using SI prefixes has been mentioned in this thread. Please tell me the disadvantages so there can actually be a constructive discussion. User Confusion. Most users do not know what a tebibyte is, and they do not care. They know that a terabyte is about a million million bytes, and that is sufficient. Since you're rounding anyway, the loss of accuracy between about a million million bytes and just over a million million bytes is not significant. Certainly not at the expense at having to teach users another new unit. Hard drives are bought in gigabytes, memory is bought in gigabytes, etc. Quoting the same figures with a different unit in the operating system is pedantry for its own sake. Users have already learnt that the term gigabyte is approximate. Wrong most users think of gigabyte as absolute rather than approximation. If that was not the case then http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_prefix#Legal_disputes wouldn't have happened. Most of the users when they burn a CD/DVD use the approximation GB to say a burn a movie DVD. Most of the DVD media is marketted as 4.78 GB while its 4.38 GiB hence when they download a movie (legally downloaded or otherwise) or do mixed mode stuff. Also I don't know many users who go down to byte-size level see how much space is remaining. I do get support calls over this quite a bit. Thinking that users know its an approximate IMHO is an oversimplification. Introducing new units has only added confusion, rather than removed it. The same could be said of relatively newer concepts like free software, open source, copyright, creative licenses, .PNG, .SVG all the newer stuff that the web keeps pouring in. Micro formats anyone. That doesn't mean we stop learning, it just means we adjust ourselves to the new reality. Before the new units, we all knew that 1GB was an approximate figure and likely to be (for bytes) based on a power of 2. Now we have figures quoted in GB and GiB, some of which are power of 10, some of which are power of 2. Some figures quoted in GiB are wrong, and should be in GB; likewise some in GB should be GiB. And we still have many figures in both GB and GiB which are neither of the two! Renaming the 1.44MB floppy helps in neither case; it is neither 1.44MB or 1.44MiB. One could name it the 1.4MB or 1.47MiB floppy and confuse everyone into thinking it's a different thing, of course. Or maybe it should be the 1,440KB floppy, or the 1,475KiB floppy? Neither of these help the situation. Right, although it doesn't completely solve the situation it does take things to a nearer perfect answer. I do see that it would take time for us to make that change but its a better change IMO. Without the binary unit to consider, when we quote a drive as 1TB, we know that it has *at least* 1,000,000,000,000 bytes available. Depending on the drive, it may have anywhere between this and 1,099,511,627,776 bytes available. It's actually more likely to have something strange like 1,024,000,000,000 available. (And none of this takes into account partitioning and filesystem overhead!) I see no problem with this 1TB quote being approximate. It's rounded anyway. If you really want to know how many bytes are available, you can use this great unit called the byte which is accurate and not subject to change[0]. Do you think most common users are ever going to go down to byte size level to see if things fit or not. It would actually be a good test for Novell . I believe they do desktop tests for HIG see how users actually do stuff. Not techies but day-to-day the Johns Janes.

Re: Using standardized SI prefixes
Hi all, Somebody asked about real world experiences. Ever tried fitting mixed multiple data to a CD or DVD have to see in byte-size if things are good or not. Ever downloaded an .iso only to find later it doesn't fit the CD/DVD by some MiB . How much overburning can be done by a CD/DVD burning application . I do lot of burning of content it really pisses me off. If software guys pick up the trend then only there is hope. Otherwise do the reverse make it so that 1000 bytes is a KB not 1024 something has to be changed. -- Shirish Agarwal This email is licensed under http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ 065C 6D79 A68C E7EA 52B3 8D70 950D 53FB 729A 8B17 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

[OT] howto file bugs in debian bug-tracker
Hi all, Can somebody tell me how I can file upstream debian bugs from bug tracker. Case in point https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/deluge-torrent/+bug/119995 . I know this is not the place, so let's take this off-list perhaps or point to a better resource/mailing list where I can direct that.

Using standardized SI prefixes
Hi all, Please look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_prefix . I put a bug up for it https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/119822 Aaron helpfully said it needs more discussion. I have had great support from libtorrent code.rasterbar.com as well as the guys at deluge http://dev.deluge-torrent.org . The difference is simply astonishing to put aside if let's say a download or an .ISO says 700 MB (700*1000) it becomes 683.59375 MiB (70/1024) . Please lemme know what you guys think about it ? It isn't just ubuntu or debian but this needs to be done everywhere. Have something accurate. -- Shirish Agarwal This email is licensed under http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ 065C 6D79 A68C E7EA 52B3 8D70 950D 53FB 729A 8B17 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

update htop to 0.65
Hi all, Forgive if this is not the correct list to post to. I like htop the latest version of htop is 0.6.5 http://htop.sourceforge.net/index.php?page=downloads while the package even in unstable is at 0.6.3 http://packages.debian.org/unstable/utils/htop . Can it be updated/upgraded?
