Re: Consciously blocking packages and development

Dear Norbert,

I stopped reading after reading the subject.
Not sure if you get why, oh, my.
I'll give you a little hint:
always assume the worst,
spread the word,
and for maximum impact, 
put names in subject too.
This really really helps and is super joyful.


cheers,
Holger

Thanks for the helpful comment instead of fixing things.

It would probably more helpful to approach our release team asking for
advice how to proceed with transition than sending this blunt rant into d-d.

 Dear maintainers of debian-edu-doc, all of d-d

 [short explanation for d-d: debian-edu-doc has a serious bug since it
 build-deps on a not existing package. Instead of transiting to the
 new pakcage naming, it keeps the old anme hindering transition)

 I see that the fix was even reverted in the git repository.

 Are you planning to block TeX Live transition for unforeseeable future?
 Might I remind you that the packaging is for Debian/sid to go into
 testing.

 Whatever your ideas and backgrounds concerning Debian Edu are,
 your main obligation is *not*to*block*hinder* other packages.

 Might I also remind you once more, that the target of development is
 *unstable* and *NOT* (!!!) wheezy which is released. Your statement
 that it has to be buildable on wheezy is *simply* plain wrong.

 It is ridiculous that you not even care for *answering* to
 inquiries on a serious bug, although there is a lot of activity
 in the git repository (see below for logs).

 Thanks for your understanding

 Norbert
