Re: RFS: Various GNUstep packages; looking for a general sponsor

No problem, that's understandable. For the time being we manage, more or less (mostly porting semi-abandoned apps), but the hard times are coming. gnustep-base is almost entirely rewritten, there's a new ObjC runtime, completely new NSSound implementation, hard work on etoile, and almost certainly more porting. Please let me know :) I'd be very happy if you find time to review and sponsor. gnustep-netclasses, pantomime1.2, renaissance, steptalk and agenda.app (all on mentors.d.n) are still pending upload.

Update of package problems on web site
Hi mentors, Is there any means to update the chapter Problems on the debian package home page (http://packages.qa.debian.org/d/dhcp-probe.html) for dhcp-probe. The piuparts problem is for the 1.3.0-4 package's version. The new version 1.3.0-5 fix the problem. Thanks in advance.

Hi Laurent, thanks for caring about your packages! On Montag, 3.

The piuparts problem is for the 1.3.0-4 package's version. The new version 1.3.0-5 fix the problem. piuparts testing of sid was broken due to a problem with kdebindings package depends (#571925). When it occurred on February 28th I couldn't imagine that it would take two month until an upload of kdebebindings would be allowed again (due to transitions), so I didnt notify the PTS maintainers to temp. disable displaying piuparts results for sid. (The results displayed were all of February 28th and thus for some time and for some/most packages still useful.) I have filed #571695 to prevent dak from accepting such broken packages as kdebindings was to the archive. Tonight the piuparts.d.o statistics for sid will be updated for the first time again and sid is being tested by piuparts.d.o again, so your problem should be gone soon. cheers, Holger signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Not who but what… That broken relationship was the outcome of a binNMU, entirely processed by a buildd server. Hence the reason for an automated testing of this type of flaw.
