Patrick and I talked about this a bit more and I found a solution which makes everyone happy I hope: we remove the OSS backend completly and use the libao plugin and because of this use OSS or ALSA or whatever is selected by libao. This removes all depends on the actual soundsystem completly from the package.

According to doko sparc32 code generation is unmaintained upstream, and he doesn't want to step up to maintain it any longer. Well, that is no less of a problem than it was before, no? I don't recall seeing many sparc32 compiler bugs over the last few years. I do recall some sparc kernel bugs, which were incidentally all eventually fixed. Furthermore I found the following thread dated back to 2007: http://lists.debian.org/debian-sparc/2007/07/msg00049.html I think the only result from this was that a sparc32 kernel and installer was dropped, as Jurij said there. That was during a time when that kernel was particularly problematic, which has actually improved a lot upstream and they had no problem keeping it - though it probably still lags a bit behind because there's maybe one person regularly testing, the rest are on-and-off, but it remains in the tree and is covered by all the generic changes and testing. Few people have been affected by this, because the remaining non-64-bit machines (which can't run the 64-bit kernel) are both fairly scarce and very slow by today's standards. OTOH, if we missed the squeeze release altogether, all users of the port would be affected. Still not a whole lot of people, but at the same time, it's a huge chunk of the users of Linux on SPARC in general. We shouldn't do this for reasons that are based on what boils down to a rational fear of bit rot. It it certain that the problem can cause bugs over the years. But at this rate, a dozen bugs is pretty much a drop in the sea. So far nobody stepped up to provide us with a working sparc64 port. I know that aurel32 did some work on zee.debian.org, but was hurt by bad RAM in that box (AFAIR). That sounds like a reason why a sparc64-only port would be unreleasable, which bodes well for the actually working mixed port :) What we are currently struggling with are build failures that happen on one class of the builders, while not happening on the other, and IIRC this is happening vice-versa. Hopefully others can fill in the gaps I left here. Are these failures connected to the compiler issue, or is it just a manpower issue in tracking it down? -- 2.

There are quick a few changes in the upstream repository and the changelog just says see the hg repo doesn't help identify whether any are particularly important when one doesn't know the software. they fix all sorts of tiny things and glitches, i'll let mathias (upstream and co-maintainer) comment on that in more detail. Generally the Tryton maintainers are very strict with the backport of fixes from trunk into release branches. Which means, that only 'real' bug fixes are merged into a release branch, but never features. Additionally new releases are only done on really important and well tested fixes. So generally it is always in the interest of the user to run the latest release. For the special case of release 1.6.1: Release 1.6 contained some heavy rewrites and cleanup of version 1.4. Unfortunately there was lost just one really important functionality of 1.4 in 1.6.0, which made unluckily this release almost unusable for some special implementations relying on this functionality. This essential fix (besides important others) is included in 1.6.1 and should be contained by all means in the next Debian stable release. Summary: Version 1.6.1 contains essential fixes, that should be included any case in squeeze. Sorry for pinging again, since I don't see any reaction so far and just would not want to miss anything to have tryton client and server unblocked for squeeze.

Re: RFC: SQLite3 in Squeeze
On Tue, Aug 17, 2010 at 07:49:49PM +0200, Laszlo Boszormenyi wrote: Hi Release Team, There's a problem with SQLite3 3.7.0 in Squeeze. The version in testing (3.6.23.1-4) was suitable to release. Next major upstream version (3.7.0) was released, which was uploaded to unstable. Then freeze happened. The latest release came with problems, like slow song change with Banshee (reported as #591298 [1]). In that bugreport I noted that v3.7.0 has a database corruption issue as well and I'm waiting for v3.7.0.1 to be released. Then I had to travel for some days. The bad thing is, that Iain Lane was so disappointed with the slow Banshee song change that he prepared an NMU of SQLite3 with a backported fix of that slowness. Julien Cristau uploaded his NMU, with high urgency. Both of them ignored the fact that there's an unfixed database corruption issue in that NMU. The bad thing is, somehow 3.7.0-1.1 migrated to Squeeze, even if it was not affected by this bug. As 3.7.0.1 was released (fixing an other performance regression and the potential database corruption), I have uploaded it to unstable and it's ready to migrate. The problem is, the performance regression hit by Banshee is still present. While it would be good to have 3.7.0.1-1 in testing, it's still not suitable to release because of the latter problem. What should I do? I don't have package version 3.6.23.1-4 anymore and I don't know when this bug will be fixed or if it will be easily backportable. FWIW, the corruption may also happen with iceweasel. Mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-release-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Re: Freeze for LLVM packages
2010/8/18, Adam D. Barratt a...@adam-barratt.org.uk: As I said, my primary concern from a release point of view is whether there are good reasons for doing the changes now, rather than waiting for squeeze+1. As Matthias said, the reason is to get the good llvm version installed when users type apt-get install llvm, which is 2.7. Version 2.6 is just there for the two packages that still need it for now, and will be removed for squeeze+1. Very most users want to use 2.7 rather that 2.6. It would just make their life easier by just asking them to install llvm-dev and use unversioned binaries. Has the current configuration confused people that you know of or is this more of a of course people want to use the latest version by default? Both. This package still needs a bit of work, but not on this side. Ah, I'd assumed everything was basically ready to go and just waiting to be uploaded. How much is a bit of work? One issue I did notice is that llvm-defaults is missing a build-dependency on m4 (having tried building it in a clean(ish) chroot). The source package was given in its current state, so not ready to be uploaded yet. The bit of work remaining is quite small (partly done locally already). I will probably give you the finished version later today. Thanks, Arthur. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-release-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Dear release team, please unblock libvirt 0.7.3-1. The version should have hit the archive before the freeze got delayed by a couple of days.

From a very quick look at the diff, there's at least libvirt-0.8.3/src/esx/esx_driver.c| 1192 +- libvirt-0.8.3/src/esx/esx_vi.c| 911 + libvirt-0.8.3/src/util/storage_file.c | 762 - which would need more careful review. We don't have the ESX driver currently enabled in libvirt. The file backend hat quiet some changes to fix the security issues. That's why it's actually safer to pull in this version instead of backporting for 0.8.2 given that 0.8.3 is what we aimed for in Squeeze anyway.

Re: Freeze for LLVM packages
On Wed, August 18, 2010 11:50, Arthur Loiret wrote: 2010/8/18, Adam D. Barratt a...@adam-barratt.org.uk: As I said, my primary concern from a release point of view is whether there are good reasons for doing the changes now, rather than waiting for squeeze+1. As Matthias said, the reason is to get the good llvm version installed when users type apt-get install llvm, which is 2.7. Version 2.6 is just there for the two packages that still need it for now, and will be removed for squeeze+1. Matthias also mentioned trying to remove 2.6 for Squeeze, which is rather less likely. So far as I can see, the current split of 2.6 vs 2.7 using packages in the archive is 2.6 - ldc, llvm-py, llvm-gcc-4.2 (i386) 2.7 - clang, haskell-llvm, llvm-gcc-4.2 (amd64), openjdk-6 Which of those packages will not work with 2.7? Of the remainder which, if any, are you proposing changing the {build-,}dependencies of? Any depending on llvm (= 2.6) which will also work with 2.7 shouldn't require changes and there's certainly an argument that for squeeze uploads which simply changed the llvm-2.7 dependencies to be llvm (= 2.7) wouldn't qualify for exceptions on their own. llvm-gcc-4.2 also has a new upstream version in unstable which was uploaded after the freeze and does not have an exception (and ftbfs on i386), which doesn't help.

Unless things FTBFS on some arches and not others, and thus cause delays in the freeze. If port maintainers do want to enable gcc-4.5 on a port, they should make sure that no regressions are introduced by building the runtime libraries from 4.5 and ensure that possible regressions are fixed. This is the bit that worries me. Although it is optional, it can (and IMO will probably) be used by at least some things. This could lead to odd bugs. If there's a problem in GCC 4.5 that isn't in 4.4, and it comes to a security upload, there could be a mismatch between the requirements. sorry, I don't understand this reasoning and the implications for security uploads. If a package is explicitely built with 4.5, it will be built with 4.5 for security uploads too. Ok, assume that gcc4.5 has some major bug that causes FTBFSes in certain circumstances, and a package has been modified in a way to take advantage of gcc4.5, specifically so it won't build with 4.4; then a problem would occur. Do you have details as to the (previously mentioned) unit/regression tests? not besides the test results included in the packages prepared for upload. Is there anything more you would expect? You mentioned: - the upload will build several runtime libraries from the 4.5 sources. Regression tests did pass for the runtime libs built from the 4.5 sources and for 4.4 using the runtime libs from 4.5.

If port maintainers do want to enable gcc-4.5 on a port, they should make sure that no regressions are introduced by building the runtime libraries from 4.5 and ensure that possible regressions are fixed. This is the bit that worries me. Although it is optional, it can (and IMO will probably) be used by at least some things. This could lead to odd bugs. If there's a problem in GCC 4.5 that isn't in 4.4, and it comes to a security upload, there could be a mismatch between the requirements. sorry, I don't understand this reasoning and the implications for security uploads. If a package is explicitely built with 4.5, it will be built with 4.5 for security uploads too. Ok, assume that gcc4.5 has some major bug that causes FTBFSes in certain circumstances, and a package has been modified in a way to take advantage of gcc4.5, specifically so it won't build with 4.4; then a problem would occur. Then reverting back to build it with 4.4 should be possible. Again, I don't see this as an argument against it. Do you have details as to the (previously mentioned) unit/regression tests? not besides the test results included in the packages prepared for upload. Is there anything more you would expect? You mentioned: - the upload will build several runtime libraries from the 4.5 sources. Regression tests did pass for the runtime libs built from the 4.5 sources and for 4.4 using the runtime libs from 4.5. This didn't answer my question. Is there anything more you would expect? At the moment, I'm still not sure on the actual advantage of introducing this new package at this stage in the release cycle. well, currently I don't see any arguments against the upload, just some feelings that could apply to any package.

unblock barnowl 1.6.2-1 for #593299
Hi. I'm asking for an unblock of barnowl in order to fix a security problem. Under certain error conditions an attacker or malicious IM server could potentially exploit the vulnerabilities and run arbitrary code. Note that this unblock would move testing from 1.5.1 to 1.6.2. I came very close to uploading 1.6.2 during debconf but wanted to do some additional testing, then the freeze was announced. However after thinking about this particular bug, I do think that squeeze would be far better with these changes than without. I can backport the change, but especially given that it is early in the freeze and that there are a lot of very useful bug fixes between 1.5.1 and 1.6.2, I believe squeeze would be a better release if you unblocked the new upstream. If you do unblock, I'd prefer that you up the urgency of the upload I made yesterday rather than waiting 10 days; I should have uploaded with higher urgency.

synaptic and squeeze
Hi Michael, synaptic 0.70~pre1 was uploaded to unstable a few days ago, do you consider it a candidate for squeeze? I'm asking because it's one of the reverse dependencies of libapt-pkg and xapian which both have scheduled ABI bumps in the near future, so having synaptic out of the way would be nice. The ~pre1 version seems to imply you have more changes lined up, and with squeeze now frozen it'd be nice to know where things stand. Thanks! Julien signature.asc Description: Digital signature

So, basically, the sources in the archive are not ready and you want to push as much as possible changes from upstream's trunk. IMO, roaraudio is not in a releasable state and didn't get much testing… it's only less than one month old (in the archive) and doesn't have any reverse dependency. Maybe it's worth considering whether we really want to include the package in a stable release at the moment. yes we had a bad release. We figured that out and fixed things. As we do not patches in the debian package we tryed to fix everything upstream. we also got fixes from others so we fixed some more things. for example the ALSA plugin which is not build by the debian package nor the upstream package. I also said that we can offer a version which is free of those changes. However I think as they are minor the effect of a 'strange' version (with backported bugfixes) may be more confusing. If you require us to do so, we will even if we do not like that. About the usage by other packages: As you noted the package is new in debian but the project is much older (started June 2008). Some packages did not yet updated the depends, for example: #589756 (Audacious), #589760 (libao), #591636 (ices2). Those are bugs I reported because I know the upstream version has working support. There may be more reports and some devels haven't yet noticed the presense of RoarAudio in Debian for sure. Audacious for example includes very good support in 2.4, but Debian still has 2.3 (devel version) because they missed the freeze themselfs. Maybe they will do a unblock request or maybe they will do a backport or something later. Don't know. Backporting of RoarAudio would be on the list again. Also there is something I would like to call 'implecide depends' indroduced by roarify. roarify (part of libroar-compat0) is a tool to make other software use RoarAudio without them needing native support. roarify is not yet another OSS emulation but much more. It also emulates other sound systems and provides emulation for binarys to help with shell scripts and such using binarys of some sound system. It currently includes emulation for: OSS, DMX4Linux, PulseAudio (parts), EsounD, aRtsc, sndio (handled more directly by the Debian package), YIFF Sound System and RSound (not part of debian yet). Also some tools for NAS are handled. If you do a rdepends for them I'm sure you get a no that short list of tools what can use RA. The daemon it self (roard as part of the roaraudio binary package) also includes protocol emulation. Basicly the same applys for it, too. Another thing why I think the package should be in is OpenBSD's sndio API. libroarsndio (part of libroar-compat0) is developed to emulate it in a very nice way. We are in close contact with OpenBSD's upstream devels to ensure it is a good emulation. It is very helpfull to have it around for porters so they can test sndio support without needing a OpenBSD box around. (I hope it's OK to answer to the other mail as part of this as this ha snothing to do with µRoarD package) The popcon is 2 o_O It's very simple: first of all the package is not very old. Currently most uses use a version compiled from source. You know yourself people do not upgrade as often as they should. also It's not yet in stable nor oldstable so the user basis is limited anyway. And as long as I'm not sure about if this package is inlcuded and in which state I can't realy recommend users to upgrade to the RA package and tell them later they need to upgrade again because it is removed. So what to do? Option 0: let the upstream which is (nearly) bugfix-only release in Option 1: backport bugfixes and let such a package in in this case I need to know which parts exactly you dislike so we know what to backport. Option 2: remove the package. We do dislike this most (I'm sure every package maintainer would ;) See above why we think this is bad to do. -- Philipp. (Rah of PH2) signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Hi, Squeeze currently has version 1.0.4-1 of the Cherokee webserver. This version suffers from a series of SSL/TLS problems (worst of all is that it just won't work with Firefox). I am uploading version 1.0.8-1 - Upstream's release notices since 1.0.4 include: 1.0.5 - NEW: Much better UTF-8 encoding - NEW: Templates support slicing now (as in Python str) - NEW: 'TLS/SSL' matching rule - NEW: Reverse HTTP proxy can overwrite Expire: entries - NEW: Redirection handler support the ${host} macro now - FIX: POST support in the HTTP reverse proxy - FIX: Some SSL/TLS were fixed.

OpenTTD in Squeeze
Dear Debian release team, I'm Remko 'Rubidium' Bijker, the release manager of (upstream) OpenTTD. I've got good contact with the Debian package maintainer of OpenTTD; he has actually read and commented on this before sending it to you. As I am not the Debian package maintainer the diffs and diffstats that I give/link to do not include changes to the packaging. As it stand now you are to release OpenTTD 1.0.3 with Squeeze [1]. The problem with this release is that there are two small, but easily triggerable, regressions in 1.0.3 over 1.0.2. On the other hand 1.0.3 fixes as (CVE) vulnerability. Due to the design of OpenTTD (the client performs the exact same tasks as the server and only the actions of the players are send over the internet) the fixes for these regressions in 1.0.3 require a modification of both the server and client side of OpenTTD which means that patching 1.0.3 is not advisable; such a patch would mean that the Debian patched OpenTTD is unable to keep in-sync with a non-patched version regardless of which is the server. So we hope that you are willing to release with OpenTTD 1.0.4. After reading the Non-recompilable binaries in source and binary packages thread of debian-devel [2] I came to the conclusion that we (upstream) do not package the sources of two of our binary files together with the rest of the sources. This means that two binary files are not compiled by the Debian package and that you are, in effect, shipping a non-recompilable binary. We maintained the source of these two binary files in a separate branch of our vcs as most users did not have the tools, GRFCodec and NFORenum, to compile these. We will ship the sources of these binary files starting from the 1.0.4 release. The binary files will be automatically recompiled whenever they are removed as e.g. make distclean does. This will require that GRFCodec and NFORenum need to be added as build-dependencies. One big caveat is that we have not released OpenTTD 1.0.4 yet, or started with release candidates, which means that it will take at least two weeks before the final 1.0.4 release will be made. Given that we like to maintain somewhat regular interval in release cycles 1.0.4 is currently planned for 2010-10-01, which I reckon might be too late to consider including this release into Squeeze. However, for us releasing before 2010-09-01 is out of the question due to the need of a release candidate and testing. The question therefore that if you allow the OpenTTD 1.0.4 release to migrate to Squeeze what the latest moment for us to release would be, assuming that once released it gets immediately added to unstable by the Debian package maintainer? I'm asking this because I don't want to unnecessarily rush the release of OpenTTD 1.0.4 and thus possibly introduce more regressions, but I would like to have the fixes into Debian Squeeze and as such I'm looking for some break-even point where all parties can agree on. The diffstat [3] from 1.0.3 in the 1.0 branch is already quite huge: 145 files changed, 14829 insertions(+), 1948 deletions(-) However, much of this are translation updates changes: 56 files changed, 6646 insertions(+), 1576 deletions(-) and the addition of the sources of the binary files: 39 files changed, 7575 insertions(+), 21 deletions(-) leaving not much for the actual fixes [4] as can be seen in the summary of the diffstat [5]: 50 files changed, 608 insertions(+), 351 deletions(-) This the above data is a snapshot as the final release of 1.0.4 has not been made. The upstream changelog for 1.0.4 currently contains 35 fixes, 1 addition (i.e. the missing source code) and the translation updates are not mentioned. We generally use the point releases for bug fixes only, although sometimes very small features (by some seen as bug fixes) get in. For the 1.0.4 we do not intend to include these very small features. My next request is about openttd-openmsx [6]. This is a (small) set of MIDI files that can be played from within OpenTTD. This set was dual-licensed under GPLv2 and Creative Commons Sampling Plus (i.e. non-free), with the note that if not enough GPLv2 material could be found the set would use Creative Commons Sampling Plus material and thus drop the GPLv2 license. This lead to the decision to not package the set until a clear choice regarding the license was made. The set is now complete and has had a few GPLv2-only licensed releases. We would like that openttd-openmsx becomes a Recommends of the OpenTTD package, which would mean allowing the migration of openttd-openmsx into Squeeze and OpenTTD. Hopefully the latter can be combined with the upload of 1.0.4. openttd-openmsx resides at the moment of writing in NEW. My final requests are about the packages grfcodec and nforenum. These packages had their last stable releases in 2007. Those versions were totally unable to compile the openttd-opengfx and as such nightlies were put into Debian's archives. The original upstream developer did
