Bug#782114: exuberant-ctags: conflicting default alternatives for ctags vs. etags

2015-04-07 Thread Edward Z. Yang
Hello Eric, I dug around for why I filed for the change in behavior. Here is the bug report that prompted it: https://coq.inria.fr/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=2726 ctags -e is not a perfect replacement for etags; in this example, 'make tags' calls out to etags and expects the Emacs version. etags

Bug#730439: ITP: ori -- a secure distributed file system

2013-11-25 Thread Edward Z . Yang
Sure; I just copied the tagline from the website. The basic security guarantees Ori gives is that all of the files that are replicated are cryptographically hashed with SHA-256, so if a node knows the hash of a file, it can verify that it actually got the file after doing some sort of fetch.

Bug#730237: apt-get update reports spurious failures (Unable to connect to ...)

2013-11-22 Thread Edward Z. Yang
Package: apt Version: 0.9.9.1~ubuntu3 Severity: normal When one entry in sources.list is incorrect, apt-get update may incorrectly report that other sources (which are fine) are also broken. This is because apt-get first looks for InRelease before actually downloading Release.gpg; so a single

Bug#730097: etckeeper: Please ignore /etc/cups/printers.conf*

2013-11-21 Thread Edward Z Yang
Package: etckeeper Version: 1.10 Severity: normal Similar to bug #651168, I believe /etc/cups/printers.conf* should be ignored by default. From the manpage: The printers.conf file defines the local printers that are available. It is normally located in the /etc/cups directory

Bug#730099: etckeeper: store-metadata should not record metadata for unversioned files

2013-11-21 Thread Edward Z Yang
Package: etckeeper Version: 1.10 Severity: important Currently, store-metadata respects ignored files, but does not respect unversioned files. .etckeeper should not record data for unversioned files. This can be problematic, for example, if you are incrementally staging some edits to

Bug#542048: etckeeper: storing pristine conffiles in a separate branch

2012-10-29 Thread Edward Z. Yang
I think the easiest way to implement this without swapping /etc is to set up some extra per-process mounts of /etc of different versions. So when you run dpkg, it has /etc mounted to a pristine copy of the repository that isn't what is actually in /etc; then we do a merge and if the merge goes

Bug#668560: exuberant-ctags 'etags' should have lower priority than Emacs 'etags'

Package: exuberant-ctags Version: 1:5.9~svn20110310-2 Severity: normal Currently, exuberant-ctags has higher priority than emacs for the 'etags' executable. Since etags stands for 'emacs tags', it seems that it would make more sense for the emacs executable to take priority; if a user desires

2011-01-27 Thread Edward Z. Yang
That might have some unintended consequences, in particular, cache files should not be shared between users because there's no integrity checking and a user could poison someone elses configuration. Of course, as it stands right now doesn't work either. Maybe a per user cache? Cheers, Edward

Bug#504661: Reproduceable

2008-12-13 Thread Edward Z. Yang
It looks like the bug lies in the nvidia-glx-legacy-96xx-dev install scripts, which don't set up the appropriate symlinks if nvidia-glx-legacy-96xx was installed previously. Also, the uninstall scripts sucks (although this is not a rc-blocking issue). Cheers, Edward -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email
