Bug#1051070: RM: gtimer -- RoQA; low popcon; depends on gtk2
Hi Bastian, I would like to request that gtimer is not removed from Debian. It is an old program, but works for its stated purpose. There is a somewhat active upstream repo at: https://github.com/craigk5n/gtimer/commits/master The closest alternative package, hamster-time-tracker, has a long list of extra dependencies (on non-Gnome systems) for a relatively simple tool. Thanks! Daniel
Bug#1041992: Regressions in text highlighting since upgrading to Debian bookworm
Package: evince Version: 43.1-2+b1 When I upgraded two different Debian stable systems to the bookworm release, regressions were noticed in the text highlighting of evince when reading PDFs created with libreoffice on the same system: 1. Text highlighting using the mouse pointer now only shows as a thin line on the baseline of the text. 2. Text searches no longer highlight the found words, even though the found words are shown in the evince sidebar. The same PDFs made in current libreoffice have functional text highlighting when selecting text or searching them in Google Chrome. And yet evince seems to work as normal when the PDF is not made in the current Debian stable version of libreoffice which is 4:7.4.7-1, for example a PDF made on the Debian bullseye system before upgrade, or any other PDF writer. So, I am not sure whether this is an evince bug, a libreoffice bug or some interaction between the two. Thanks! Daniel
Bug#943844: nouveau: cannot create GPU channel in Buster (worked in Stretch) - GeForce 6150
I reported this bug a long time ago. I had been hoping that by now some update to Debian would contain a fixed Nouveau that would work as expected with this old hardware. I'm still hoping ... I have also been playing around with this myself -- I don't know enough about video hardware (or anything about the Nouveau driver) to try to meddle with the source, but I've changed configuration options in a number of ways to see what would happen. The first thing I should say is that I think the error lines in Xorg.0.log are misleading. I had tried to disable acceleration in Nouveau because it had caused problems in Stretch and earlier. The error message lines: [45.875] (EE) NOUVEAU(0): Error creating GPU channel: -19 [45.875] (EE) NOUVEAU(0): Error initialising acceleration. Falling back to NoAccel [45.875] (**) NOUVEAU(0): [COPY] acceleration disabled seemed to me to be showing that the system was trying to use acceleration. I have tried disabling acceleration by providing a kernel parameter (either "noaccel" or "nouveau-noaccel=1") which I think worked in Stretch, but this does NOT seem to disable acceleration in Buster, which why I was getting the errors above. Those errors appear to have masked the actual error, making it harder to diagnose the problem. If I create a fairly minimal xorg.cong file containing just: Section "Device" Identifier "GeForce_6150" Driver "nouveau" VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation" Option "NoAccel" Option "AccelMethod" "None" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "Default monitor" VendorName "DELL" ModelName "U2410" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "GeForce_6150" Monitor "Default monitor" EndSection then acceleration DOES seem to be disabled and I no longer get the errors in Xorg.0.log. In this state Buster boots to the login/greeting screen in the monitor's default resolution of 1920x1200 and I can enter a username and password. These are validated correctly and the screen blanks for a few moments and returns to the login/greeter. If I open a commandline console with ALT+F1 I can log in. If I then try to start an X session with startx I get the following. (Sorry, this is retyped by hand on another machine and may not be 100% correct (and lines may have wrapped). Many of the original lines were terminated with LF but not CR at the end and so the following lines appeared indented.

Bug#968663: gtimer: Keyboard shortcut for delete task is the same as for annotate task
Package: gtimer
Version: 2.0.0-1.2+b1
Severity: normal
Dear Taylor,
* What led up to the situation?
I attempted to delete a large number of tasks from the main gtimer
window using the keyboard shortcut rather than the mouse action.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I pressed the keyboard shortcut for Delete (Ctrl+A)
* What was the outcome of this action?
I got an annotation pop-up for the task
* What outcome did you expect instead?
I expected the task to be deleted.
Checking the Task menu, I noticed that both Annotate and Delete have the
keyboard shortcut of Ctrl+A, but Annotate appears to take precedence.
Line 387 of main.c looks to be related:
{ "TM_Delete", NULL, gettext_noop("TM|_Delete"), "A",
By the way, the upstream homepage link on
https://packages.debian.org/buster/gtimer is out of date. It should now be:

Thanks for packaging this very useful application!

Bug#966554: how to apply the workaround?
Hi quixote, running grub-install /dev/sda still gets me the same errors about "no space left on device." (I checked: it's 200MB, and has 98% free space.) Do you have a separate /boot partition, and if so, how much free space does that have? Is /dev/sda really 200MB or 200GB? Because 2% of 200MB would be a really small Debian install :-) Cheers! Daniel
Bug#946641: stops: Mark stops as 'Multi-Arch: foreign'
Hi Bernhard, Marking stops as 'Multi-Arch: foreign' should make that installation possible. The package 'stops' contains binary instrument data, which as far as I know, is uniquely created by the undocumented and well-hidden instrument editor feature in aeolus (hold down Ctrl then left-mouse-click on any stop in the aeolus GUI to open the instrument editor). This instrument data works fine when copied to Debian systems running other arches (I have tested amd64 -> armhf). Cheers! Daniel

There have been many problems with these onboard graphics, quite a large
fraction of the nouveau bug reports in Debian are from system with it.
Agreed ... but note that this hardware had no difficulties with graphics
in Debian Stretch or Jessie. The failure is new with Buster.

You may want to try different kernels (4.9 from stretch, 5.2 from
testing and/or 5.3 from unstable) and see if they give better results.
As I said: Stretch works fine as it is. That is: The Stretch kernel
works in Stretch using nouveau 1.0.13 with a 4.9 kernel. I haven't tried
the Stretch kernel in Buster ...

Looks like the video driver ABI version has changed as well as the

I normally try to stay clear of testing and unstable, but I'll try those
when I get a chance ...

Bug#943844: nouveau: cannot create GPU channel in Buster (worked in Stretch) - GeForce 6150
Package: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
Version: 1:1.0.16-1
Severity: important
File: nouveau
Dear Maintainer,
[Message prepared by reportbug 7.5.3-de10u1 but mailed from Thunderbird
on a different system]
In Debian 10 "Buster" the Nouveau driver does not start correctly unless
the "nomodeset" kernel parameter is supplied.
Without "nomodeset" the system boots to a full-screen graphical login
screen. Login credentials can be entered, but the screen then flashes
off (black) for a fraction of a second and returns to the login dialog.
With "nomodeset" Debian starts but the screen resolution is not optimal,
and cannot be changed. The system boots to a graphical login screen with
the edges black -- apparently a 1280x1024 displayed full-height but
narrower than the screen. When login credentials are entered the system
boots but still only shows a 1280x1024 desktop. Attempts to change the
resolution (e.g. using xrandr to add a new mode and switch to it fail).
The system uses an Asus M2NPV-VM motherboard with NForce 430 chipset and
GeForce 61500 onboard graphics. The monitor is a Dell U2410 which has a
native resolution of 1920x1200 pixels.
On Debian 9 "Stretch" it was not necessary to specify "nomodeset", and
the full screen resolution was used.
This bug report is being prepared from a text console after booting
WITHOUT "nomodeset". The errors ("EE") at 45.875 seem to be crucial. I
have compared /var/log/Xorg.0.log files from this system when booting
Buster and when booting Stretch, and (apart from minor details like
module version numbers and the time field) the logs are identical up to
this point.

Hi Boyuan, > Dear stops maintainer (Hi Free Ekanayaka) Maintainer for this package is Debian Multimedia Team, it's just that Free was the last uploader. > I was cleaning up packages that hasn't receive any upload in Debian for a > long > time and noticed that your package, stops, received no upload since 2007, > which is quite a long period of time. As I recall, this package is static data, and may not ever need to be updated upstream. Debian's version 0.3.0 is still the current release: http://kokkinizita.linuxaudio.org/linuxaudio/downloads/index.html stops is a dependency of the active package https://packages.debian.org/sid/aeolus which has a new upstream release available (0.9.7). > Making uploads to stops might be necessary according to [1] since we want to > make Debian 100% reproducible in the future [2] and all packages built before > December 2016 will need a rebuild. Sounds good! Also #888669 might need looking at. I am not a Debian Developer but happy to help if I can find a sponsor. > I am also considering initiating the MIA procedure[3] (targeting > package only, not to the person because I know you look still active) if > there's no reply after certain period of time Hopefully that will not be necessary, aeolus is a unique software instrument and it would be a shame to lose it from Debian.

Bug#794890: [Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#794890: Bug#794890: #794890 npm: new upstream version
Hi Jonas, hi Chris, >> Wow, I count at least 50 dependencies that are missing Debian >> packages. See the last comment on: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=870460 https://wiki.debian.org/Javascript/Nodejs/Tasks/npm says the missing build dependency is python-os-traits: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=877980 so that might be a good place to start. >> Ubuntu has version 3.5.2 in their repository: >> https://packages.ubuntu.com/artful/npm > > Good for them. That package was updated in Dcember 2015, so Ubuntu might benefit from an update in Debian too. Cheers! Daniel
Bug#857338: systemd-sysv: pre-depends fails to resolve in cross-architecture debootstrap from jessie

Bug#828632: tidy-html5: diff for NMU version 1:5.2.0-1.2
Hi Mattia, > If you look for sponsor: please do feel free to open a RFS as documented > at point 5 of https://mentors.debian.net/intro-maintainers ! > Also, I'm always available to sponsor stuff. Thanks! I did have a sponsor for the tidy-html5 package previously who was very helpful with the initial upload, but that sponsor is no longer available to work on the package. > If you want, I can merge pinotree's thing into git (or you could do so!) > and then upload. Please do merge the latest patches and changelog into collab-maint and upload the 1:5.2.0-2 version. There are some other fixes for long-standing bugs in that repo, which I hope will be useful. Cheers! Daniel
Bug#828632: tidy-html5: diff for NMU version 1:5.2.0-1.2
Hi Pino, > I've prepared an NMU for tidy-html5 (versioned as 1:5.2.0-1.2) and > uploaded it to DELAYED/14. Please feel free to tell me if I > should delay it longer. Thanks! The tidy-html5 package is now in collab-maint: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/tidy-html5.git/ The original maintainer Jason (in cc) is now contributing to that repo. Would it be possible for you to merge your patches there, please? I had previously prepared a 1:5.2.0-2 release with some other fixes, but as a non-Debian Developer I cannot upload it myself. Cheers!

Bug#827716: Non-maintainer upload to fix RC bugs
Hi Ondřej, >> I'd be happy to merge other fixes I have made since version 1:5.2.0-1 >> into http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/tidy-html5.git/ if >> that's OK with you. I've merged a few of my improvements into collab-maint/tidy-html5.git today, and merged back most of your improvements to the original repo, thanks! The solution for bug #827716 of using Breaks: for the overwritten symlink is not ideal, because on a system which has the older version of libtidy installed, the upgrade of libtidy-dev results in the error: libtidy-dev (1:5.2.0-1.1) breaks libtidy-0.99-0 and is installed. ...followed by a dpkg error. The solution I have in the other repo is to use Replaces: for the library package and Conflicts: for the libtidy-dev package, which means that the user is warned to remove libtidy-0.99-0 first, but does not actually result in an error: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/tidy.git/tree/debian/control I feel this is more accurate because libtidy-dev does not generally fit the definition 'Replaces: libtidy-0.99-0' Would you be willing to give this alternative solution for #827716 a try?

Bug#828097: transition: tidy
Hi Jeremy, hi Emilio, You're right, the tidy-html5 source package is meant to replace the tidy source package. I'm sorry for not following the correct procedure there; this is my first attempt to update an orphaned package. This new version is a major update but not a rewrite, as I understand it. The upstream name changed, and also the soname of the library. I'm currently preparing a packaging update to address #827891 #827716 and several other bugs. Cheers! Daniel

Bug#780656: xserver-xorg-input-evdev: Logitech wireless keyboard ignores locale in X.org, defaults to en-us
Package: xserver-xorg-input-evdev Version: 1:2.9.0-2 Severity: normal After upgrading a machine from squeeze to wheezy to jessie, my Logitech K400 wireless keyboard no longer functioned correctly. My locale is en-gb but key presses resulted in en-us characters appearing in applications running under X.org, for example the pipe symbol on the keyboard became a chevron on the screen. It appears to be an old bug filed (twice) in Ubuntu: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-evdev/+bug/993827 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-evdev/+bug/995715 There is a detailed explanation of the issue here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-evdev/+bug/995715/comments/19 Linux kernel 3.2 introduced the logitech_dj HID driver to explicitly support the Logitech Unifying Receiver. This wireless USB hardware is designed for compatible mice and keyboards so that you only need one dongle for multiple devices. It worked fine for both mice and keyboards under squeeze, using a generic USB driver. However the xserver-xorg-input-evdev package does not seem to support this change of drivers, as far as keyboards are concerned. The workaround is for the display manager startup script to force the locale. In my case, I did this in ~/.fluxbox/startup with the line: setxkbmap gb Thanks!

Hi Sebastian, I don't mind this bug being closed if you think it isn't worth fixing. Just for the record, this is not an artefact of packages.debian.org - taking a look at the debian/control file for the binary vlc-nox package in sid, you can see that... 1. dependencies are listed on libavcodec55 plus most or all of the dependencies of libavcodec55, which is unnecessary, since depending on libavcodec55 should be enough. 2. there is a Pre-Depends: dpkg (= 1.15.6~) which should no longer be required, since all versions of dpkg currently available in Debian are newer than this.

Bug#734763: [Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#734763: Please update libjs-jquery-cookie and use upstream numbering
Hi Marcelo, I'm late, but only for clarify why I created the jquery-goodies package. See: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-javascript-devel/2009-May/000238.html Thanks, it is a very useful package :-) When talking to our upstream developers about the way they use JavaScript, they typically go to get the latest files from GitHub etc. rather than looking first to see which version they can get from Debian. Over time, unless there is a known bug which forces an update, their bundled library becomes older than the version available in Debian. So they don't necessarily always have the latest version, but they do know exactly the version they have. Cheers!

Bug#734763: Please update libjs-jquery-cookie and use upstream numbering
Hi Raphael, $ dpkg -c galette_0.7.6.1-2_all.deb |grep cookie lrwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2013-11-05 10:03 ./usr/share/galette/includes/jquery/jquery.cookie.js - ../../../javascript/jquery-cookie/jquery.cookie.js So there's no bug here regarding jquery-cookie. Sorry, I did not realise that symlinks could be used for specific js libraries in this way. I thought they were handled at the webserver level, with an alias. There might be other local packages with similar dependencies that you should not ignore. Yes indeed, the packages that I hope will enter Debian one day are like this. One major problem that I have with convincing our upstream developers to support Debian is that they could not predict the specific library version available, so it is easier for them to bundle in the library.

Bug#734763: Please update libjs-jquery-cookie and use upstream numbering
Hi Jerome, More than a few packages in Debian depend on the currently packaged version. Do you know if such an update would introduce incompatible changes? libjs-jquery-cookie Reverse Depends: spip spotweb python-django-debug-toolbar python-tables-doc openstack-dashboard spip python-django-feincms python-tables-doc phpmyadmin php-apigen mediawiki libkohana3.2-mod-userguide-php libkohana3.1-mod-userguide-php liblemonldap-ng-portal-perl liblemonldap-ng-manager-perl openstack-dashboard galette dotclear dokuwiki cacti Thanks for the reply. I have checked the list above, and only galette depends on a specific version of libjs-jquery-cookie, in this case (= 8). I guess the current version numbering was chosen because the source package jquery-goodies contains many different libraries, with a variety of upstream version numbers. Would it be a lot more work to create a source package for each of the 23 binary packages? Cheers!

The new version number for libjs-jquery-cookie would be 1:1.4.0 (epoch 1) which would be more recent than 8-2 (epoch 0). It may not be necessary to use an epoch just for galette, as galette appears to bundle its own copy of libjs-jquery-cookie in /usr/share/galette/includes/jquery/jquery.cookie.js - according to: http://packages.debian.org/sid/all/galette/filelist This may have been due to this change: galette (0.7.5.1-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream version. * Keep jquery jquery ui provided by Galette. Perhaps the dependency of galette on libjs-jquery-cookie (= 8) is redundant now. cc'ing Raphaël as he is the maintainer. But then maybe there is a law that Debian binary package numbers can never go downwards... Generating a binary package with a different version number than the source package is definitely possible. Glad to hear it, that sounds like a good solution for these jquery libraries :-) Cheers! Daniel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#736832: Double dependencies for vlc-nox
Package: vlc-nox Version: 2.1.2-2+b1 Severity: wishlist Hello, Looking at the very long list of dependencies for vlc-nox: http://packages.debian.org/sid/vlc-nox I noticed there is a dependency on libavcodec53 or libavcodec54. However many of the same dependencies are listed for both libavcodec54 and vlc-nox, such as: libavutil52 (= 6:9.1-1) libspeex1 (= 1.2~beta3-1) libtheora0 (= 1.0) libvorbis0a (= 1.1.2) libvorbisenc2 (= 1.1.2) libx264-133 zlib1g (= 1:1.2.0.2) The dependency on zlib1g is slightly higher for vlc-nox, but it's an old version in both cases. Also one dependency of vlc-nox is essential, dpkg, albeit on an old version (= 1.15.6~) - is it necessary to list this any more? It would be a bit easier to read the dependency list for vlc-nox if it wasn't quite so long! Thanks!

Bug#734763: Please update libjs-jquery-cookie and use upstream numbering
Package: libjs-jquery-cookie Version: 8-2 Severity: wishlist Hello, I am preparing a package with a dependency on libjs-jquery-cookie which will require a recent version. The Javascript file in the package http://packages.debian.org/sid/libjs-jquery-cookie might be version 1.0 from the year 2010, but is not explicitly versioned, as far as I can tell. Comparing against the upstream releases: https://github.com/carhartl/jquery-cookie/releases it would be helpful for this package in Debian to use the numbering scheme of upstream, such as 1.4.0, rather than the custom numbering of the whole jquery-goodies bundle.

Bug#721639: Out of date information about MP3 encoding
Package: liquidsoap Version: 1.1.1-6 Severity: minor Hello, The Liquidsoap package in Sid contains a file README.Debian with out of date information from 2007: Liquidsoap, as distributed in debian, does not allow mp3 encoding, hence, cannot output an mp3 stream to any icecast or shout server. This is caused by some patent issues on the mp3 encoding algorithm. We recommend using ogg vorbis, which is a patent free encoding. However, you may want to install the LAME library from the debian (unofficial) multimedia packages as available at: http://www.debian-multimedia.org/ You'll be able then to rebuild this package with mp3 encoding support. For rebuilding with lame support, remove the --disable-lame configuration option from debian/rules. Cheers!

Bug#536061: amsynth: failed to initialise JACK... aborting
Hi Adrian, amsynth cannot be used with jack. This cannot be true. I just tried it on two different machines To clarify, amsynth works with original JACK but not JACK 2, a.k.a jackdmp. This is because amsynth's JACK connection code is a little non-standard, and needs a rewrite to bring it up to date. I've been in contact with the upstream author, but I don't think he has time to rewrite it at the moment. Cheers!

Bug#522150: amsynth: Depends on libjack0.100.0-0
Hi Felipe, jack2 is not going to be in debian soonish JACK 2 has been the upstream release since February, so I hope it will be in Sid soon. we are transitioning from versioned jack packages to unversioned ones, so this should be fixed anyways. Well, JACK 2 is a complete rewrite so there are likely to be other issues. BTW, where can I find information on jack2? I can't find anything other than the source tarball in jack's webpage. If you look under the former upstream name 'jackdmp' (Jack Daemon for Multiple Processors) then you will find more information, e.g. http://www.grame.fr/~letz/jackdmp.html and http://lac.zkm.de/2005/papers/letz_et_al.pdf Cheers!

Bug#522150: amsynth: Depends on libjack0.100.0-0
Hi Felipe, The Debian Multimedia Maintainers will be dropping libjack0.100.0-0 soon, so you should switch to using upstream's default name. Changing libjack0.100.0-0 to libjack0 in debian/control and dropping debian/patches/80_libjack.dpatch should be enough. Unfortunately not in the longer term, there is a more serious bug that amsynth does not work with JACK 2 at all (for example, the current upstream 1.9.2 release of JACK). I have contacted the upstream author of amsynth about this, but it seems the application would need a partial re-write, as the way it currently opens JACK ports is non-standard. Cheers!

Bug#482509: idjc: FTBFS: Nonexistent build-dependency: liblame-dev
Hi Peter, IMO it is a very bad idea to have a package build against a legally dubious library just because the system it was built on happened to have it installed. lame itself is not legally dubious, it's just unfortunate in being liable to software patent enforcement on MP3 encoding. That's reason enough not to include lame in Debian, of course. It should be possible to build idjc without lame, thereby making it suitable for encoding Ogg Vorbis streams only. It would still be a useful application in that context. Cheers! Daniel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Bug#446405: ardour: Embeds too many libs
Hi Antony, It's a shame this hasn't been looked at yet. I hope ardour makes it into Lenny. Various people are working on this - the latest plan is to get a new release of libsndfile upstream, so that Ardour doesn't need to embed a copy. I have been doing a little research into this, and according to http://ardour.org/building, there is: SYSLIBS USE AT YOUR OWN RISK: CANCELS ALL SUPPORT FROM ARDOUR AUTHORS. Use existing system versions of various libraries instead of internal ones (yes|no) It's really not a good idea, because the system libraries don't yet have the patches that Ardour needs. That's why the upstream authors can't support a syslibs version. is it more important to have upstream support or Debian security support? We're aiming for both :-) Cheers!

Hi Lucas, During a rebuild of all packages in sid, your package failed to build on i386. oper_awe.c: In function 'seq_open': oper_awe.c:146: error: 'SAMPLE_TYPE_AWE32' undeclared (first use in this function) In the Makefile from the original source package, it says: # device selections -- multiple avaialble # to disable the device, set value 0 (do not comment out!) # USE_AWE = 1 I believe this relates to proprietary sequencer support for the seriously obsolete Sound Blaster AWE32 ISA sound card, dating from 1994: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_Blaster_AWE32 According to the oldest entry on this changelog: http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/v/vkeybd/vkeybd_0.1.17a-2/changelog vkeybd was split from the awe package, which was removed from sid in 2002, along with the OSS kernel drivers. Although the AWE32 is supported by ALSA now, I think it's quite safe to change the Makefile to read USE_AWE=0 and update the description of the package to remove the reference to AWE32 support. The alternative would be to make the linux-source-2.6.* package a build dependency of this vkeybd package; I don't know if that's acceptable in Debian policy terms.

Bug#377915: Can't change sample rate
Hi Günter, I think this is at least worth a wishlist bug against jackd, because jackd should tell us that it can't do the samplerate we asked for. I agree, at the moment it's confusing for people who have this type of sound chipset, and it seems these are very common now. Jack already prints a message when it cannot provide the 32-bit interface the user requests, falling back to 24, then 16 bit. So it makes sense to provide a similar sort of error message for sample rate. Just checked on my installation and jackd accepts a -r 200 without a complaint. That does seem a little crazy :-) Also, I wonder why the oss driver seemed to work. According to Takashi, because the OSS backend resamples by default. This is the most appropriate behaviour for consumer-type sound applications. For example, if your browser plays a Flash animation with a 22kHz soundtrack directly to a 48kHz interface, the sound is raised in pitch accordingly. Thanks for your help closing this bug :-) Cheers!

Bug#377915: Can't change sample rate
I reported this to the ALSA team - Takashi Iwai suggested: Check your /proc/asound/card0/codec97#0/ac97#0-0 file, whether it contains VRA in Extended ID section. If not, it's 48k-only codec. This is the case with both the test systems showing the problem here, which both have AC97 on-board sound cards. If extra sound interfaces are plugged in (PCI card, USB interface) then these don't have the problem. So this behaviour is not a bug in Debian, it is a limitation of certain sound hardware that can only do 48kHz sampling. There may be a work-around using ALSA's plug layer for software resampling, but this is unlikely to give good JACK performance. Cheers!

Bug#377915: Can't change sample rate
Hi Rui, QjackCtl GUI reports sample-rate as read from jack_get_sample_rate() as client of libjack. It just seems that jackd (server) is running at one SR (44k1) and the libjack client interface is reporting the default one (48k). Looks like a jackd/libjack implementation/deployment specific issue. Thanks for the fast response, we love the app too :-) We gotta dig more on this... more info please (system environment, soundcard, jack and alsa version, etc.)? I've tested this on two Debian systems, with the same results: 1. Dual Opteron workstation, Tyan S2875 motherboard, on-board AMD sound chipset 2. HP ZE2000 laptop, single Turion CPU, on-board ATI sound chipset Both systems are running 64 Studio 0.9x distros (which means a fresh cut of Debian testing amd64 plus our custom RT kernel package in SMP and UP flavours): jackd 0.101.1-1 libjack 0.101.1-1 alsa-base 1.0.11-4 linux-image 2.6.17-4 However the original bug poster was using Debian i386, so it doesn't seem to be a 64 Studio or amd64 specific bug.

Bug#291384: galternatives: Should depend on python2.3, not python.
Package: galternatives Version: 0.8 From /usr/share/doc/python/python-policy.txt.gz: 1.3.1. Interpreter Name --- Python scripts depending on the default Python version (see Section 1.2, `Main package') or not depending on a specific Python version should use `python' (unversioned) as the interpreter name. Python scripts that only work with a specific Python version must explicitely use the versioned interpreter name (`pythonX.Y'). But from 'apt-cache show galternatives': Depends: python (= 2.3), python ( 2.4), python-glade2, gksu (= 0.8.0) This means that galternatives will conflict with python when the default is upgraded to 2.4. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
