Bug#685878: DDP support in netatalk v3

Hi folks, There's a lot of good reasons to see netatalk v3 packaged for Debian, since there are features v2 just doesn't have such as hosting for Apple's Time Machine backups and the like. That said however, there is a bit of a spanner in the works because upstream decided to abandon

Bug#801080: Double->float->int

It may be a bug in gcc that is causing the problem, but code that is sloppy about types is never good coding practice. If the scale values are calculated as doubles, then double should be the type for the variable. That's an upstream issue, but it's affecting Debian users and there's a

Bug#834994: consolation limiting to 64 columns

Package: consolation Version: 0.0.1-1 Severity: important Hi Bill, Intrigued by Consolation as a possible GPM replacement, so I figured I'd remove that and give it a shot. Upon installing it, I find that the mouse cursor will extend to the full console height, but not the full console

Bug#691627: Ubuntu lightdm patch

Bug#873765: Solution to this bug

Hi, I think this tool is probably important enough to Gnome users (sid or not) that it's probably worthwhile to suggest a "patch" version that looks like an upgrade from the 3.25 package that at least temporarily reverts to 3.22. For now it's easy enough to manually revert the package, but all

Bug#870635: Broken upgrade

I just discovered my email configuration broken and, upon investigation, I can see why. I won't re-open this bug, however I believe that that bringing mutt 1.9.1 in to Debian in a way that breaks people's configurations in order to appease a developer who's frankly been openly hostile and pissy

Bug#544651: lvmetad warnings

This warning, for a LUKS-encrypted system as configured by the Debian installer, is spurious. The initrd assumes it should be looking for lvmetad—it shouldn't be, but it doesn't realize that. The correct thing to do here is not to remove the warning as Teemu Likonen suggested—if your configuration

Bug#925270: znc unwisely advertises exact Debian version

Bug#380332: Also interested in this one

Upgrading my stretch box to buster, I got a lot of these familiar prompts, and one very strange one from samba-common that used whiptail (debconf?) and didn't even use a unified or context diff or set DPKG_CONFFILE_OLD/NEW. (I should probably investigate what it's doing and file a bug about
