Package: emacs
Version: 19.34-2
emacs should not only provide info-browser and mail-reader, but news-reader
as well. xemacs does it.
Package: passwd
Version: 1.0-5
When encountering NIS overide entries (like +kubla::) while changing
a local password, the programm will fill the empty fields with the string
(null).
Package: ncftp
Version: 2.3.0-6
This package has neither manual nor info pages. It also does install the
copyright file as /usr/doc/ncftp/copyright instead of /usr/doc/copyright/ncftp.
I can't duplicate this. On my system, `+kubla::' gets replaced
with `+kubla::0:0:::'. People knowledgable about NIS told me that was
ok.
My bug-report was inaccurate:
It happens when passwd encounters a +kubla entry (without colons).
Then it will insert something like:
Package: dpkg
Version: 1.4.0.1
dpkg-buildpackage fails to build packages with binary data files in the source
tree because dpkg-source bails out when doing the diffs. This prevents the
build of the kbd package.
I think a refile should be done, because (at least to my knowledge) the
usage of [+-]login as NIS notation is widespread.
Pleas note that this also happens when there are netgroup entries and

Yes, dpkg-source bails out if tar reports hardlinks:
And if tar converts non ascii-characters in file names to octal representation.
This happens with the kbd package which has a file with a Unicode-encoded
name for demonstration purposes.
I have already reported this
to export this software from these countries and due
to the usage of free RSA-code it is illegal to use the binaries in these
countries.

Install the sources of the hello package and look at changelog, that's what

Let's please not add unnecessary questions in the postinst.
I think /usr/local should be a symbolic link to /local, but it should
always exist.
We will not gain anything with this! I am sure if you think about it
you will recognize that this will just shift the

I think you should look at this issue a bit differently. In one
sense, both policies are broken -- delivering mail to a spool

Hello Peter,
Package: ssh
Version: 1.2.13-1
Could you please check the version 1.2.14-1 if it occurs as well? (I am not

Thanks,

No, i mean sysnews. For two reasons:
a) it is not sysv specific (you will find it on *bsd as well)
b) thats how the package used to be called before i renamed it to news
Later,
Dominik
Could you please check that this is still true in the latest release?
Thanks,

The missing maps will be incorporated in the next release. Thanks for
