The buildd system is generally quite fabulous, but why does
https://buildd.debian.org/build.cgi?pkg=insighttoolkit show version
3.8.0-1? This version is neither sid, not stable, nor oldstable.
Thanks,

Hi,
I'm cc-ing to debian-devel since I expect others are wondering about
the Boost status.

Could 1.46.1 be uploaded?

I'm with Linus on this: let's just revert to the old behaviour. A

Hi,
I'd appreciate someone to help with maintenance of geomview.
The package description is:

Hi,
I agree with Charles: this is unncessary, unproductive busy-work.
On the other hand, Section 10.4 says only the script name should not
include an extension. So you can leave the extension for
compatibility with the rest of the world. It is a bug, but Section
1.1 says:

Upstream released a new GMP version 5.0.0 with a scary-sounding
caveat:
The 5.0.0 release contain a very large amount of new code, and
countless improvements to existing code, please see below for the

Hi,
The links box of the PTS used to have a link to the experimental
buildd logs. I think I used it last week but today it is not
there; c.f. http://packages.qa.debian.org/g/gmp.html
How can I see the logs?
Thanks,

Paul,
I read through the links you provided. There was a cogent argument
against using flags to symbolize a language. I would accept that.
However, while I understand your argument about losing contributors,
I'm not completely convinced that using a flag chosen by country X to

I'm a little alarmed at the attitude that no one cares about static
linking so that it's okay to drop the .a files. Likely relatively
few people care, but there are some that do.
One example is scientific users that need to ensure reproducibility of
computer experiments [1] over many years: one
Folks,
The package aptitude is priority important and depends on
libboost-iostreams, which is optional. This is a violation of
Policy section 2.5.
The request of Bug #588608 is to raise the priority of
libboost-iostreams to important. Reading Policy, I note that
important means:
Hi,
The discussion surrounding why aptitude is priority 'important' [1] is
very enlightening. Thanks to all contributors.
With respect to the priority of libboost-iostreams, the consensus
seems to be to raise it.

Hi,
The insighttoolkit package is a large and active code base. They use
a system of nightly build/test on a variety of machines [1] to ensure
that the code works on all supported platforms.
I run a build on my amd64 machine -- configured as the Debian ITK
packages -- to expose issues early.
