Tanenbaum is a leading author in the field (as well as network theory). I
wouldn't discount this book in a hurry. Does it have the OS reviews in it,
though?
this one is used as the OS book in many colleges.
Hi Deedra,

Thanks

Hello,
I'm trying to build a package. There is the dependency ${shlibs::Depends}
in debian/control. On my machine I run unstable. Because of this, the
package built with dpkg-buildpackage needs a libc6 (= 2.3.1-1). I want to

You can use debsign to sign the package after building.

I second that.
But maybe we still need a canonical list of problematic packages, and
the CBP status would only be aplicable to inform wannabe packagers that
there's an ongoing analysis on the packagability of that software.
On second thought, I'm not sure it would be worth it, but I like the

Dear Mentors,
Due to the WNPP the package 'taper' is orphaned for quite a long period
of time. According to Martin Michlmayrs posting in debian-devel, the packet
will be removed from Debian if nobody volunteers to become the new
maintainer. I use taper and think it would be a pity to loose this
