Done, thanks. Hopefully this looks alright.

Bug#837728: Heimdal has done a new release

2017-01-06 Thread Jelmer Vernooij
Heimdal has done a new release, which has been packaged and will
hopefully make it into stretch, rendering this removal request
unnecessary.

The only thing that's preventing its migration to testing at the
moment is a regression in binutils on MIPS
(https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=844357).

Bug#837728: New Heimdal RC

2016-12-03 Thread Jelmer Vernooij
Just a quick update to this bug: some awesome people upstream (thanks!) have
taken on the effort of getting another Heimdal release out. A RC has been
pushed out, and hopefully a final 7 release will follow before the end of the 
year.

Unfortunately, with the release schedule for Debian being what it is, the
timing is far from ideal [1].

[1] The irony is that the impending removal of Heimdal from Debian
highlighted the urgency for upstream of getting a release out.

Thanks, uploaded.

Can I also upload a new minor version of tevent that's required by
this version of Samba?

That is the case.

I've added them as blockers. There are four still open.

Bug#837728: RM: heimdal/1.7~git20150920+dfsg-4

2016-09-13 Thread Jelmer Vernooij
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian@packages.debian.org
Usertags: rm

Please remove the heimdal source package from testing. As maintainers,
we believe that Heimdal is not in a good enough state to be included in
a stable release.

There is still some activity in the upstream Git master branch. However:

* The last regular release (1.5) was in 2011, last RC was in 2012
* No security releases since Jan 2012, despite various recent security
  releases for MIT Kerberos since and occasional security releases while Heimdal
  was active
* There is no noticeable QA happening upstream. Tests fail on 32 bit,
  regressions have been introduced.
* Nobody upstream is interested in release management; we have asked
  about this on the development list multiple times.

I have filed bugs against the packages that depend on Heimdal to
either switch to building against Heimdal OR MIT or to drop their
Heimdal dependencies altogether.
