Though you say you have no time for kfreebsd, you've written many long emails complaining about it and that seems ironic and counter- productive all round. Likewise I didn't want to waste much time arguing with you. With https://bugs.debian.org/785796#45 you forgot to actually copy any kfreebsd maintainers on the mail, but I did find it anyway when looking into the FTBFS. That and your other mails I've seen came over as quite offensive, and if I haven't replied to you that's why. I did meanwhile look to address this specific issue long-term via glibc, without needing changes to util-linux (https://bugs.debian.org/785796#65). It seems that won't work as Debian buildds don't support that feature yet and another issue blocks them from being upgraded. > Anyone holding their breath waiting for me to do (further) > kfreebsd work should prepare themselves for dissapointment. Guillem's workaround in https://bugs.debian.org/787042#5 would be sufficient to resolve the current situation with Debian sid. I don't think it's suitable for upstreaming and should be only temporary. He has meanwhile produced something else which may be more appropriate for upstreaming. But I wouldn't necessarily have waited for that when you have one build-essential package FTBFS and another uninstallable. Regards, -- Steven Chamberlain ste...@pyro.eu.org
