Package: how-can-i-help Version: 20 Severity: normal I run testing and use how-can-i-help. Often, I'm informed about packages which are supposed to be removed from testing and the maintainer might need help. But when I actually look at the referenced but, it is already closed (i.e. false alarm).
It would be great if only issues are reported, where actually help is needed. Today the following is displayed: New packages going to be removed from Debian 'testing' (the maintainer might need help): - debmake - https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/debmake - removal on 2025-04-25 (bug: #1100208) Now, when I look at #1100208: Package: src:debmake; Maintainer for src:debmake is Osamu Aoki <os...@debian.org>; Reported by: Santiago Vila <sanv...@debian.org> Date: Wed, 12 Mar 2025 16:33:18 UTC Severity: serious Tags: ftbfs, patch, sid, trixie Found in version debmake/4.5.1-1 Fixed in version debmake/4.5.1-2 Done: Chris Hofstaedtler <z...@debian.org> ~~~~ And as stated, this happens quite often. -- System Information: Debian Release: trixie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to de_DE.UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages how-can-i-help depends on: ii libruby3.0 [ruby-json] 3.0.4-8 ii libruby3.1t64 [ruby-json] 3.1.2-8.5 ii ruby 1:3.3+b1 ii ruby-debian 0.3.10+b13 ii ruby-json 2.9.1+dfsg-1+b1 how-can-i-help recommends no packages. how-can-i-help suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- Dr. Helge Kreutzmann deb...@helgefjell.de Dipl.-Phys. http://www.helgefjell.de/debian.php 64bit GNU powered gpg signed mail preferred Help keep free software "libre": http://www.ffii.de/
