Package: cron Version: 3.0pl1-114 Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainers, Thank you for maintaining the (probably) most used package in Debian ever. (Or is it bash?). Today I was trying to apply a patch to the latest Debian package in squeeze. Unfortunately, the patch didn't immediately apply. This led me to investigate why. That part was hard, since the Debian patch is one big hunk of diff :) That is fine, but it would be better if you could split your Debian patch into quilt patches so reviewing them is made easier. I know you have an SCM, but for people who use the package on their systems, trying to apply a patch, it would be much easier if you could split patches into smaller parts. Thanks for all the hard work, Best, Allard -- Package-specific info: --- EDITOR: not set --- usr/bin/editor: /usr/bin/vim.nox --- /usr/bin/crontab: -rwxr-sr-x 1 root crontab 30248 Oct 4 17:37 /usr/bin/crontab --- /var/spool/cron drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Apr 8 13:38 /var/spool/cron --- /var/spool/cron/crontabs drwx-wx--T 2 root crontab 4096 May 13 2009 /var/spool/cron/crontabs -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages cron depends on: ii adduser 3.112 add and remove users and groups ii debianutils 3.4 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii dpkg 1.15.8.4 Debian package management system ii libc6 2.11.2-6 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libpam-runtime 1.1.1-6 Runtime support for the PAM librar ii libpam0g 1.1.1-6 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libselinux1 2.0.96-1 SELinux runtime shared libraries ii lsb-base 3.2-23.1 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip Versions of packages cron recommends: ii exim4 4.72-1 metapackage to ease Exim MTA (v4) ii exim4-daemon-heavy [mail-tran 4.72-1 Exim MTA (v4) daemon with extended pn lockfile-progs <none> (no description available) Versions of packages cron suggests: ii anacron 2.3-14 cron-like program that doesn't go pn checksecurity <none> (no description available) ii logrotate 3.7.8-6 Log rotation utility Versions of packages cron is related to: pn libnss-ldap <none> (no description available) pn libnss-ldapd <none> (no description available) pn libpam-ldap <none> (no description available) pn libpam-mount <none> (no description available) pn nis <none> (no description available) pn nscd <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
