Link dixit: >So it would be nice to fix that package in stable. The package was uploaded to stable, against my wishes, with a bogus revision number. So people went over my head for the security upload, so people can fix that. Please do so if you want. For the record, the package I would have uploaded to fix the security issue, with a non-bogus version number, did not have this issue: # paxtar -xOf cvs_1.12.13-12sec60+1_amd64.deb data.tar.gz | paxtar -tzf - | fgrep usr/share/info ./usr/share/info ./usr/share/info/cvs.info-1.gz ./usr/share/info/cvs.info-2.gz ./usr/share/info/cvs.info.gz ./usr/share/info/cvsclient.info.gz So whoever broke it, or whoever cares, is gonna fix that. The bogus version number, unfortunately, is already beyond being fixable. (For a rationale and why exactly they are broken, see bpo’s scheme.) In the meantime, people can use the backport from wheezy/sid: https://www.freewrt.org/~tg/debs/dists/etch/wtf/Pkgs/cvs/cvs_1.12.13+real-8~bpo40+1_amd64.deb bye, //mirabilos -- Support mksh as /bin/sh and RoQA dash NOW! ‣ src:bash (246 (265) bugs: 0 RC, 172 (186) I&N, 74 (79) M&W, 0 F&P) ‣ src:dash (73 (84) bugs: 3 RC, 29 (32) I&N, 41 (49) M&W, 0 F&P) ‣ src:mksh (1 bug: 0 RC, 0 I&N, 1 M&W, 0 F&P) http://qa.debian.org/data/bts/graphs/d/dash.png is pretty red, innit? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
