Hi all, I got an above reports and I thought it was reasonable at first, but, in TeX world, "normalsize" is a correct terminology and I guessed the above sentence is an intentional one of the upstream author (I cited the above from the original document i.e. readme.flt).

All worked fine and I ended up with this:
package DBIx::Password;
use strict;
use DBI();
@DBIx::Password::ISA = qw ( DBI::db );
($DBIx::Password::VERSION) = ' $Revision: 1.7 $ ' =~ /\$Revision:\s+([^\s]+)/;
my %driver_cache;
my %virtual1 = {};
my $config = "/etc/dbix-password.conf";
open (IN,$config) || die "I need a config file: $!";
my @fields = qw(user username password port database attributes connect driver
host);
while () {
next if /^(#.*)?$/; #skip comments and blanks
my @user = m/:?'([^']*)':?/g;
foreach (0 .. 8) { #write fields
$virtual1->{$user[0]}->{$fields[$_]} = $user[$_];
};
}
close IN;
sub connect {
[...]
The only problem I face is a local/global one:
When running the script using this module, I get this error:
mrmime_SLASH:/# install-slashsite
Global symbol "$virtual1" requires explicit package name at
/usr/lib/perl5/DBIx/Password.pm line 47.
What does it mean ??

That's pushing it, I think. I've had several experiences as a maintainer where something in an upstream package changed that seemed insignificant to me, but which broke some other package that depended on mine. These events aren't a big deal if everyone is "engaged" and bugs are getting addressed as they are reported. Let's stick to the main problem. Bdale

You've created the lexical variable %virtual1. Once you've done that,
$virtual1{foo} is OK - that accesses elements of the hash.
$virtual1->{foo} is something different, though. That takes $virtual1,
treats it as a reference to a hash, and tries to access elements within
that hash. You haven't declared $virtual1 as a lexical, so, since you
have strict vars in force, perl correctly complains that you're using an
undeclared package variable.
The important things to understand are:
* $virtual1 is *not* the same as %virtual1. In particular, it occupies
a different slot in the symbol table, and declaring one as a lexical
doesn't affect the other. Don't get confused by the syntax for
accessing elements of hashes [1].
* {} returns a reference to a hash, not the hash itself.
* Always, always, always use -w (or 'use warnings' in Perl >= 5.6). If
you'd done this, you'd get the warning "Reference found where
even-sized list expected", which points to the real problem.
In summary: your bug is that you need to change 'my %virtual1 = {};' to
'my $virtual1 = {};'.
[1] Incidentally, this is slated to change in Perl 6 to something closer
to what a lot of people seem to expect. See
http://www.perl.com/pub/a/2001/05/03/wall.html>.

Bug#126775: omniorb-doc examples don't compile
Package: omniorb-doc Version: 3.0.4-2.4 Tags: patch I have adopted the examples to autoconf/automake. This works very well. Maybe one can push this to the upstream developers? What I did: All files dir.mk, dir.mak, GNUmakefile, *.module, *.pkg, and the obsolete directories lifecycle and partcl are removed. They are replaced by a configure.ac, a dozen Makefile.am files and a bootstrap script to run aclocal, automake and autoconf. Two minor problems remain: 1. I put -DUsePthread directly into the Makefile.am files. Better would be to check for the pthread libs. 2. As suggested by the omniORB documentation, I have created a file /usr/include/omniORB3/sitedef.h, which contains only one line: #define __x86__ /* or: __sparc__, __powerpc__, ... */ This file is included by /usr/include/omniORB3/\ CORBA_sysdep.h mainly to set _OMNIORB_HOST_BYTE_ORDER_ to 0 for big endian machines and to 1 for little endian machines. I don't like this. It makes cross compiling impossible. Also, autoconf already has a macro AC_C_BIGENDIAN, which defines WORDS_BIGENDIAN or not depending on the byte sex. Btw: I believe that the bugs #49037 (omniorb-doc file placement, 2 years and 58 days old) and #114718 (empty dirs in omniorb-doc, 82 days old) are gone. Cheers, -- W.

from potato to woody without a free internet connection
Hello, I'm running debian potato right now. I want to upgrade it to Debian Woody, but I don't have a free internet connection. Can I update my potato by burning a cd on school. And Install it on my machine at home? I can't find cd-images (iso's) of debian woody. Aren't there cd-images of debian woody? Greetz, Tom Jongsma NL

This is a question for debian-user, not debian-devel. In case you just didn't notice that there *was* a debian-user, the answer to your question is "Woody isn't released yet. When Woody is a released Debian, ISO images will be available." Oh, and yeah, you should be able to upgrade via CD. :) Dave pgpkrqXt7S3Dh.pgp Description: PGP signature

Another way to do it is described in /usr/share/doc/apt/offline.text.gz. You'd still need to do "apt-get update" from home, but that's only a couple of megs. Eric

I'm not sure how official these are but there are some at: http://www.planetmirror.com/pub/debian-cd/woody/i386/ [i386 only] or for better bet go to http://cdimage.debian.org/ then at the bottom there is a link to testing site.

This is why I labeled it as "if it were me". Of course I tend to take a harder view of whats the programmers responsibilities when releasing a package than most people.

There are *unoffical* CD images for woody. Click on the unoffical link in cdimage.debian.org. The number binary CDs for woody has exploded, you can create your own CD-image using the debian-cd package. It's actually pretty easy to use.

This is bogus, anything can die in an OOM situation. Are you going to
put all daemons into inittab?
You should be trying to avoid OOM situations in the first place.

However, sysklogd and klogd are logging daemons. They deserve some special treatment IMHO.

oops. yeah. i should have cut-and-pasted the script i got working in
/tmp instead of what i originally typed in the message. there were a
few obvious errors in the message. but the point was to be provide
illustration of how to go about it, not an exact solution for your
problem. i.e. method, not detail.
---cut here---
#! /usr/bin/perl -w
use Data::Dumper ;
use strict ;
my @fields = qw(hostname username password port database attributes
connect driver dbhost) ;
my $virtual1 = {} ;
while (<>) {

} ;
} ;
print Dumper($virtual1) ;
---cut here---
from the (modified) input you provided, this produces output like this:
---cut here---
$VAR1 = {
'personales' => {
'driver' => 'mysql',
'username' => 'root',
'attributes' => '{}',
'database' => 'acs',
'port' => '',
'password' => 'op.re,13',
'dbhost' => 'localhost',
'connect' =>
'DBI:mysql:database=PaginasPersonales:host=localhost'
},
'acs' => {
'driver' => 'mysql',
'username' => 'root',
'attributes' => '{}',
'database' => 'acs',
'port' => '',
'password' => 'op.re,13',
'dbhost' => 'localhost',
'connect' => 'DBI:mysql:database=acs:host=localhost'
}
};
---cut here---
which is pretty much the structure you wanted.
other comments:
i still think you should use a field separator which isn't in the field
contents - much simpler, and far less prone to error.
there's also no need to have quotes (`) around the connect string -
you'll only have to strip them off before using it.
also, why have the connect string at all when it can be built up from
the details provided in the other fields? it seems to me that the
fields you need are:
username
dbi_driver
attributes
db_name
db_host
db_port
db_user
db_password
the connect string can be built up like so:
$connect = "DBI:$driver:database=$db_name:host=$db_host" ;
(using db_port, db_user, and db_password as well if required)

anyone interested in maintaining cvsweb?
I wonder if anyone has any more interest in maintaining cvsweb than I do? I feel viewcvs has thoroughly superceded it in functionality, and if I could come up with a transparent rc file converter, I would just make the cvsweb package sidegrade to viewcvs. Failing that I'm still looking for some way to deprecate it so it can be removed from debian eventually.But if someone still prefers cvsweb and wants to continue to maintain it, speak up. -- see shy jo

I have already grabbed the latest release and started work on evms packages for Debian, though I haven't touched them for over a week since I have been away. I should have experimental packages ready within the next week or so. I have been using LVM for some time, and I am eager to start working with EVMS. Once I have working packages, I will be migrating some of my LVM volumes to EVMS using them, which should be a good initial test. I have not as yet built a kernel with the EVMS patch. I hope it is possible to include both LVM and EVMS for migration purposes; is this true? -- - mdz
