Most autopkgtest reports are FTBFS problems. I object filing FTBFS automatically.

That seems to be the consensus. Fair enough. I shall see about
getting a PTS tag for these reports. I'll leave them formatted as a
BTS submission so that they can be simply bounced to the BTS if
desired.

What should be on a rescue CD ? (was Re: Debian Live Lenny Beta1)
Daniel Baumann writes ("Debian Live Lenny Beta1"):
> * The rescue flavour, containing system rescue and forensic related

I've spoken to Daniel and the main question here is determining the
right list of packages for the rescue flavour.
So in a spirit of consultation, and to make sure we don't leave out
anything small but vitally useful, please send me your suggestions for
things which we might forget to put on the rescue CD but which would
be very useful.
Obviously it will have the usual filesystem and disk management tools,
basic networking stuff, relevant security functionality, a selection
of text editors.
Hopefully we can fit enough compiler toolchain to be able to recompile
a Linux kernel. I think we will be avoiding X11. We'll have w3m and
probably an irc client :-) (but which one?)
What hex editor(s) should it have ? How important is it to have
python, tcl, ruby or other scripting languages ? Which ONE version
of Emacs ? Both nvi _and_ elvis ?
etc.
Please send replies directly to me and don't worry about duplicating
what other people send. On the other hand please don't email me if
all you can think of is obvious thinks like fdisk, mdadm, mkfs,
dmsetup, lilo, grub, ...
The current list (which I haven't added even my suggestions to yet)
is at
http://git.debian.net/?p=live-helper.git;a=blob;f=lists/rescue
(I am told - I can't check right now because alioth seems to be down)
We may end up with two CDs - a heavy and a small one - depending on
what our list of packages looks like.

What about buildstat.debian.net as a central place for such tests? By
providing a common QA workflow, this will help ones to had there own
QA tool.
I attached a script I use to run lintian to show how simple it can be to
add new check. You can run it by grabbing buildstat-job-manager here:
http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/collab-qa/buildstat/trunk/buildstat-job-manager/?rev=0&sc=0

So what's going to happen with lintian.debian.org, and will the lintian lab still be available to people who're not maintaining it? The lintian lab contains all packages in an extracted form, which can be useful for running statistics, or for having a look at random information -- for instance, I've been trying to do a survey of the README.source acceptance, so as to see whether the wording in policy is good enough as is or whether it might need some polishing for clarity, through use of the lintian lab.

Thanks for your answer.
This software has been first developped on Solaris OS. If i want to
build a package on i386, i'll be forced to adapt upstream code...
It isn't good as explain in maintainer guide, but how to do to package
this software as asked in Debian Bug report - #495959 ?
Am i forced to contact upstream developer to ask him to adapt his software ?

Bug#496967: general: System completely blocks any input
Package: general Severity: grave Since late last week, my system completely hangs - it stops accepting any input from keyboard or mouse - after 3 to 5 minutes after booting. This happens both in a text console and when running X. Of course I suspected a hardware problem first, but the manufacturers test program (a version of "PC doctor" for IBM Thinkpads) gives no errors at all, and does not result in hanging even after more than an hour. Similarly, I can boot from a Knoppix CD and run it happily for hours. Therefore, it seems to me that it is a problem with the Debian installation, a quite up-to-date testing. There were no log messages at all in syslog, messages, or kern.log which point to a cause. I tried with the current lenny kernel (2.6.26, I think) and the previous one (2.6.25), and there was no difference - so it is probably not the kernel. I have no idea how I can access the LVM volumes on the harddrive, therefore I have a hard time presenting details from logs. I will try to copy interesting things (like dpkg.log) to /boot which is not on LVM. Don't delay lenny's release because of this - but in case this is actually a grave bug, I think I'd rather report it now than complain later...

Right, I'm aware of that constraint. Might it be possible to satisfy this requirement while still allowing developer access to the machine, though, and just disabling UserDir support?

It does protect users from having their passwords sniffed on login in the event of a compromise, but it doesn't prevent their ssh authentication forwarding (if any) from being used to compromise other hosts in the same way that password sniffing could. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.

Well, the decision's been made on the maintainer team to table the cn=config conversion for lenny (which is the obvious choice given where we are in the freeze), so we have more time now for this to be sorted upstream before it's an issue. > > AFAIK the components that have not yet been ported to cn=config are those of > > marginal interest, and I don't think they should block us from moving to > > only support cn=config in the package; users who prefer to stick with > > slapd.conf will be able to switch back after upgrade, at the expense of not > > getting automatic config upgrades from the package anymore. > So you convert it forth, break it during the step.
