If you really plan to fix apt and squid related problems, it would be
nice if #56 was fixed.

Also, the default setup for Squid do not allow it to proxy all
packages in the archive (the maximum_object_size is too small).  In
Debian Edu, we increased it from 20480 KB to 153600 KB, to allow the
openartwork and fluid-soundfound packages to be proxied.  In Debian
Edu, PXE installation is set up out of the box, and to use it for
several machines it is vital to proxy also the big packages. :)

Happy hacking,

HTTP pipelining is broken; don't use it. (Its now considered
fundamentally insecure - see the HTTP Smuggling whitepaper for all the
gory details). We're unlikely to ever invest a lot of time in it:
browsers are now going for many parallel TCP connections, and the HTTP
working group is blessing more connections as good practice. (This is vs
deep pipelining).

That said, squid handing back a truncated response is definitely a bug,
if it is indeed squid causing that (the bug doesn't have enough data to
tell - a tcpdump of a broken session would help, I suspect).

Michael has created a squid-deb-proxy in Ubuntu, which should be pretty
trivial to include in Debian, that configures squid appropriately for
apt; and advertises it over avahi; squid-deb-proxy-client teaches apt to
use a zeroconf configured proxy.

Yes, it was a nice tool.  I tested it for the first time a few weeks

I noticed in #436722 that Martin Pitt was positive to shared

I am one of those 27.

Would not be easier and more straightforward if the mail setup is
automatically changed for us?

The net effect would be the same: receiving @debian.org mail on master.

Am I missing anything?

While I appreciate the vote of confidence in my omniscience, I do not

Handling optimization flags in Debian packages

2010-04-04 Thread Tiago Bortoletto Vaz
Hi all,

I've faced an issue (#557550) which is much probably caused by a CPU which
doesn't support SSE2 instructions. I'm not sure about the best way to address
this. Any suggestion will be very welcome. Actually I can see the following
workarounds:

1) consider that most of CPUs support this flag, so tell the reporter to
compile the package by him/herself.

2) remove this specific flag during package building, ending with a
non-optimized software available for all users.

3) create a specific -sse2 (or -non-sse2) package.

4) ask the upstream to code runtime checks before using SSE2 specific
instructions (is that possible?).

For now, my choice is #1.

Btw, there is an old proposal [0] related to this subject but I have no ideia
how it's going.

Those of us not having a mail forward have already decided
(implicitly, if you like) to receive the email in master.

Why would we have to do something for things to work as before?

Juat announce "Effective [some day], people who do not have an email
forward setup will have one pointing to master, so that they will continue
to receive email in master" and be done with it.

This is a bad decision.


The only architecture where you can assume, that all CPUs support MMX 
and SSE{2} is amd64. So you can enable the optimizing flags only on this 
arch.

I am also handling it this way in my packages.

This is not acceptable and would make your package rc-buggy. Even though
it's called i386 and in fact only supports i486, we are not in a state
where we want to ditch support for all pre-Pentium 3 CPUs.

It's not an option, so you will need to do something else.

This is the wrong answer; we officially support CPUs dating back to 486.

This is the best.  Also there are libraries like liboil that implement
various common functions that can benefit from SIMD extensions and that
automatically select the right version at run-time.  Perhaps this
package can use that?

I am going to politely assume that what you are saying is "would you
please do this for me", rather than "I insist you do this because I
can't be bothered to waste a precious 30 seconds on it and would rather
write several mails instead".  In response to your request, I am sorry,
but I am unlikely to do a mass update of people's mail forwards for
this.

I'm sorry too, but sending email to /dev/null as a punishment for not
reading -devel-announce in 14 days (for whatever reason) is everything
but "polite".

It's true that it takes very little time to read the docs and find this:

echo "emailforward: f...@bar.com" | gpg --clearsign | mail cha...@db.debian.org

I'll do that. So, no, I didn't mean "please do this for me", but I will
not insist that you have to do it either. Let people lose their email
and see what happens. It will be fun.

Thanks.

Thanks Ben and all others who showed me I was choosing the wrong way here. I
liked the idea of building an extra non-sse2 binary until the upstream
(hopefully) starts using a liboil(-like) library. If things go well I'll
document somewhere for future reference.

Bug#576479: ITP: libhttp-server-simple-psgi-perl -- simple HTTP server with PSGI application support

2010-04-04 Thread Jonathan Yu
Package: wnpp
Owner: Jonathan Yu 
Severity: wishlist
X-Debbugs-CC: debian-devel@lists.debian.org,debian-p...@lists.debian.org

* Package name: libhttp-server-simple-psgi-perl
  Version : 0.14
  Upstream Author : Tatsuhiko Miyagawa 
* URL : http://search.cpan.org/dist/HTTP-Server-Simple-PSGI/
* License : Artistic or GPL-1+
  Programming Lang: Perl
  Description : simple HTTP server with PSGI application support

HTTP::Server::Simple::PSGI is a simple standalone HTTP server, based on the
HTTP::Server::Simple module (see libhttp-server-simple-perl). This module can
be easily used as an embedded web server for development purposes.

NOTE: this package is needed for packaging Dancer (libdancer-perl),
and probably other stuff too.

You mean like [0]?
