build self-contained repository for offline use
I need to build a repository to allow some specified packages to be installed on computers without internet access. It needs to contain the specified packages plus any dependencies (new packages and new versions) from squeeze plus other repositories such as squeeze backports and some local ones. I want to include everything beyond a basic squeeze install. (Ideally I can feed in a list of stuff to be excluded.) Does anyone know a tool/process for doing this? thanks, Hamish -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

May i add that '/etc/profile' is one of those files that are never automatically
touched when installed once.
,[ /usr/share/doc/base-files/README ]
Q. After upgrading my system recently, I noticed that some files from
base-files do not match the ones which are installed on a fresh install
of squeeze. Should I not be warned about that?
A. Those files are configuration files, so they are completely under
the control of the system admin. The files installed by base-files are
just defaults. Changes in the default files are not important enough
to warn the user, as it is also policy that prompting should be
reduced to a minimum. This is also the reason they are not handled via
dpkg's conffile mechanism.
In either case, if you want to "upgrade" those files, just look at the
postinst for base-files (i.e. /var/lib/dpkg/info/base-files.postinst)
and you will see how they are created and where their master copies are:
install_from_default /usr/share/base-files/nsswitch.conf /etc/nsswitch.conf
install_from_default /usr/share/base-files/dot.profile /root/.profile
install_from_default /usr/share/base-files/dot.bashrc/root/.bashrc
install_from_default /usr/share/base-files/profile /etc/profile
install_from_default /usr/share/base-files/motd /etc/motd
So, if you want your system to be as similar as possible to a newly
installed squeeze system, you might want to sync these files manually.
`-
So basically since squeeze stock Debian has support for '/etc/profile.d' but
when Debian has been installed with an earlier version and had been
{dist,full}-upgraded this isn't the case.
The admin has to take manual action first.

Bug: dh_make fails to make driver symbolic links without absolute paths
Apparently cp -s needs absolute paths. Yet dh_make tries to use it relative paths (called from Debian dpkg-buildpackage version 1.15.8.10ubuntu1). Quoting relevant log below: # Copy only the driver source to the proper location cp -s driver/* debian/XXX-source/usr/src/modules/XXX cp: `debian/XXX-source/usr/src/modules/s2226/XXX.ko': can make relative symbolic links only in current directory Has this been fixed in upstream?

How to warn user about breaking change in location of runtime file?
Hi, I'm maintainer of uWSGI package and want to introduce in next version of package possibly breaking change in location of runtime file. uWSGI is a (web-)application server and usually is proxied by Apache2/Nginx/Cherokee via communication socket. uWSGI init.d script, provided by uwsgi package, guarantees creation of UNIX socket in '/run/uwsgi//socket' (where is the name of user-made configuration file seen by init.d script). I want to move socket location from '/run/uwsgi//socket' to '/run/uwsgi/app//socket'. If user relied on socket location, then upgrade of uwsgi package will require manual editing of frontend server configuration. Until editing (and reloading of upstream server), behavior of the whole server stack will be broken. So I want to provide visible warning about introduced change in socket location. And I'm curious about how to do it right. I've asked about it in debian-mentors [1]. In short: I've asked for advice in choosing between: 1) mentioning of change in NEWS.Debian, 2) providing debconf note, 3) both 1. and 2., 4) something else. I've recieved no answers though. Since then, I've found that similar questions were discussed in debian-devel some years ago (I've found threads from 2006, 2007 years). And the conclusion was to use of NEWS.Debian exclusively (and to not abuse debconf). I've also found and read relevant sections of Debian Developer's Reference: 6.3.4 and 6.5.1. These sections also recommends to use NEWS.Debian only. So I assume that mentioning of change in NEWS.Debian only is the right way. Is it still true? Or there is more preferred way to warn user?
