Hi, As much as I would like to have this number of problem go down, this has nothing to do with *security* support of the very-old-stable distro as we discussed. Besides this, the plan is to support *some* of the very-old-stable for security, and to only track problems for the packages which nobody cares. At least *I* do not intend to support absolutely all of the packages. For example, taking examples from your list, if we were talking about Squeeze EOL, I wouldn't care about python-pip and python-virtualenv, though I could care more about other python modules which I would use in production (no example here, sorry). That being said, I also would like to highlight the fact that it's quite difficult to convince the release team that all of these bugs needs to be fixed. For example (on one of my packages, so please don't use a stick to beat me on it, and stick to the current discussion), see #710507. I have made a fix for it, as well as many others in the same source package, but no reply from the release team for more than 20 days (see #719632 for the p-u discussion). I don't think this is an isolated case. Though that's annoying that it is stalled, because there's a CVE included in the list of fixes. I'm in no way complaining about the release team. I know they are busy, that they try to minimize problems introduced by changes, and that peer review takes a lot of time. Though the fact is, because of it, some people (not including myself) have completely (and understandably) given up updating stable, and the list of bug you see there could be partly due to it. I'm not sure what is the way forward. On one side, relaxing the rules to get fixes in could be dangerous, and on the other hand, blocking fixes isn't nice. I'd vote for a bit more relaxed policy, but I would understand anyone thinking otherwise. Cheers, Thomas P.S: Also (and with all due respect I have for someone like you, Holger) please avoid pointing fingers at a group of people that have the will to do things. This is counter productive. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

A flash proxy is a miniature proxy that runs in a web browser. It checks for clients that need access, then conveys data between them and a Tor relay. Tor has bridge relays, but in some cases even these can be blocked despite the fact that their addresses are handed out only a few at a time. The purpose of this project is to create many, generally ephemeral bridge IP addresses, with the goal of outpacing a censor's ability to block them. Rather than increasing the number of bridges at static addresses, we aim to make existing bridges reachable by a larger and changing pool of addresses. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

From experience, lots of people feel the same way about binaries linked against libX11. I think FORTRAN is probably less of an issue for people, because it's a much smaller runtime (Installed-Size: 1195). But I would also not like to see devscripts depend on ruby - not just because I don't want to have the runtime installed for a language that I don't speak[1], but because letting people write devscripts in whatever language they feel like turns that package into a maintenance nightmare down the line, by further fragmenting your pool of maintainers. Sure, accepting scripts in ruby means you will get contributions from people who write in ruby who might otherwise not have contributed, and you may have people participating in maintenance who would like to help in ruby and otherwise wouldn't help. But on the flip side, for the package to be well-maintained you now *have* to have maintainers working in each of perl, python, and ruby, and the members of the maintenance team are now that much less able to step in for one another. And on a completely unrelated note, discussions at DebConf about multiarch handling of interpreters reveals that devscripts has its own special problems just by depending on perl + python. Maybe people should see the fix required for this before deciding to make devscripts depend on more interpreters. ;) -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.

I know about people who have similar reactions against pretty much any programming language in existence, X11 binaries (indeed), dynamically linked binaries, copyleft code and non-free stuff. bye, //mirabilos -- Gast: „Ein Bier, bitte!“ Wirt: „Geht auch alkoholfrei?“ Gast: „Geht auch Spielgeld?“ PS: سمَـَّوُوُحخ ̷̴̐خ ̷̴̐خ ̷̴̐خ امارتيخ ̷̴̐خ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: Roll call for porters of architectures in sid and testing
Hi, I am an active porter for the following architectures and I intend to continue this for the lifetime of the jessie release: For SPARC64, I - test a lot of the packages for KDE4 Desktop - testing and currently preparing patches for Iceweasel - test Vanilla build of the Linux kernel, trying to find out why everything after 2.8 breaks certain builds. - currently own a Sun Blade 2500, a Netra X1, and a SunFire T2000 - help port random projects to Sparc64 For Alpha, I - test basic functionality of Xorg and XFCE - port random projects to Alpha I am not a DD/DM On Sun, Sep 1, 2013 at 3:33 AM, Niels Thykier wrote: > > -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- > Hash: SHA256 > > Hi, > > As we announced in [LAST-BITS], we would like to get a better idea of > that status of the ports, to make an informed decision about which > port can be released with jessie.

Bug#721889: ITP: php-patchwork-utf8 -- UTF-8 strings handling for PHP
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: David Prévot * Package name: php-patchwork-utf8 Version : 1.1.11 Upstream Author : Nicolas Grekas * URL : https://github.com/nicolas-grekas/Patchwork-UTF8 * License : Apache-2.0 or GPL-2 Programming Lang: PHP Description : UTF-8 strings handling for PHP Patchwork UTF-8 provides both a portability layer for Unicode handling in PHP, and a class that mirrors the quasi complete set of native string functions, enhanced to UTF-8 grapheme clusters awareness. . Patchwork UTF-8 provides pure PHP implementations for mbstring, iconv, and intl. The following set of portability-fallbacks allows an application to run on a server even if those extensions are not enabled: . * utf8_encode, utf8_decode, * mbstring: mb_convert_encoding, mb_decode_mimeheader, mb_encode_mimeheader, mb_convert_case, mb_internal_encoding, mb_list_encodings, mb_strlen, mb_strpos, mb_strrpos, mb_strtolower, mb_strtoupper, mb_substitute_character, mb_substr, mb_stripos, mb_stristr, mb_strrchr, mb_strrichr, mb_strripos, mb_strstr, * iconv: iconv, iconv_mime_decode, iconv_mime_decode_headers, iconv_get_encoding, iconv_set_encoding, iconv_mime_encode, ob_iconv_handler, iconv_strlen, iconv_strpos, iconv_strrpos, iconv_substr, * intl: Normalizer, grapheme_extract, grapheme_stripos, grapheme_stristr, grapheme_strlen, grapheme_strpos, grapheme_strripos, grapheme_strrpos, grapheme_strstr, grapheme_substr. . The Patchwork\Utf8 class implements the quasi-complete set of native string functions that need UTF-8 grapheme clusters awareness. Function names, arguments and behavior carefully replicates native PHP string functions. . Some more functions are also provided to help handling UTF-8 strings . * isUtf8(): checks if a string contains well formed UTF-8 data, * toAscii(): generic UTF-8 to ASCII transliteration, * strtocasefold(): unicode transformation for caseless matching, * strtonatfold(): generic case sensitive transformation for collation matching . Mirrored string functions are: strlen, substr, strpos, stripos, strrpos, strripos, strstr, stristr, strrchr, strrichr, strtolower, strtoupper, wordwrap, chr, count_chars, ltrim, ord, rtrim, trim, str_ireplace, str_pad, str_shuffle, str_split, str_word_count, strcmp, strnatcmp, strcasecmp, strnatcasecmp, strncasecmp, strncmp, strcspn, strpbrk, strrev, strspn, strtr, substr_compare, substr_count, substr_replace, ucfirst, lcfirst, ucwords, number_format, utf8_encode, utf8_decode. I intend to maintain it under Debian PHP PEAR umbrella, and get rid of the embedded copy from the current version of owncloud. Regards David signature.asc Description: Digital signature
