I had to do that on one of my boxes too. I have two audio cards and
pulseaudio/gnome-applets chose the wrong one (did not find the other).

Re: Re: Bug#728859: ITP: gnome-online-miners -- Crawls through your online content

2014-02-12 Thread Dennis Ruhe
Hi,

Sorry for the late reply.

I have no ambition to join the Debian GNOME team, for the most part I
was looking for a relatively small program to package as a kindof
training. 

I have created the .deb but I don't really have an idea on how to
proceed. I read the packaging guide and everything and it's telling me I
need to find a 'mentor' to ask my questions to etc and upload my
package.

I obviously asked for help in my second message visible here:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=728859

I don't really understand the logic of the different mailing lists etc.
Your message is not visible on the link I send. My message is not
visible in the thread I found your message on, and then there was some
google groups stuff going on.

Anyway. I got the .deb files, during creation there were some warnings I
yet need to fix. But what now?

Regards,
Dennis

No, please don't. I'd rather have other DDs use this energy and
help me (and paultag) go over mentors to support people getting
their new packages into Debian or adopting orphaned ones.

Mentors is way too often neglected in my opinion.

Great. gnome3 does not depend on systemd directly. It depends on some
interfaces provided (solely, currently) by systemd. And it's not gnome3
alone.

Go and help reimplement those interfaces (coding, testing, whatever), or
otherwise do something constructive.

But the normal case is that uninstalling a software you also stop getting the

it claims to provide by uninstalling it.

sbuild maintenance, bug handling and patch review needed

2014-02-12 Thread Roger Leigh
Dear all,

I'm afraid that at present I don't have the time or inclination to be able
to give sbuild any real support in terms to keeping up with bug reports,
including those with patches which need review.  There are a number which
could use some attention, particularly those with patches which need
applying and uploading.  I don't want to be a blocker for these things.
I'm also trying to reduce the amount of time I spend typing each day to
mitigate the RSI I'm currently suffering from, and this means the amount
of time I devote to Debian needs to be reduced.

If anyone would be able to take over some of this stuff, I'd be very
grateful.  I'll continue to be available for answering questions and
helping where I am able, but I'm afraid I won't be able to continue as
one of the primary maintainers for the foreseeable future.


Thanks,
Roger

Those are among the most important distributions which attract most
users and developers. So, it does prove that systemd has already
a large market share.

The point is that multi-billion dollar companies invest money into the
development of systemd and therefore support and push it which will
mean everyone else who uses it profits from that.

That's ok, you don't have to use it. Yet, we have chosen it to be the
default and you should accept that.

You could use a more generic prefix like vcs, I guess.

Something like 0+vcs20140212-1 would use the snapshoot as "upstream", while
allowing you to change the debian part, unlike a native package.

Using the ~ non-trivial system is not needed, since any release
version would be greater than "0" anyways.
Still, ~ shows it's a pre-release, so it makes sense too.

Just my noob 2 cents. ^^

Actually Germany has unusually strict requirements in this area. In
germany you are quite right that I can only build my campervan out of a
whitelist of TUEV-approved parts. In the UK I can build it out of
anything I damn well please (to a first approximation - there are
stricter requirements for the gas piping, for example). The testing
requirement is functionality-based, not on approved parts, which is a
very important distinction. Having built a campervan I am very happy
that I was doing it under the UK system. Apart from anything else it
made it a _lot_ cheaper.

I guess our views are coloured by cultural norms here. I was horrified
when I found out about the strictures German camper-builders have to put
up with. You apparently think they are reasonable.

I would be very surprised to find that 'most' countries follow the
German system, rather than the UK/US system, although there is a
worrying trend in that direction over time.

This is getting somewhat off-topic so to refer back to the context:

I don't object to systemd technically, but I am worried about the
world-view of some of its prominent proponents. By arguing the line you
have taken in this sub-thread I am afraid you are just re-inforcing that
bad impression.

No. You get a basic functionality, not all the features provided by
pulseaudio. And I, for one, could never get out of the box mixing of
audio streams when not using pulseaudio. I should have configured this
manually with esoteric writings in a non-existent file (not remove a
comment from a file). Go figure, listening to music and wanting a sound
when I receive a message is not default?

Could we move on from this subject? Unless you have a bug number to back
your affirmations with technical informations (and a date), this is not
useful.

Again. If these companies invest money into the development of their embedded

Really? Uninstalling Pulseaudio gives you a graphical interface for
moving streams of audio between devices? Uninstalling Pulseaudio gives
you software mixing of audio streams? Uninstalling Pulseaudio gives you
the ability to stream your audio across the network?

Well, yes, if you've done the work to set all that up externally to
Pulseaudio, then of course you don't need Pulseaudio(!)

So we, who are mostly freelancers and work on Debian *and* our jobs,
should do extra work in order to support sysvinit?
I don't think so... If you want something done, do it. But don't try
to get others to do it for you, unless you want to pay them.

systemd - getting started?

2014-02-12 Thread Iain R. Learmonth
Hi,

I liked sysv-rc for the same reason I still use my TI-89. I know how it
works and I know how to use it. I think I can see the merits of systemd
though.

It would be nice if someone could update the wiki with some links for
getting started though. At present, the wiki makes it look like systemd
is not ready for anything and is incredibly buggy. This probably isn't
helping.

Things that have been fixed should probably be removed from the wiki
page (they'd remain in the history of the page, so we don't lose them).

Things I'd like to see are:

 * A systemd primer (like what is a service file?)
 * Packaging documentation for systemd (some has been started [1])
 * How to hack together a service (this is something I did quite a lot
for homebrew scripts on servers)

There are probably other things that others would like to see too.

I can see a lot of enthusiastic systemd supporters on the list, so I'm
sure someone has the knowledge that I'm seeking.

If someone can even just provide a braindump I'll wikify it.

I'll be packaging a lightweight database system soon and I'm going to
need to know what to do about the init system scripts for it.

Sorry if this has already been covered, but this list has been so active
with argument lately that I may have missed it.

Thanks,
Iain.

  Why? I want to use debian as i used before - with a classic init. I like
debian in the form as it is now. You doesn't like it. May be _you_ should
use an another system, that meet your wishes?

Short version:

Why don't you just call it a day, and let me work on what I wish? What
is your problem with me working on it???

Longer version:

Part of why I work on OpenRC is because I find it fun, when I'm tired of
doing the OpenStack packaging (which is maybe 75% made of very
repetitive Python module packaging) and need recreation with my
computer. And doing so, I believe it's producing something useful, and
which seems to gather some interest (which is very hard to evaluate how
much), which is enough to motivate me.

That you don't believe in the technology is a well established point,
and we all got it. Nobody needs another occurrence of this. And the fact
that you don't find this work useful will not change *ANYTHING* to this
Adrian. Even with all what you wrote, you didn't succeed in destroying
the fun I have hacking OpenRC.

This is the first instance I see in Debian of someone trying to convince
another person to *not* work on something. Please give up trying to
convince me not to do what I do, I'm a grown up, and I can decide for
myself.

This is currently just an idea, but it's not implemented (and nobody has
yet stated intention to start implementing this). I honestly believe it
wouldn't be more than a few lines of C code (it doesn't seem hard to
change a loading path, right? hum... I'm sure it will be different when
looking at the actual code! :)), so it doesn't have my focus right away now.

Anyone is free to provide an alternative. There is a fork and it is
planned as an alternative. That GNOME depends on a dbus interface is
awesome. If you don't like it, write or fork an alternative
implementation! Canonical did.

For you, this example shows why "systemd" is bad, for me it shows that
actually doing stuff will change things and that it matters that you
aren't blocked into doing it. GNOME allows such work to happen. If that
work isn't done: nobody found it important enough yet.

Especially the "important enough": Loads of ideas, complaints, etc. Way
more than people doing things.

Kind of empty speak. In any distribution you have a small amount of
people who contribute loads of time. E.g. ctte people, etc. If they go
into a certain direction you can change things by providing
alternatives. You aren't forced in any way. It's a default and nobody is
preventing alternatives.

Since Jessie (at least) will still support sys5-rc, you both get what you
want, within Debian.  So what's the problem? Somebody will be "forced" to
manually install the init system of their choice? How sad(TM).

Snarkiness aside, IMHO it makes much more sense to have the most-featureful
init system be the default, because then those features actually get used
and tested -- and thus the situation will be more reliable than if only
those users/sysadmins switch to systemd who actually _are_ desperate for
its features (as opposed to, say, those who are skeptics but find that they
won't want to miss those selfsame features once they get used to them …).

Empty statement. He meant that market share means that loads of
attention will be given to systemd as well. You'll notice this by the
amount of contributors.

It's quite clear you don't like systemd. But "stability" is vague,
"technical beauty": CTTE determined code quality of both Upstart as well
as systemd is at the same level.

Market share correlates with user and developer interest, which correlates
with number of people who work on the program and find bugs and whatnot.
We *do* want an init system which doesn't wither away because upstream
loses interest or doesn't fix year-old fatal bugs, don't we?

So, in your opnion, everybody who works on their Debian packages on some
company's time+payroll should immediately stop doing it and leave the project?
You can't really mean that …

IMO, it's not, though I believe it is useless to discuss it with you.

My problem is your attitude. I don't have any problems to let you work
on what you want, as I said before, I appreciate your work. However,
I have a problem with how you reacted when it was clear that your
favored system would not be chosen as default. All kinds of accusations
against members of the TC ("OpenRC was not considered at all") and
being huffy like a little child that didn't get what he wanted [1].

My statement about letting go was about you accepting that the TC
has made up their minds, nothing else.

Then why on earth are you reiterating your points over and over again
and acted like that when you didn't get what you want? Just accept

I was *NOT* trying you to convince you to stop working on something,
you are putting words into my mouth that I never said. I said, you
should stop trying to push your opinion about what should be the
default init system when the committee has already made it's decision.

Dude, it was you who has been constantly posting on that topic, not
me. Look at the debian-ctte archives. You're - again - behaving
as if you're somewhat more important than I am. Don't be so
derogative and arrogant, it's utterly annoying. Especially when you say
WE as if you're talking for everyone else.

If you ask me to shut up about this discussion, then you yourself
should do it as well. Don't be such an hypocrite.

Please, Thomas, just stop discussing this topic and I will do so
as well. Please, for the sake of peace, ACCEPT that the TC has
made their choice and the choice was NOT OpenRC. And don't take
this as the message to stop working on what you like, but as the
message that the TC has made a decision and you should stop
questioning it. We seriously need to move on!

Again, I don't want to discuss this anymore.

there is various information available in the internet, on how to create
your own packages, see

and do a quick websearch for "debian packaging howto".

Agree, I explained various things already in the same thread. There are
indications of people who indicate they don't like the amount of email
and repeated discussions. I don't think it is too much to ask that if
you do participate, you at least read what was already written in this
thread. I'm totally fine to repeat otherwise: not everyone knows every
little detail, was aware of previous threads or remembers everything
that might have been discussed before.

Re: systemd - getting started?

2014-02-12 Thread Petr Baudis
  Hi!

  In fact, I installed systemd on my jessie system just yesterday.  So
far I filed two (not very major, promptly being dealt with) bugs and
after a lot of initial conservative scepticism, I'm quite excited
especially by journald. :)


  I found switching to systemd trivial by just following:

/usr/share/doc/systemd/README.Debian

After a reboot, I just played with various systemctl, journalctl and
loginctl commands to get a feeling of it.


  My first experience with a service file has been following


https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Systemd_FAQ#Q:_How_do_I_avoid_clearing_the_console_after_boot.3F

(note that on Debian, stock service files live in /lib/systemd, not
/usr/lib/systemd).


  My rsyslog prints all logs to /dev/tty12 and it continued to do that
just fine after a switch to systemd, but I decided I like the color
coding provided by journalctl and thus wrote my first systemd service
file that'll make journalctl run permanently on /dev/tty12, printing new
log entries. I described what I got (after 10 minutes, incl. reading
manual and debugging) on:

http://log.or.cz/?p=327
http://pasky.or.cz/dev/systemd/journal@tty12.service

  Hope that's useful,

Petr "Pasky" Baudis

This reads to me like a language-syntax mistake, one I've seen many

I take this "go ahead" for "yes, I accept the move".  While I would have
no problems with this I wonder if it is appropriate to simply go on here
without at least informing Debian Science and DebiChem who also maintain
some d/upstream files.  If I might have sounded against the move in the
past my main problem was that the affected parties were not included into
the decision making process.

So I have put the relevant mailing lists in CC to at least give people
lurking there some heads up and a slight chance to insist.

I would say:  If nobody will insist until after the weekend we might go
ahead.  And for the actual action I agree with Charles that I see no
problem if James would simply commit a change to Debian Med repositories
(SVN and Git).  That's fine and would save us (me or Charles) some work
and is perfectly possible permission-wise.

Kind regards

  Andreas.

PS: I think I did not got any answer to my question about further plans
for the debian/upstream/ dir.  I would be really happy to understand
the big picture to make sure we will not again invent something which
needs to be changed later on.

Telling me to shut up and using sentences like "we get it" while you
keep the right for yourself to continue arguing is derogative, arrogant
and hypocrite, yes.

Again, are you the listmaster or DPL or what? You continue to behave
that way, yet you claim those are insults.

You know that you did this before and you apologized to me in private.
If you like, I can post this mail to the public list. You said the exact
same things before and I have heard other Debian Developers who think
the same way about you.

Your problem is that you can't accept defeat. Again, just read your
own post:

Also, please count how often you posted to debian-ctte and how
often I posted to debian-ctte. That's why you're being hypocrite.

I believe I've seen that mentioned before, yes. and I'm certainly aware
of it now.

I was responding specifically to the question of "Why do you want your
log files in plain-text format?", which is orthogonal to the question of
whether systemd et al. support logging in such a format.

I'm talking about myself, because I'm my data point at hand, and because
I can't claim to speak for anyone else. This seems obvious enough that
it should not need to be stated.


I intentionally did not provide specifics, for several reasons,
including but probably not limited to:

* The exact nature of the things I find bad is not relevant to the
question of trust, which is what I wanted to point out, and what I
thought there might be value in discussing.

* I'm far from good at presenting the specifics in question, or at
advocating/arguing for them, and trying to do so anyway before an
actively unsympathetic audience would be stress I don't need.

* Specifics have been gone over many times, here and elsewhere,
including by people far better at presenting and arguing them than I am.
Going over them again would not help; I'm not going to succeed in
changing your mind about anything with them, you're extremely unlikely
to succeed in changing my mind about anything in response to them, and
such a change on one side or the other nothing would in fact change.

* It seemed quite likely that if specifics were brought up at all, the
conversation would be diverted to discussing those specifics, rather
than the question of trust which I was attempting to shine light on.


The specifics in my case take various forms, but in the end they all
boil down to a bare few principles. At bottom, this is a values
disagreement.

I value certain principles highly enough that I would reject some
decisions which the systemd project has (or very strongly appears to
have) taken. For the systemd project to have taken those decisions
demonstrates that they do not value those principles as highly as I do.

Thus, I cannot trust that project to place what I would consider to be
appropriate value on those principles when making future decisions.
Advising me to trust them anyway, without taking this disagreement about
the value of those principles into account, is not constructive.

(Exactly what those principles are, and/or what decisions I would have
rejected because of them, would indeed be necessary in a discussion
about trying to resolve that disagreement. However, I am not presently
trying to do that; I have essentially concluded that doing so either is
not possible, or at least would require more investment than I care to
devote. What I am trying to do is draw attention to the fact that the
disagreement really is about the value of principles, regardless of what
those principles are.)

Bug#738740: ITP: simplesnap -- Simple and powerful network transmission of ZFS snapshots

2014-02-12 Thread John Goerzen
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: John Goerzen 

* Package name: simplesnap
  Version : 1.0.0
  Upstream Author : John Goerzen 
* URL : https://github.com/jgoerzen/simplesnap
* License : GPL
  Programming Lang: bash
  Description : Simple and powerful network transmission of ZFS snapshots
 simplesnap is a simple way to send ZFS snapshots across a net‐
 work. Although it can serve many purposes, its primary goal is
 to manage backups from one ZFS filesystem to a backup filesystem
 also running ZFS, using incremental backups to minimize network
 traffic and disk usage.
 .
 simplesnap it is designed to perfectly compliment
 snapshotting tools, permitting rotating backups with arbitrary
 retention periods. It lets multiple machines back up a single
 target, lets one machine back up multiple targets, and keeps it
 all straight.
 .
 simplesnap is easy; there is no configuration file needed. One
 ZFS property is available to exclude datasets/filesystems. ZFS
 datasets are automatically discovered on machines being backed
 up.
 .
 simplesnap  is robust in the face of interrupted
 transfers, and needs little help to keep running.
 .
 nlike many similar tools, simplesnap does not
 require full root access to the machines being backed up. It
 runs only a small wrapper as root, and the wrapper has only three
 commands it implements.

Defeat? That says it all

If they have decided on systemd as default then I'd like to see the
published reasoning, though I am sure it would annoy me greatly.

The fragmentation of Linux (which includes cortex and blackfin
kernel support) has begun through an idea that was said to unite and
not divide and the benefits are negligible when you consider what
linux can already optionally do.

OpenRC is also more intuitive and easier to CLI and on install
scripts.

Promises of uniting leading to the opposite continues to repeat itself
through human history, it seems.

As said various times before regarding bugs: File a bug.

Your answer does not relate though. The comment was that pulseaudio does
not add any value. Your reply doesn't address this at all, just repeats
that there is a bug, that was established already. Without a bugreport
the bug will not be fixed any time soon. Same as that pulseaudio does
allow you to do lots of new things.

Need advice on building a package

2014-02-12 Thread Schlacta, Christ
So I'm working on backporting enlightenment e17 from jessie to wheezy since
my request to backports went unanswered. Anyway, I believe I've found out
why.

Enlightenment is comprised of about a dozen packages, each of which depends
on the previous having been built and installed beforehand. And none of
them are in wheezy by default.

I've had mostly success so far, but I hope to get the process mostly
automated using pbuilder. That's where I'm stuck.

I don't know how to handle this complex dependency of each package on
previous packages in the complex build process

Is there some guide for this somewhere? Some specific search term I should
use? This step has me completely stumped.

Thanks in advance!

Keep building all packages in a loop, remove the package from the loop
when it has been built, repeat. The order of the loop barely matters.

The problems are that programs are build-dependencies of libraries
which have -dev packages which are build-dependencies of programs.
There are tools which can identify dependency loops, but for a single
run, it is just as effective to try everything, rebuild everything which
broke and repeat, repeat, repeat.

  Who nows what will be in the future... Here some men talk about cost of
simultaneous support of many init systems. So, in the future default init
system may stay stable and working, but alternative ones no.

That's not quite the problem. Insofar as I can tell, all the dependencies
form a nice pretty tree.

I just need the output from each package to build the next, and I'm looking
for an automated way to do that in pbuilder

Most people simply want to play audio, no streaming, no stream moving,

I have a USB soundcard. If I power it on pulseaudio doesn’t recognize it 
or only the analog output (I want to use the digital output). I have to 
restart pulseaudio (even with the current version in Debian Testing).


And now guess what is always working? Right, Alsa. If necessary it takes

So why should I use pulseaudio?

This is assuming that either:

  1) This is not going to be tested in Debian
  2) systemd is not production quality


I don't think 1 is fair, seeing as how quite a few DDs (who are OK with
doing this change early and fine with being a beta tester, such as
myself) have been testing it for a while.

I also don't think 2 is fair, seeing as how it's enabled by default on
Arch, Fedora, OpenSUSE, RHEL (7, before that is upstart), CoreOS and a
few other derivitives (tanglu, siduction).

Perhaps you're interested in helping "beta test" it in unstable to
ensure your stable use-case works? (If not, that's cool too, just
offering to offer.)

Sure but perhaps you could save me the trouble to say if there is a
general outline of the factors that the decision made was based upon
perhaops somewhere in the ctte mailing list archive. Or a round up
published before voting.

Don't tell me it was just a vote with licensing issues being taken by

Yes, as far as I recall all TC members have explained their reasoning 
quite thoroughly.

The link above does have a 'see  for discussion'.
People have said why they have voted what they voted.

Technical reasons seems to have been the primary driver behind it,
though a bit 'how healthy does the project seem to be' has also been
involved.

Licensing was mentioned, but I don't have the impression that it was
neither primary nor secondary concerns.

You might want to look at the E18 situation because many of the

build them all at once. I had some previous attempts to make E17 debs
and the number of dependencies is pretty overwhelming. E18 made it a

There was adoption of DEP-12 outside of Debian Med and also outside

Hi Paul,

why not fixing devscripts instead ?  Uscan is the tool that is broken, and it
would take two minutes to fix it.  Sorry, but the burden of the work should be
on the shoulders of the one who did not check the archive contents before
starting to use a file used by others.

Bigger plans can be considered but should not be a burden to the people doing
the work currently.  This said (again), the time I can give to Debian is
unfortunately shrinking, and somebody is free to step up and replace me fully
in this “upstream metadata” project.  This is very welcome as well.  I am
lagging on other projects (mime-support, DEP website, etc.) and would love to
have more time to dedicate to them.

I encourage volunteers to even consider move the things one level up in scope
and quality, for instance by making an awesome plugin for the “next PTS”, which
will solve the problem of “debian/upstream” as a file entirely.

But as long as there are no such contributions, I see these suggestions of
increasing the complexity of our tools as welcome as the suggestion to patch
GNOME to work with Upstart, to say it bluntly.

James wrote “If all you're concerned about is moving the files in the
repositories, I'll gladly do that”.  Can we please let him do what he promised
instead of discouraging him ?

Have a nice day,

Thank you for the suggestion, but I'm strictly attempting to stick to
backporting packages from Jessie to maintain upgradability later.

I'm sure this isn't the right way to do it, but I put up the tarballs
and dscs and a couple pages that link to them.

http://www.vin-dit.org/~jholland/tarballs.html

http://www.vin-dit.org/~jholland/dscs.html

You have to build them (and install after building) in the order given
at enlightenment.org due to dependencies. 

Advice on how to do this right would be welcome!

Would this be useful? This would enable you to use packages built as
build-dependencies for next packages. Naturally, you should update the
build-dependencies as well to use the backported ones.

Re: Need advice on building a package

2014-02-12 Thread Jeff Epler
If you have a local apt repository (e.g., with dput and mini-dinstall),
then after building each package you would install it to your local
repo.  (typical commandline: dput local packagename*.changes) If
properly configured, pbuilder can look at the local apt repository and
pick up the -dev dependencies that were just built in the previous
step(s)

Initially setting up dput with mini-dinstall is documented, though I
didn't take the time to google up a tutorial for you.

Best of luck.

Ow, that bug.  Ow.

I don't have anywhere *near* enough information about the background,
situation, and software involved to even hazard a guess as to the best
approach.  But ow.

I thought you were smarter and would understand you went too far and
should stop. Though if the only way to stop your insults is to go to the
DPL or the listmaster, I believe I wont even have to do it myself (I
don't think I should anyway, since I'm involved): someone else will be
upset by your wording in a public Debian list and will report you.

You will have a hard time convincing anyone that saying that someone is
"derogative, arrogant, utterly annoying, hypocrite and dishonest" is not
insulting.

I have *no problem* with it, or anything else. I don't think I have lost
anything, or that there's even a "defeat". The above sentence is very
silly, because it paints a very wrong picture of what happened. I
accepted OpenRC wouldn't be taken as default even before it happened. If
you think that's what I wrote, then you miss-interpreted.

>> https://lists.debian.org/debian-ctte/2014/01/msg00340.html

What lead me to write was that:
- bdale wrote to me that he didn't evaluate OpenRC
- Russ wrote wrong statements on public list or blogs (I can't remember
which one it was, I believe it was his blog)
- Don stated he didn't spent much time with it or something similar

So, because this was a repeated pattern, I posted that message. I asked
for the TC to properly evaluate OpenRC, and explain why it wouldn't be
the choice.

I was very pleased by Ian Jackson's technical response, which helps us
for our (future) development. I don't see anything wrong in that, and I
believe what I asked for was legitimate.

> Also, please count how often you posted to debian-ctte and how

I tried to not post too much in this bug, and let the TC do its work. I
posted 10 messages to #727708, out of which 5 were talking about the
current status of OpenRC, which I believe was appreciated by the TC (at
least bdale seemed happy of these messages). In these messages, I wasn't
talking about anything else.

I have counted around 43 messages from Josselin Mouette, why don't you
complain about him posting too much? (note: I took Joss as a random
example, and I have no problem with him posting on the TC bug...)

Besides this, I'm the person behind the proposal of OpenRC, and there
was some direct inquiries, so I don't think 10 messages is a lot. You
can also see that Russ seemed happy about the corrections I contributed
to his statements, since he didn't evaluate OpenRC properly either (at
least at the beginning, not sure later on). Bdale also seemed pleased
with the reported status about Hurd support and so on.

Gosh, why do I even have to justify myself... This is crazy. Adrian,
look at the posts from Olav & Didier. I think they are representative of
the fact that your personal attacks toward me, leading to what I wrote
above, is of very little interest to anyone.

Yet, if you are again repeating the same pattern, your next move will
be: coming back after your insults, posting some more (why not, since
the listmasters accepted the previous ones?), then more critics of what
I do or did which will include wrong statement and reality distortion,
and then writing "hey, I already wrote that we should stop... it's not
me who don't want to stop".

That's not the way you get to a more relaxed atmosphere. Pushing me to
justify myself on my behavior isn't the way to go either. If you are
sending direct attacks publicly, don't you think it's to be expected
that I reply to public accusations?

I'm not asking you to stop discussing here, even about the init system.
I've asked you to stop your insult and direct attacks toward me in
public lists. This leads to nowhere, and annoys everyone.

Thomas
