But Fedora, whose policies Richard Fontana helped to shape over the years, considers OpenSSL to be a library covered by the system library exception. In practice, the FSF seems to agree with this interpretation (for the GPLv2) because Microsoft Services for UNIX links GPL software such as GCC against a proprietary libc which is part of the same software package, and I don't think the FSF has even tried to stop them. (This libc is BSD-derived and not the Windows kernel or something like that, it is an intermediate layer.) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Debconf code for getting usernames list
Hi, I am the maintainer of the kismet package and on installation time I need to ask for the user to specify which users should go in the kismet group, which is used in order to avoid running kismet as root. Currently [1] this is done like this : addgroup --quiet --system $GROUP db_get kismet/install-users if [ "$RET" != "" ]; then for x in ${RET}; do usermod -a -G $GROUP $x done fi My problem is that sometimes the users might specify a wrong list (comma-separated instead of space-separated, a typo in the username, etc). This means that the usermod command will fail and actually this will be shown as an error (code 6) in the installation of the package. What is the proper way to check that each member of the $RET list is a valid username and if not prompt the user to specify a new correct list?

Thanks Ftpmaster for all your hard work with the Moonshot Suite
Hi. back in 2011, I gave a talk at Debconf about the value of Debian to people hoping to put together changes across an operating system. I was using my work in Project moonshot as an example; we've been looking at integrating new security services throughout an operating system. Debian has been really great for that because it's easy to modify and easy to add new components, to use it both as a lab environment and a stable system. Today, with the acceptance of moonshot-gss-eap, we have all our softhware in Debian unstable. There are a few patches to other things running around getting in shape, and lots of polishing and future development. However, I want to take a moment to thank ftpmaster for their hard work over the last month doing the "new" review for the Moonshot suite. Some of the packages were complex and pulled code from a lot of places. In preparing to get all the packaging in shape for submission I talked to a couple of FTP assistants at Debconf this year. I'd always been confused why the new queue processing took so long. As I learned what was involved, I realized that actually given the thorough review that is done, it's amazing that new queue takes as short of a time as it does. I also realized that we get a huge and valuable service out of this work,. It's valuable to our users who care about free software and the DFSG, as well as everyone who cares about making sure that Debian is redistributable and legal.

Re: GPL-3 & openssl: provide a -nossl variant for a library

We discussed this on #faif[1] and: Richard Fontana says the OpenSSL-system library exception thing is misattributed to him and he addressed this quite directly in his FOSDEM talk last February. He had no other comments. https://archive.fosdem.org/2014/schedule/event/licensecompat/ Bradley Kuhn says that for GPLv2-only works Debian should not consider OpenSSL to be a system library but for works where the GPLv3 can apply, SSL/TLS is likely a "Standard Interface" and thus subject to the "System Library" exception. 1.
