I don't see what would be the problem with:
- tracking problems using a BTS pseudo-package
- maintaining the tooling (debuerreotype) on salsa
- mirroring the tooling to github, if that's a requirement
- maintaining the metadata in
  https://github.com/docker-library/official-images/blob/master/library/debian
  using github (which means that only the "release" process involves
  github)

There are Debian installations on filesystems that are incompatible with 
overlayfs, for example xfs without d_type.

I ran into this while trying to get rid of aufs.

Re: NMU for Imagemagick?

Personally I prefer the drop-in replacement GraphicsMagick, which is
also more recent in Debian. Maybe you should migrate your ImageMagick
needs to GraphicsMagic?

So we need to document this problem in the release notes.  That's an
easy task.

Is it still truth that one can't add d_type to an existing xfs of
ftype=0, or is there nowadays some kind of conversion utilities I never
heard of (yet) to migrate from ftype=0 to ftype=1?

Re: isc-dhcp-client sends DHCPDISCOVER *before* wpa_supplicant authenticates/associates/connects.

Yes, that's a long-standing issue.

The difficulty is that the ISC client is written to be very portable, and
there is no common interface for a program to be notified of interface
status changes, so implementing this properly would require larger changes
in both the client and the underlying support libraries that are shared
with the ISC DHCP server, the ISC DHCP relay and the ISC bind nameserver.

A less portable or featureful client has a greater chance of supporting
this directly.

Bug#963984: ITP: ruby-sys-proctable -- Ruby interface for gathering process informatio

2020-06-29 Thread Valentin Vidic
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Valentin Vidic 

* Package name: ruby-sys-proctable
  Version : 1.2.5
  Upstream Author : Daniel J. Berger 
* URL : https://github.com/djberg96/sys-proctable
* License : Apache-2.0
  Programming Lang: Ruby
  Description : Ruby interface for gathering process informatio

The sys-proctable library provides an interface for gathering information
about processes on your system, i.e. the process table. Most major
platforms are supported and, while different platforms may return
different information, the external interface is identical across
platforms.

This library is required as a dependency for the new version of the
sonic-pi package. The package will be maintained in the ruby-team
group on Salsa.

Some more details (or even better, suggested wording) would be much 
appreciated, just in case none of the Release Notes editors are familiar 
with XFS and 'd_type'.

Kind regards,

I was only able to take a a quick look at your tool and description and it
certainly expanded my todo list.

thanks

p.s.
It seems to me that there are two major views of package building, which do not
necessary result in two compatible lists of requirements:

1. Repetitive build/develop/test of a single package for all potential distros
(i.e. requires interaction with sources and build environment for comfortable
debugging, ...).

2. Massive build/test of all relevant packages of a single distro (i.e.
prohibits any external access - maximal isolation required).

FWIW, I’d welcome such change, (almost) whatever name end up being used
instead of “master”. If we agree on such change and decide to address it
on our repositories before the rest of the community, and then later,
another name become the de facto standard, I don’t care that we end up
having to change another way around in the following years.

One or two changes in a few years laps of time is what we’ve been used
to in the last ten years anyway (be it internal Alioth changes, or the
recent salsa move). For once, I’d be happy to address such change for
“human” reasons, rather than being forced to for technical ones.

I took a quick look at deno and it's dependency tree. It looks like a
huge number of dependencies have been packaged by the Debian Rust team
already, with many more to go.

Due to deno being released on crates.io, thus making it easy to use
debcargo tooling and integrate with our debcargo-conf repo, I would like
to invite you to coordinate with the Rust team. We're happy to support
you regarding packaging.

We're active in #debian-rust on irc.freenode.net, and have a less active
mailing list at pkg-rust-maintain...@alioth-lists.debian.net. Feel free
to join us there.

Best regards,
Wolfgang.
