Re: Software Verlag/"Debian GNU/Linux"
Hi, this is a help request from a IT publisher who wants to release a special edition related to "Debian GNU/Linux". The journal "hakin9-Abwehrmethoden" covers IT-Security. Anna asks for help to create articles for this issue which I redirect to debian-publicity. Hallo Anna, die meisten der angeschriebenen Mailinglisten sind englischsprachig, so dass ich es deswegen nochmal kurz Englisch erklärt habe. Bitte wende dich doch an die Liste debian-publicity (see http://lists.debian.org/debian-publicity/2006/11/). Ich weiß nicht wie viele Personen diese Liste lesen, ein gleichzeitiges Schreiben auf viele Listen ist aber keine gute Idee. Welche Hilfe wird denn genau benötigt? Rat und Hilfe oder fertige Artikel? Bitte antworte nur an debian-publicity, Danke.

So I'm I sorted this list manually for debiandoc-sgml-doc and noticed that only a pdf.gz document differs in size. This is probably related to the fact that the PDF contains the build date and the compression ratio differs (20kB). > wondering if you could send me the file lists in some sorted order or if > there is some tool to compare packages directly? Something simple as sort with option --key=POS1[,POS2] applied to the package list should do what you want ... Jens -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

You can use the jigdo files such as debian-40r2-i386-DVD-1.jigdo from http://www.debian.co.il/debian-cd/4.0_r2/i386/jigdo-dvd/ or http://ftp.pwr.wroc.pl/debian-iso/4.0_r1/i386/jigdo-dvd/debian-40r1-i386-DVD-1.jigdo to extract this information. jigdo files are just gzipped text files. At least for the 4.0 release you should be able to find jigdo files ... I think I can send you also some older releases such as Woody in a private mail. Have to dig ...

There are many subprojects listed such as * DDP (especially the Debian FAQ) * DDTP (package descriptions) * Website * Programs * Debconf templates (only a few are still untranslated) I suggest you help Benjamin updating the FAQ.

This page contains: "Or install the current weekly snapshot of Debian testing which uses the same version of the installer as the last release:" The last release was Debian Etch so I assumed that weekly snapshots contain an older (but more stable?) version of the installer. But it seems that "release" refers to an Installer and not a Debian release? (Even if this is clarified I'm not sure that everyone considers beta2 as a release but maybe only as a release snapshot or a test version (because of "beta")). Please clarify this! I tried to address this recently in http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2008/09/msg00692.html but it seems I failed.

Re: dists/etch/Release.gpg missing from DVD images

You need the APT option APT::Authentication::TrustCDROM "true"; Debian Installer adds this since Sarge in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/00trustcdrom IIRC. Nevertheless there is no way I know to have this working also with CD/DVD image files instead of using CD/DVDs registered with apt-cdrom. And I also noticed during my last upgrade that unsigned packages provided via loopback devices are ignored if another APT source with signed packages (even from a very slow network mirror) are available.
