Bug#981805: debian-installer: mkfs.xfs failed due to missing libinih.so.1

2021-02-03 Thread Andrew Brouwers
Package: debian-installer Version: 20201202 I tried install debian testing, using the weekly d-i image (nonfree). All went as expected, until I got to the partitioning section. Trying to format a partition as xfs failed. I changed to tty, and when running mkfs.xfs by hand, I received an error m

Bug#979237: qalculate-gtk: Consider version update

2021-01-04 Thread Andrew Brouwers
Package: qalculate-gtk Version: 2.8.2-1 I've become a big user of qalculate-gtk; in testing the version in Experimental, I've encountered a couple of bugs that were fixed in newer versions of the app. It would be great to have a newer version in experimental (or, possibly merged to sid/testing).

2020-12-28 Thread Andrew Brouwers
Package: firefox Version: 84.0-3 On an archlinux system, I noticed the ability to right click the firefox desktop entry, and have both "new window" and "new incognito window." This appears to be achieved in their .desktop file: https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-packages/blob/packages/firefox

Hello, I've just tested this on 3.36, and it seems to work fine without e-d-s. To test, I did a quick: $ dpkg -r --force-depends evolution-data-server evolution-data-server-common After restarting gnome-session, the desktop worked without issue, and no e-d-s processes were started. It seems th

2015-01-11 Thread Andrew Brouwers
Package: gnome-shell Version: 3.14.2-3+b1 I recently replaced an arch linux installation with debian jessie; after installing gnome, I noticed that ram usage was a bit higher than I was accustomed to. The biggest difference seemed to be the overhead from evolution-data-server, which is pretty hig

Package: debian-installer Version: 20150107 I've tried using each beta2 + a daily image (from 20150109) to install debian on a laptop, which already had partitions in place. This includes an EFI partition, which was formatted on a previous distribution using "mkfs.fat -F32 /dev/foo" During insta

Package: transmission-gtk Looking at remaining packages on my gnome install that dep on gconf, transmission appears to be the final piece. Looking at the configure script from upstream, it appears as though the use of gconf is completely a debianism, via: transmission-gtk.gconf-defaults Is it p

2012-04-02 Thread Andrew Brouwers
Package: transmission-gtk Version: 2.50-1 Severity: wishlist Hi, As wheezy will ship with gnome-3, it might be nice to have transmission built using the native GTK3 interface. It seems like a couple other projects (example, gnome-mplayer) in wheezy/sid have started preferring the GTK3 interface,

Hello, Any chance the new package can get uploaded, even if the new man pages aren't ready? Overall, 0.10 and 0.11 had some nice improvements over 0.9, and it's really be a nice update for squeeze, I'd think. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject

Bug#589069: lighter-weight package alternative

2010-07-22 Thread Andrew Brouwers
The killers seem to be the video / gstreamer items, and a few extras from gnome integration. As it's one of the best (and only) applications of this nature; with kopete and empathy being pretty tied to the DE's, pidgin is a great candidate for light-weight installations. However, these deps, of 1
