Bug#637110: invoke-rc.d varnish status should exit non-zero unless daemon running

2011-08-08 Thread Daniel Barlow
Package: varnish Version: 3.0.0-4 Severity: normal It Would Be Nice If /etc/init.d/varnish were to adopt the convention (as seen in /etc/init.d/skeleton and many other packages) that "status" returns a non-zero exit code if the daemon is not running. This would enable the presence of varnish to b

Bug#612683: "zenity --notification --listen" never quits

Bug#560111: Please package newer snapshot of portaudio (for everyone)

2010-01-23 Thread Daniel Barlow
I second the request. Portaudio 19+svn20071022 in Debian defaults to OSS, which means that a portaudio program cannot run at the same time as anything else that uses sound. This was changed upstream in 2008 to use ALSA http://music.columbia.edu/pipermail/portaudio/2008-March/008571.html -d

Bug#509733: This bug is also present in xen-linux-system-2.6.26-1-xen-amd64

2009-02-23 Thread Daniel Barlow
This bug is also present in xen-linux-system-2.6.26-1-xen-amd64. Or at least, the symptoms are very similar (Radeon X xerver fails to start, and causes dmesg output) and the test program mmap-mem fails identically This makes X incompatible with xen, at least on my machine. I don't know if it

Bug#501301: libaudio-flac-decoder-perl: source package contains proprietary flac file?

2007-09-25 Thread Daniel Barlow
Package: acpid Version: 1.0.6-1 Severity: normal acpid logs frequently and voluminously when my laptop is on battery power, which means the disk never has a chance to spin down. In older versions I used the -l command line in /etc/default/acpid to redirect it to a ramdisk, but that is no lon
