Please note that I'm only announcing this on debian-devel as I expect
we'll probably want to tweak a few things before normal users actually
get their hands on these.
I've uploaded the first cut at the new a.out and ELF development
packages to ftp.debian.org. Only the binary (.deb) and diff files
> includes should conflict with source
It used to be that way, but it unfortunately was a _tremendous_ pain in
the neck. The problem is that "dpkg" won't let you replace "includes"
with "source" without first removing _every_package_ that depends on
them. This means you have to remove the _entire_

Setting:
X11, rxvt, $TERM=linux, ~/.gitrc.linux a copy of /usr/lib/git/term/.gitrc.xterm
Problem:
The color selection from /usr/lib/git/term/.gitrc.common works well on the
console, but not so in a rxvt---object files appear blue on blue and are
invisible
I have uploaded the context diff for e2fsprogs-1.01-1.diff.gz to
ftp.debian.org:

Note that I accidentally uploaded the same file as e2fsprogs-1.01.diff.gz:
that file should be deleted.

I don't know if this is a real bug, but it drives me buggy.
The O'Reilly X Windows SA Guide for X11 r4 and r5 (I don't have
one for r6) says:
Setting the terminal type, however, is not required for xterm
windows. The xterm client has its own way of deali
Package: dpkg
I created a symbolic link on my CD /binary -> /debian/debian-0.93/binary
so that "dselect" would be able to find the binary directory as soon as
it started. Unfortunately, the "disk" access method says there are no
packages in "/binary", but it finds packages in "/binary/." . To fix

Package: trn
Version: 3.6-2
Pnews with this version of trn creates dead.article world readable -
however, the article may contain sensitive information.
Similarly, dead.letter is also world readable. I haven't tracked down
_exactly_ what creates it, but it seems likely that mail or mailx
does.

The dpkg package provides md5sum, but doesn't give any documentation
for it.

Hi..
Just wondering through some man pages I noticed ttytype.5. The manual page
points to a configuration file located at /etc/ttytype, though this file
doesn't exist. Should this exist at all? It configures a tty's terminal
emulation (from the termcap) - Just w
Package: pari
Version: 1.39
Revision: 3
/usr/doc/pari/user-manual doesn't have global execute permissions on
that directory, so it's hard to read the docs as a user.
This is under debian 0.93R6, kernel 1.2.13, and libc 4.6.27.

It is very easy to confuse ncftp into refusing to allow ^Z to suspend
the process.
One way I have done this follows (hard to represent visual mode, sorry):

> cd /debian/debian-1.0/source
Now ^Z won't suspend the session
