Hello!
I have a package to test for security, license, and debian rules.
How to upload?
Do I have to change control file?
I think It must be put in project/test but how, just uploading it to
there?

Hi,
I'm trying to virtualize in.telnetd to access a chrooted virtual server
(using tcp_wrappers' twist option and Wietse's chrootuid utility).
Everything works just fine until the in.telnetd from chrooted location is
execed. It tries to allocate a pty (via openpty() call), but receives an
ENOENT

instead.
However there is no uploading them. Why?

The files /usr/lib/libblas.{a,so} are in both packages. Since
lapack-dev was there first, blas1-dev should not use this name. On the
other hand, I like the separation of blas in a separate package. The
lapack maintainer doesn't care about the lapack packages
