I request assistance with maintaining the tex4ht and tex4ht-common
packages (which are generated out of the same source package).
The package description is:

Hello debian-devel,
please CC because i am not subscribed!
Yesterday i did a dist-upgrade on an etch system. Most of the
packages were installed and configured correct but some failed with
this error:

Just to let you know that the 32-bit version of
xemacs-21.4.19-gnome-canna-wnn doesn't crash in a 32-bit etch chroot.
Things like this make amd64 seem to be in need of a lot of work.

This looks very likely to be a disk problem. FWIW, it's calling fsync(2)
on that file.

Did you do "fsck -f", or just "fsck"? In case you did the latter, please
run it with -f again.

Hi all,
yesterday, I failed to login svn.debian.org with ssh.
I was asked Passwd and input the correct passwd (as far
as I remembered) three times but failed.
I was given my first passwd in 2001/01 and it was changed
in 2003/12/16 (perhaps because of compromise of Debian servers).
