Cannot reply so sorry for breaking the thread.
How should the upgrade in sid work? At least aptitude does not find
a working upgrade path from -57 to -58 ...

Hi,
One of the features missing in upstart that is present in
sysvinit is that the latter loads SELinux security policy early in the
boot sequence, and the former does not (please correct me if this is not
the case). I would be happy to help integrate selinux into upstart,
if that is

Dear all
I recently posted bug #545127 (see [1]) as I noticed that the package
`publican' stores some shared files in /usr/share/Publican/ but stores
its documentation in /usr/share/doc/publican/.
As an end user, I expected /usr/share/publican/, given that the
package name is `publican'.
However

I would not recommend having os-prober installed for this. os-prober has
always been intended to be run only _once_, mostly when a new system is
installed. It exists as a .deb to be used for example after a debootstrap
