Michael, that was not a personal attack. I am in no doubt that you personally try to help. The statistics for this list, however, are public record. And they are indeed of concern. Like so many open source projects, Debian is clearly showing a loss of community, and whilst it continues to be

Re: systemd may silently break your system!

I had already removed the symlink and migrated sysctl.conf to 99-sysctl.conf and it appears Debian deleted that file as well. On Fri, Jul 26, 2024 at 9:00 AM Vincent Lefevre wrote: > > The /etc/sysctl.d/99-sysctl.conf symlink has been removed > (currently in unstable) *without any announcement*,

Strange behavior of ifupdown package

Hi. Sorry, i cant help with your specific problem. Just didn't want you to feel alone... I don't know whats becoming of Debian these days. Users need to stick together,  but the traffic stats for these lists paint a bleak picture. The attitude these days seems to be that 'if its not in bugz
