Package: release-notes Severity: normal After the upgrade from stretch to buster on a NIS server it was no longer possible to log into NIS client machines. While the buster release notes warn that this can be caused by a change in ypbind, it turned out that rpcinfo can also cause this. However, this is only mentioned in rpcbind's NEWS and not in the release notes.
It would be nice if the buster release notes mentioned this as well. I have prepared a proposed change in a merge request on salsa: https://salsa.debian.org/ddp-team/release-notes/merge_requests/58 Questions: - Is it still possible to add such changes to the release notes for point releases, or should this information go somewhere else? - The new '-r' option is only available since the second point release (10.2). Should this be mentioned? - The proposed release notes change mentions that this option is debian-specific. Is this something that should be mentioned or dropped?
