Hi, I went through the RC bug list and collected Bugs with trivial patches and sorted them a bit. They realy don't need much work so if you have a minute pick one. If you want to NMU any of them check the then currently claimed bugs (url under claimed bugs).
So here we go: g++-3.3 fixes: -------------- The same problem comes up again and again, allways the same fix. #196324 xosview: FTBFS with g++-3.3: strstream.h is gone #195527 mysql++: FTBFS with g++-3.3: Missing <cassert> include #200071 zhcon: FTBFS with g++-3.3: Missing #include <cassert> #202032 rumba-manifold: FTBFS with g++-3.3: Missing #include <cassert> #196450 simplecdrx: FTBFS with g++-3.3: Missing <cassert> include #196533 transcalc: FTBFS with gcc-3.3: Uses multiline strings #197214 libggi: FTBFS with gcc-3.3: Uses multiline strings #195577 libnids: FTBFS with gcc-3.3: Uses multiline strings (wrong pending tag) #197762 nte: FTBFS with gcc-3.3: Uses multiline strings #198317 pimppa: FTBFS with gcc-3.3: Uses multiline strings #197002 smpeg-xmms: FTBFS with gcc-3.3: configure test uses multiline strings #193067 rust: FTBFS: g++ 3.2 errors #198113 stardict: FTBFS with g++-3.3 #190942 tcl-sql: FTBFS: g++ 3.2 errors Perl touched: ------------- One involves perl and the other patch is for pelr code, knowing a bit perl might be good. #204859 FTBFS (unstable/m68k): perl makes abiword fails to build, bad C++ #185479 html2ps generates no output Other easy stuff: ----------------- Bits and pieces #190260 Segmentation fault on alpha #184885 LSB 1.3 test suite failures #196149 mkswap creates invalid swap files #196850 wall is being distributed under wrong license #102675 libggi2-dev: should provide static archives #204456 libjdom-java: Wrong build-dep: does not need xalan2 nor saxon #203750 log4cpp: FTBFS: `long long' error #203823 gnuyahoo: FTBFS: automake error #203973 ext2resize: FTBFS: Automake error Stuff that should be looked over and tested first: -------------------------------------------------- Those patches have some impact on the packages or arent so clear cut #192545 pcb: Fails to build with current flex #194168 preferences: FTBFS with gobjc-3.3: #import is obsolete #194164 preferences-app: FTBFS with gobjc-3.3: #import is obsolete #191197 rats: Fails to build with current flex #166737 snmpkit: FTBFS with gcc 3.2 #173762 FTBFS: Build failure of haddock on i386 #167054 FTBFS: Build failure of xview on i386 M68k related: ------------- #201903 xt: (m68k/unstable) FTBFS Upload MIA: ----------- An upload was promised but the promised time has passed since #191199 savant: FTBFS: g++ 3.2 errors Claimed Bugs: ------------- Claimed bugs as on http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/claims.cgi Also look at master:/org/bugs.debian.org/bugsquash/claims/ #166865 librudiments0_0.24-2(unstable/ia64): FTBFS: missing config.sub? #192189 luxman: FTBFS: g++ 3.2 errors #195064 vlan: FTBFS with gcc-3.3: Uses multiline strings #196313 xdkcal: FTBFS with gcc-3.3: Uses multiline strings #196579 pretzel: FTBFS with g++-3.3: strstream.h is gone #197262 vflib3: Builds broken package with gcc-3.3 (uses varargs.h) #198831 tac-plus: FTBFS with gcc-3.3: Uses multiline strings #204483 Bashisms in init.d/oftpd Bugs pending uploads: --------------------- Those should be fixed already. #198333 legos: FTBFS with gcc-3.3: Uses multiline strings #195157 mps: FTBFS with gcc-3.3: Invalid preprocessor pasting #195546 poppassd: FTBFS with gcc-3.3: Uses obsolete varargs.h #196463 wordinspect: FTBFS with gcc-3.3: Uses multiline strings #195017 prips: FTBFS with gcc-3.3: Uses multiline strings #199279 gtop: FTBFS with gcc-3.3: Invalid preprocessor pasting #199280 gkrellongrun: FTBFS: Cannot find gkrellm binary Thats it, more coming. MfG Goswin PS: you can drop me a _private_ mail if you have more or fixed something. PPS: Please don't reply to this mail saing that bug <XYZ> is foobar, use the bts. PPPS: I didn't check timestamps on all bugs and floow-ups, some might be even from today.
