So, are you going to help us kill spam (reporting > it) or no time for this? So you're Debian's Mr. Antispam, my humble apologies. What I am missing on your statitics page is when statistics started and spam/ham ratio over all postings, not only reviewed ones or did I oversee sth? Moreover monthly summaries to judge current situation preferrably with graphics (cf webalizer statistics) would be a plus. I can only speak about what I received on 20+ mailing list (mostly non-Debian) during the last month. Current spam ratio is quite acceptable for me ( <10 out of >500 per day including personal mail ), it's a single keystroke to move spam to a special folder that is fed to spamprobe train-spam hourly. I can live with the current situation. Finally, if you want me to help on anything Debian related, nag DAM to reopen my account (which one you can deduce from my gpg key). Being a DD from '95 to '04, I won't do any substantial work on Debian without a vote.

I guess there is no real concern there as glibc/gcc maintainers are mainly working on that architectures. So porter requirements can be waived, IMHO. However there should be port maintainers for the others and I see some lacking in that regard.

Bug#539944: RFH: logcheck / also an idea for a logcheck rewrite
Package: wnpp Severity: normal We could use help with logcheck, specifically: - bug triaging, which is mainly updating rule files - bug fixing of features and faults - implementing templates for rules, e.g. @IPADDR@ and refactoring the rule files so that there aren't seven dozens different regexps for IP addresses - improving the performance and usefulness * only process filters for packages that are installed * find a way to avoid the multipass approach logcheck currently takes The package is maintained with Git, but there are no branches, so use is trivial. If you're interested, please pass me your alioth.debian.org account so that I can give you commit access. * * * In the long run, I'd love to see a rewrite of logcheck with some of the following features: - tag-based, so that an admin can choose whether to see e.g. daemon restart messages, authentication attempts for invalid/nonexistent accounts, etc. - runs as a daemon and can process new log entries instantly. - possibly interfaces directly with rsyslog to avoid having to go via log files - configurable actions, e.g. mail, jabber, file, postgresql - provide patterns/templates and easy instructions (possibly automatic filter generators) to encourage package maintainers to provide the files themselves. - possibly require message samples with each filter to allow for a test suite. - and many more. Please send further ideas to this bug report. Talk to me if you're interested in this, and I'd be happy to assist.

Attached is an example converting it to yaml with python table generation, coping with waivers. I've made it automatically classify any arch with any failures as "at risk", rather than letting it remain listed as a candidate. It'd probably be better to have any warnings imply "at risk" and any failures come pretty close to meaning "no", though... Anyway, have a look, see what you think. It'd be really nice to have all the buildd criteria be measurable (and then automated). One idea might be to change "fast security" and "redundancy" into speed/load measures, something like: alpha amd64 armels390 buildd-speed 95%100% 50%113% (%ge of i386/amd64) buildd-load 55% 60% 95% 20% n-buildds 2 3 6 1 idle-buildds 0.9 1.2 0.3 0.8 where speed is calculated as the overall average of: time-to-build-on-$ARCH / time-to-build-on-i386/amd64 (ie, dpkg takes 20s to build on alpha, versus 13s to build on i386 after and amd64+source upload would give 154%) load is the percentage of time on average that each buildd is actually building something, and idle-buildds is "n-buildds * (1 - buildd-load)". Release criteria are then something like "buildd-speed >= 50%", "idle-buildds >= 1".

I originally filed the bug that got FireGPG removed from Lenny, and I just wanted to say that I absolutely support its reintroduction to the archive. FireGPG was removed because the old version had security flaws and it was too late in the Lenny release cycle to contact upstream to cherrypick the fixes from their svn. However, they seem to have a receptive upstream and it's a very useful plugin for firefox.

This does assume though, that every buildd is doing everything which is not true for all architectures. And the buildd load is currently only calculated and stored on the buildd and not centrally. It could however be collected at some point. (We do not have all logs neither because security ones are not mailed to the log repository but only to security people.)

Is it a network-manager problem maybe? I use iwl3945 - it is definitely broken at Brendan's Bakery on Mission in Santa Cruz - awesome sandwiches there. Both the stock kernel and my own have that problem. But I think it happened at home on the wire once. MDNS problem? iptables logs everything it blocks except windoze and it's not logging anything blocked. but i don't understand why the browser works on the same names, does iceweasel keep a dns cache? at home if i use the stock debian kernel (2.6.26-17) there is an arp loop on the wire interface asking who has 169.* addrs. i have been too lazy to figure out ip6tables so i turned off ipv6 in my own kernel.

Can you (re)confirm that packages re-uploaded to NEW are processed according to the date of their first upload?
Dear FTP team, when I notice potential problems in the debian/copyright file of packages in the NEW queue, I contact the maintainers and suggest them to re-upload a corrected version to save your time. (http://wiki.debian.org/CopyrightReview). The web summary of the queue contents lists the packages by upload date, but I remember reading from you in a previous discussion that the queue is processed according to the date of the first upload. Unfortunately, I lost the reference… Can you confirm, or can somebody point me at the correct message in our lists archive, so that I can document it on the wiki page?

For sure, Debian can suggest them git, Ubuntu can suggest them bzr, Fedora can suggest them cvs, and Opensuze can suggest them svn. I do not mind working with patches instad of archive updates. For Debian, it also has the advantage of not having 12 orig.gz updates per year (12 × 20 Mo archives). I do not know how it matters with recent hard drives, however… And for the format of the patch, I do not know what to tell them apart that unified diff is the preferred format of some Debian developers, and that we like that others use the formats that we prefer. I think that is a too weak argument, so unless there is a real flaw in the format used upstream, I will not bother them for a change. This formats works with quilt, so I do not understand why it would be difficult to get it work with the format ’3.0 (quilt)’ of dpkg. According to the current discussion, the problem is more political than technical. We already do not manage to agree internally on what is the best workflow. I can propose Upstream to adapt their habits to our habits, but this has to come with benefits that overcome the energy invested in the changes, and the fact that what is best for distributor A will not match what distributor B expects. Much saner in my opinion is to have a toolchain that is liberal in what it accepts. (Hence the proposition to accept upstream ‘zip’ archives).

Fine. Whichever one of those they choose, it can consume and produce unified-diff-format patches. > And for the format of the patch, I do not know what to tell them apart > that unified diff is the preferred format of some Debian developers, That's quite a misrepresentation; it's far wider than just “some Debian developers” who prefer that format. > and that we like that others use the formats that we prefer. The point, rather, seems to be that unified-diff format is the de facto standard format for exchanging patch information. > I think that is a too weak argument, so unless there is a real flaw in > the format used upstream, I will not bother them for a change. The flaw is that patch information in any format other than unified-diff format is nowhere near as portable. > Much saner in my opinion is to have a toolchain that is liberal in > what it accepts. (Hence the proposition to accept upstream ‘zip’ > archives). This is in opposition to the ideal of having standard [0] formats for data interchange, and choosing them on the basis of what is already widely produced and accepted. [0] “standard” in this usage necessarily including “freely-implemented”, which doesn't disqualify the other options being discussed, but I put this footnote in the hope of forestalling useless discussions about proprietary formats. -- \ “I moved into an all-electric house.
