Re: Very informative changelog entry (was: Accepted jwhois 3.2.2-2 (i386 source))
Martin Zobel-Helas: this is not a very informative changelog entry, even if you only changed RIPE IP spaces. In a way, no. The real changelog (the non-Debian one) has more information, but wasn't included in this upload since it's only an intermediate version due to some build problems I am having trying to get the next upstream version to work properly. -- \\// Peter - http://www.softwolves.pp.se/ I do not read or respond to mail with HTML attachments. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: ftp.gnu.org cracked
Scott James Remnant: No problem, this is only a quick run -- others may find ways to improve this script somewhat. What did you use to determine which packages to check? I notice that at least my package for GNU jwhois is missing from your list (although I know that the Debian version is correct since I post the versions to Debian and ftp.gnu.org at the same time...). -- \\// Peter - http://www.softwolves.pp.se/ I do not read or respond to mail with HTML attachments.
Re: ftp.gnu.org cracked
Scott James Remnant: If you read the script, I did, but I couldn't figure out what was the input. The only MD5 sums that GNU have provided are for 2.4, 2.4.1 and 2.4.2 Right. I sent them an update mail earlier this week, but I guess they're quite busy at the moment... -- \\// Peter - http://www.softwolves.pp.se/ I do not read or respond to mail with HTML attachments.
Re: /var/run and scripts
Matt Zimmerman: noexec /tmp and /var/tmp seem to create far more problems than they solve. I've run with /tmp set to noexec for quite some time on some machines, and it tend to work quite well. The only thing that seems to fail occasionally is debconf, despite that I point TMPDIR to a directory that is executable. But those machines all run stable, so it might have been fixed since. -- \\// Peter - http://www.softwolves.pp.se/ I do not read or respond to mail with HTML attachments.
Git on Alioth
Hi! I am trying to find information on how to host a Git repository on Alioth for my project. I used to have a CVS repository (which is still visible from the project page), but I have now ported it to Git using parsecvs, and want to host that. Call me blind, but I can't seem to find any documentation on how to do that beyond http://blog.madism.org/index.php/2007/05/31/128-user-git-repositories-on-alioth-o- and I can't get that to work--I've created ~peterk/public_git and uploaded my converted repository there, but I can't get it to show up. Also, is it possible to get the project page on Alioth to list the Git repository instead of the CVS one? Any pointers to the obvious documentation links I've managed to overlook are very welcome. Thanks in advance, -- \\// Peter - http://www.softwolves.pp.se/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: debian-security-announce-$lang@lists?
Martin Schulze: > what do other developers think about localized lists for security > advisories, such as [EMAIL PROTECTED] That sounds like a good idea. However, to make sure that the information is sent out as soon as possible, I think it would be a good idea that, whenever a new advisory is issued in English, a message is automatically sent out to the languages' announce lists, pointing to where the original announcement can be found (either in the list archives, or on the web), awaiting the translation. -- \\// Peter - I do not read or respond to mail with HTML attachments.

The list is still sorted with Austria first in all the other pages, even when it makes little or no sense at all.
