Bug#692929: Reopen request: ncpmount must be installed suid root

2013-01-16 Thread Jozsef Marton
ncpmount (and possibly other components from ncpfs) needs to be 
installed setuid root to function correctly when run as ordinary user.


running ncpmount as ordinary user leads to the error message:
ncpmount must be installed suid root


The same for ncpumount:
ncpumount must be installed suid root

I would prefer a dpkg-reconfigure question if I want to install them as 
setuid root warning me that it is unsafe.



Thanks,
Jozsef

pre-approval of rename openmotif -> motif for main archive

2013-01-16 Thread Paul Gevers
Hi ftp-master(s),

Maybe you have seen on debian-devel [1] that (open)motif is now released
under a DSFG-free license and that we are working on getting [2] it in
shape for debian/main. Actually, my intention is that it fully replaces
lesstif2 (which is starting to look slightly bit-rotten) in jessie.

My questions now are:
- Do you agree with the renaming of the source package from openmotif to
motif (upstream renamed it's project as well, we think we should follow
as the widget set is well known under the name motif). Binary packages
are not renamed.

- I could not find the proper documentation of what to take care of, in
case of a source rename, other than properly migrating the bugs in the
BTS. Are there more issues involved?

- If you judge the licensing to be in order, as I have, is uploading the
new source (to experimental at this stage of freeze) the right thing to
do to get it into main (after changing the d/control entry of course)?

Kind regards
Paul
