PAM 0.75 in experimental at next dinstall run

2002-05-25 Thread Sam Hartman
Hi. I have just uploaded pam_0.75-1 to experimental. This release is mostly just a porting heads up release for people to test and make sure that their applications still build, that PAM still minimally works and that I haven't introduced some horrible packaging bug. It would be appreciated if

Is dpkg-shlibdeps broken on NetBSD or just FreeBSD?

2002-01-21 Thread Sam Hartman
I've checked in a preliminary implementation of the build proposal I made here. It's very sketchy now, but you can all look at it and make comments. The packages directory contains a bsd-buildtools package, which installs bsd-buildpackage in /usr/bin. If you run this script in a patch director

As I mentioned Saturday, I'm interested in helping set up some sort of system for managing patches that we are not comfortable sending back to Debian packages yet. I'm concerned that without such a system: * Different people will each set up their own archives of packages with different mecha

E I'm finding that I'd like to be able to build my own versions of system packages and to rebuild a chroot myself in order to debug things. I also believe I want a mechanism for maintaining diffs to the Debian sources that are not clean enough to apply upstream yet. For example we don't have tete

I haven't really gotten a chance to look at this, mostly just playing around. I was able to build ed (wanted some sort of reasonable text editor) but it didn't work. Whenever I attempt to make a substitution, it dumps core in regexec.I should build a debugging libc, debugging ed, etc. As a

So, there was mention of tackling PAM after shadow gets working. Speaking as PAM maintainer, I will not accept new patches for portability to the Debian PAM 0.72 packages. We're already too far out of date with regard to upstream. If patches are submitted I'll ask people to redo them after I

Hi. I'm not sure I see any conclusion to the apt thread. Does anyone have apt-get working (instead of segfaulting) using the apt in the distributed chroot? If so, how? If not, does anyone have apt working using other builds?
