Bug#601161: Some links, and some thoughts

2010-11-15 Thread The Anarcat
Hi, My experience with ppp on freebsd has been fairly limited, as I tried to make PPPoE work, and failed to do that because of funky netgraph problems, see: http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-...@lists.debian.org/msg05960.html and: http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-...@lists.debian.org/msg0596

Bug#595728: upload to -security?

2010-09-20 Thread The Anarcat
Hi, Seems to me this is a regression from the last security upgrade. Shouldn't we just publish a new version to -security and be done with it? Seems to me volatile is not sufficient, as it's not necessarily followed by everybody that got hit by this (critical) bug. I have seen numerous such uploa

Bug#581265: why not in squeeze?

2010-05-18 Thread The Anarcat
I do not see in the URL mentionned earlier why we shouldn't ship squeeze with Chromium. It's a massively popular web browser which doesn't suffer from the trademark issues Firefox and the Mozilla foundation spawned on Debian (and now Fedora, btw). If there are security concerns in Chromium, that s

Does this require unblocking from the debian-release@ team? It seems that it packages a new upstream which is against freeze policy. It would probably be better to package this patch instead: http://drupal.org/files/sa-2008-047/SA-2008-047-5.9.patch -- The United States is a nation of laws: bad
