I have been receiving bugs.d.o emails which are unrelated to my
package for the last two-three days.
And their headers seem quite garbled: they include part of other
messages...
Included five of them.
Is there anything fishy going on? Or is the spam filter going crazy?

I installed a fresh copy of potato on a box, using the

The base system install worked perfectly OK here.
The first time I tried to run apt (on a NFS archive), the package

Yeah, just uploaded some new packages which fix the typo.
Maybe it should be trapped by dinstall instead of hoosing

It's the header for dlopen(), dlclose(), dlsym(), dladdr(), the dynamic

Hi fellow testers,
I've just uploaded diald to master, and I plan to have it in Debian

It has also the neat feature of rewriting outbound packets' IP
