Hi,
quite a few people maintain their own aptable archives of packages -
whether for internal use or for publication. In that environment,
override files don't serve a purpose since the ftp maintainer is also
the package maintainer. However dpkg-scanpackages complains about
every package it doesn'

Hi,
for me the dhelp package does not work at all, because of the problem
described in bug reports 109207, 109849, 110411, 110433, 110538,
111044, 112614, and 112659. My question is, does the package work for
anybody at all? Is there any easy way to make it work again?
Otherwise all these bugs

there is an 103 days old IPT for a compilercache package (bug #100538).
I asked the submitter whether he is still interested in this,

Hello!
www.cargal.org, an austrian project dedicated to GNU/Linux, arts and
science, would like to donate a Seagate Barracuda ATA II harddisk (Model

I'd like to do the following:
$ chroot-get install --root=/var/root/mail exim cyrus-imapd
Why? My exim uses cyrdeliver to get mail to cyrus. I believe this
means they both need to be in the same chroot.
What do I want to accomplish? Hacking my mail/imap servers shouldn't
compromise the whole

That is the point. As far as I know, The it is far more complex then one tend
to think at first glance, especially when you want multi lingual support.
And the keymap, which can be made quite easily

Hi,
is it possible to get the full URL of a package (the one which is passed
by apt-get to dpkg for package installation) from apt-cache or some other
standard tool? What I would lite to do is something like this:
$ apt-url bash
http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/potato/main/binary-i386/
Hi,
where can I find the descriptions of the official debian subsection which
can be specified in the Section field of the control file?
I need something similar to the /usr/share/tasksel/debian-tasks.desc file
which describes the debian tasks.

I've been doing some historical research on Debian, and find that although
I'm the biggest pack-rat I know, I'm missing some important data.
What I need are the Maintainers files from the 2.1 and 2.2 releases. I
could also make use of the overrides files from these releases
