Title: RE: Mozilla
The Mozilla M14 readme clearly states that the M13 preferences
are not compatible. Most likely their install script removes
the preferences automatically or similar, but I view this as
a fix for a temporary problem and not worth implementing for
Debian.

Were you using the Slink-an-a-half, or the original
Slink? The original slink was based on the 2.0 Kernel,
and I believe with Potato some of the settings for

Can anyone refresh my memory as to the legality of encryption-enabled builds
of software inside the U.S. Did we (like Kernel.org) decide it was okay to
host this in U.S.-based servers, or are we still recommending
that members of the free world do such builds?
If the answer is to not build inside

That's my question as well. I can't find any reference to an "active"

I need to work with Gwydion Dylan, and noticed we don't currently
have a package for it.
I vaguely remember someone talking about it long ago, but don't
remember what became of it.
I intend to package this Dylan implementation unless someone else
is already doing so. I don't see any mention in W

This is a stupid question, but I've never figured it out:
Is there a way to restart a build of a package *AND* still
be able to generate the source tarball and diff?
I've tried the -nc option to dpkg-buildpackage, but it always
omits the orig.tar.gz.
I'm trying to bootstrap a program that takes
No doubt most of you have seen the NSA's secure linux posting
on Slashdot this morning.
Looking at:

there appears to be several utilities that have been updated
to provide enhanced security.

I'd like to chime in --
It's a real annoyance that the base disks don't set up lilo to let you
boot into multiple operating systems. Couldn't it ask if you want to
dual-boot with windows, or whatever, and generate an appropriate lilo.conf
file?
This is an area where RedHat has a significant lead
I say let's make the 2.2 image a high-profile aspect of slink's release. The kernel is very stable, and I've been running my Debian system on it since 2.1.120. Plus, it would be a great "technical" feature of our distribution that might give us some bragging rights over the other distros.

I'm sure you were aware that you have to upgrade your pppd to work with any
of the higher-order 2.1.X kernels? You might want to check the kernel
