digikam: does it make sense to report a bug already fixed upstream but not in debian?

Hi. Case in point: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=395875 There is no corresponding bugreport for the Debian package; had I not found the upstream bug, I would have filed a report with nearly the same information, since my tests match the issue perfectly. Question is, for tracking purpo

kernel regression from stable to testing (acpi lid / EEEpc 1215p)

Hi. On my EEEpc 1215p laptop, the upgrade from stable to testing broke the lid switch detection, since * another OS detects it just fine and acts on it; * the kernel from stable (4.9.0-7) does too Therefore, HW is ok (not obvious on an old laptop...) If I use the current kernel in testing (4

Hi. Two systems on same LAN, let's call them A and B, with domain "localdomain". Identical /etc/resolv.conf (generated by NetworkManager), including a "search localdomain" line. Identical /etc/hosts with only localhost aliases in it. From A: ping shortnameB (OK) ping shortnameB.localdomain (O

hdparm ignoring spindown_time in config when called with by-id symlink

Hi. My PC has two disks, a NVME for Debian/testing and an old 2.5 drive for an OS that shall remain nameless :) Since the 2.5 disc isn't at all used by Linux, I figured I might as well set a very aggressive spindown time of, say, 30s and I wrote this in hdparm.conf: /dev/disk/by-id/ata-Hi
