Backport of Qt issue(s)?

Hi all, I'm running into two (old) Qt bugs on Debian 9.5. Preferably I'd like to see them fixed upstream, so that the whole world can benefit from the changes, instead of applying patches locally. I'm willing to send pull requests of needed. I noticed by default Debian uses Qt 5.7, which isn't an

libcurl3 and libcurl4

Hi all, As I was asking in another topic, I was trying to set up CdEmu however during the process of installation, I had lost libcurl3 to libcurl4 which led removal of Viber application. (I don't know what I did.) I had installed Viber as described in https://forums.bunsenlabs.org/viewtopic.php?

I do not know, but: \- By default there are no services listening (except in 127.0.0.1) \- A server is usually behind a router/firewall \- It is better that each user configure their system as they want, instead of having default values. Although it would be nice if the installer warns you that

Hi Dan, The basic reason is this: it makes sense. Let's suppose Debian installs a basic firewall by default. How basic? Let's say: - outbound: permit - forward: deny - inbound: accept NTP, DHCP, DNS, and any TCP packet which is a response to an outbound packet Now, what
