Hi, [I'm Cc-ing all uploaders of packages which are known to be broken in terms of missing dependencies in Debian backports] I noticed that Debian backports includes packages which can't be installed due to broken dependencies. Today I took some minutes to write a script using the lovely dose-distcheck tool to identify such packages and hereby report my findings. In jessie-backports the list of broken packages per maintainer are: * Uploader beuc@debian.org with issue(s) in source package(s) fusionforge * Uploader corsac@debian.org with issue(s) in source package(s) linux-grsec-base * Uploader hlieberman@debian.org with issue(s) in source package(s) python-letsencrypt python-letsencrypt-apache * Uploader marga@debian.org with issue(s) in source package(s) cinnamon * Uploader mckinstry@debian.org with issue(s) in source package(s) cdo ncl * Uploader mjt@tls.msk.ru with issue(s) in source package(s) musescore * Uploader pabs@debian.org with issue(s) in source package(s) cruft * Uploader troyh@debian.org with issue(s) in source package(s) crash * Uploader zigo@debian.org with issue(s) in source package(s) ceilometer python-barbicanclient python-cliff python-jsonpath-rw-ext python-mistralclient For further information see https://people.debian.org/~mika/broken_backports/broken_backports_main_jessie.txt In wheezy-backports the list of broken packages per maintainer are: * Uploader alessio@debian.org with issue(s) in source package(s) xcfa * Uploader beuc@debian.org with issue(s) in source package(s) fusionforge * Uploader c.schoenert@t-online.de with issue(s) in source package(s) sogo-connector * Uploader d@taba.se with issue(s) in source package(s) handbrake node-glob * Uploader glaubitz@physik.fu-berlin.de with issue(s) in source package(s) fs-uae * Uploader hzandbelt@pingidentity.com with issue(s) in source package(s) libapache2-mod-auth-openidc * Uploader luigi@debian.org with issue(s) in source package(s) squid3 * Uploader morph@debian.org with issue(s) in source package(s) libteam nlopt * Uploader salve@debian.org with issue(s) in source package(s) auctex * Uploader sunweaver@debian.org with issue(s) in source package(s) assetic aws-sdk-for-php fonts-wqy-microhei owncloud-client php-guzzle php-opencloud phpunit * Uploader tjaalton@debian.org with issue(s) in source package(s) sssd For further information see https://people.debian.org/~mika/broken_backports/broken_backports_main_wheezy.txt If you should have any questions about it feel free to ping me. If anyone wants to reproduce my findings, the steps to reproduce are available at https://people.debian.org/~mika/broken_backports/ regards, -mika- -- http://michael-prokop.at/ || http://adminzen.org/ http://grml-solutions.com/ || http://grml.org/
