[ Dropping -cd@, not a topic for them. ] Steven Chamberlain <steven@pyro.eu.org> (2014-09-10): > Sounds good; it feels like a good time for a new release.

(I think so given the next paragraph of yours.) In which case, clock's ticking. I don't see too many RC bugs open against src:linux right now, and it seems the arm* failure is already fixed in svn; so linux might be ready “soon”. Of course, I can shift an upload by a few days to make room for more newer components, just mentioning the release is approaching. :) > > [ I'm adding -bsd@ to the loop explicitly since there was quite some > > work lately (thanks to Steven who stepped up and quickly sent a fair > > number of patches), and I'd rather avoid forgetting/not knowing about > > some extra patches. ] > > Thanks :) All patches for the kfreebsd d-i Beta 2 errata got uploaded. > There is only the #757986 "inappropriate ioctl for device" prompt, that > we could try to fix before Beta 2 *if* there is time after the above.
