New Debian sparc Packages
These sparc packages were installed into the Debian hierarchy in the
last week:
----- MEDIUM Urgency Packages -----------
kernel-doc-2.1.125 - Linux kernel specific documentation.
kernel-headers-2.1.125 - Header files related to a specific Linux kernel.
kernel-image-2.1.125-chrp - Linux kernel binary image.
kernel-source-2.1.125 - Linux kernel source.
kernel-doc-2.1.125 2.1.125-1 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/doc
kernel-headers-2.1.125 2.1.125-1 into dists/slink/main/binary-powerpc/devel
kernel-image-2.1.125-chrp 2.1.125-1 into dists/slink/main/binary-powerpc/base
kernel-source-2.1.125 2.1.125-1 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/devel
----- Low Urgency Packages --------------
alien - Install Red Hat, Stampede, and Slackware Packages with dpkg.
alien 6.18 -> 6.19 into dists/potato/main/binary-all/admin
alien (6.19) unstable; urgency=low
* Don't fail even if dh_shlibdeps fails.
base-files - Debian Base System Miscellaneous Files
base-files 2.0.2 -> 2.0.3 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/base
base-files (2.0.3) unstable; urgency=low
* Moved common licenses to /usr/share/common-licenses.
* Default dotfiles for root are now installed only the first time.
* /usr/local and subdirectories are now created mode 2775
and root.staff, according to policy.
* Added /usr/local/share.
cvs-buildpackage - Debian package scripts for CVS source trees.
cvs-buildpackage 2.11 -> 2.12 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/devel
cvs-buildpackage (2.12) unstable; urgency=low
* Fixed documentation rules about how the debian revision tag is
generated. closes: BUG#28451
* Mentioned in cvs-upgrade how to upgrade a working CVS directory using
cvs update.
* Ran a spell check on the HOWTO and README. closes: BUG#28452
* Fixed a typo in cvs-inject.1, it should be upstream_version_, not
upstream_versions_. closes: BUG#28459
* Documented conf_prefix in cvsdeb.conf.5. closes: BUG#28460
* Fixed a typo in cvs-upgrade that confused it while upgrading a
Debian-only package. The apparent unquoted arguments to -m are a
display artifact, as the report noted, the command does the right
thing anyway. I do not think it is worth the effort required in fixing
the anomaly, but I shall do so if there is sufficient demand.
closes: BUG#28461
* Fixed more typos in cvsdeb.conf.5. Mentioned ~/.cvsdeb.conf there as
well. Escaped the ~ in cvs-buildpackage.conf.1 closes: BUG#28536
* Put in a safety check in cvs-inject to make it more paranoid about
changing dirs. I can't reportduce problems people seem to be having.
dbuild - Tool for building Debian binary packages from Debian sources
dbuild 1.10 -> 1.11 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/devel
dbuild (1.11) unstable; urgency=low
* dbuild.1: Added run-dbuild documentation.
* Move *.nondebbin.tar.gz also to OK, if they are built. Fixes bug #24892.
* Log files for packages in the wrong architecture are stored in
WRONGARCH, not FAILED.
debhelper - helper programs for debian/rules
debhelper 1.1.23 -> 1.1.24 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/devel
debhelper (1.1.24) unstable; urgency=low
* dh_suidregister: remove suid/sgid bits from all files registered. The
reason is this: if you're using suidmanager, and you want a file that
ships suid to never be suid on your system, shipping it suid in the .deb
will create a window where it is suid before suidmanager fixes it's
permissions. This change should be transparent to users and developers.
debian-policy - Debian Policy Manual and related documents
debian-policy 2.4.1.4 -> 2.5.0.0 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/doc
debian-policy (2.5.0.0) unstable; urgency=low
* AMENDMENT: Added in changes in Bug #25911, which rearranged sections
to create a new section 4, namely, files. Section 3.3 ("Files") should
become Section 4. The Sections that are currently Section 4 and
Section 5 should be moved down to become Section 5 and Section 6
accordingly.
What is now Section 5.5 ("Log files") should be moved to be a
subsection of the new Section 4 ("Files"), becoming section 4.8,
placing it after "Configuration files", moving the would-be Section
4.8 ("Permissions and owners") to Section 4.9. All subsections of the
current Section 5 after 5.5 should be accordingly moved down to fill
in the number gap.
This, along with the next amendment, justifies bumping up the version
number. closes: BUG#25911
* AMENDMENT: Added in changes in Bug #21185, about the naming and
compression of changelog files. Now, if the upstream changelog file is
HTML formatted, it should be accessible as
/usr/doc/<package>/changelog.html.gz It also allows for this to be a
symlink, if the upstream file name does not conform to Debian
conventions. closes: BUG#21185
* AMENDMENT: Added in changes in Bug #7890, to make clear that the HTML
documents should be supplied in _some_ package, not necessarily in the
main binary package (at the discretion of the maintainer).
closes: BUG#7890
* AMENDMENT: Added in changes in Bug #26461, which corrects the policy
to refer to /usr/doc/<package>/copyright, rather than
/usr/doc/copyright/<package>. closes: BUG#26461
* AMENDMENT: Added in changes in Bug #25385, which allow the
architecture specification strings to be of the form <arch>-<os>,
where os is one of linux, gnu. Previously, only linux was allowed, now
we also cater to the hurd. closes: BUG#25385
* The responsibility of the contents of this package has now passed to
the debian-policy mailing list. The packaging details are now being
managed by a group of maintainers that do ot won the contents.
* Make the package optional, not extra.
* Re did the SGML markup. Normalized the document, and undid the omitted
and shor tags. Personally, I use too many DTD's in real life to be so
converssant with each one to be clever with tag omissions, and, since
I have a smart editor, omitting tags does not byuy one much. In the
process, I discovered a few errors in the markup (one of my
predecessors hasd the unfortunate habit of treating <p> as a "create
some space here" tag, and more often than not put it at the end of a
paragraph, rather than using is as a container element (which is what
it is, really).
* Re did the control files, making them more robust
* re did the rules file, making it more general, and easier to maintain
by putting in a layer of abstractions.

Also moved the tag info from shared-libs.desc to binaries.desc, where
it belongs.
