New Debian hurd-i386 Packages



These hurd-i386 packages were installed into the Debian hierarchy in the
last week:

----- !!! HIGH URGENCY PACKAGES !!! -----

boot-floppies - Scripts to create the Debian installation floppy set.
boot-floppies 2.1.7 -> 2.1.8 into dists/slink/main/binary-all/admin
boot-floppies 2.1.7 -> 2.1.8 into dists/potato/main/binary-all/admin
boot-floppies (2.1.8) unstable frozen; urgency=high
  * /dev/console is a symlink (for i386, kernel 2.0.36).
    Closes #33448, #33428.
  * Typo in the main Makefile when building for the czech
    language. Closes #33283.
  * Built with a fixed dpkg-multicd. Closes #33276.
  * Uses kernel with Adaptec driver v5.1.11. Closes #32444.
  * changes which were made in 2.1.7 but not logged as such:
    documentation: many SPARC-related bits of documentation, include tftp
     boot documentation; document tecra boot-floppies and XT device names
     for i386; typos and grammar fixes
    documentation/README-authors: add list for people working on
     translations, please update this if it is out of date
    PCMCIA fix when copying resolv.conf
    Updated french messages
  * generic alternate kernels support (see MULTI_KERNELS option in main.c)
    used to boot 2.2.1 as well as 2.0.35 on sparc and tecra on i386
  * kernel 2.2.1 support: use /dev/console for all types of display (instead
    of tty1 or ttyS0), deal with /dev/tty not available on console, new broken
    loop device detection method, disable stderrToTTY
  * disable all but the first terminal if booting on serial console
    (especially logging to tty3 & running a shell in tty2),
  * sparc fixes: use termio not termios (the latter is broken on sparc
    kernels), don't overwrite bin/sed & usr/bin/whiptail if already done by
    a previous installation (in case of a persistent nfsroot filesystem),
    manually add /dev/cua[01] for serial console boot (not provided by
    makedev anymore),
  * ultrasparc support by the mean of ultralinux 2.2.1 kernel:
    builds {resc,drv}1440-2.2.1-sun4u and a new universal tftpboot-2.2.1.img
    based on TILO to boot both sun4[cdm] & sun4u sparcs with the same image.

debhelper (1.2.42) unstable; urgency=low
  * dh_m5sums: don't generate bogus md5sums file if the package contains no

    file will not match the md5sum of the Packages file and it will
    be deleted. Closes: #33816


epic4-help - help files for epic4.
epic4-help 4-0pre2-2 -> pre2-1 into dists/potato/main/binary-all/net
epic4-help (pre2-1) unstable; urgency=low
  * The reason for the oddball versioning of this package (that epic4 would
    eventially become epic and this way no epochs would ever be needed on
    this package) is now gone.  The version number on this package was
    obnoxious, it's now changed to match the versioning of the program it's
    written for.
  * Moved files to /usr/share/epic4/help for pre2.002.  Old docs are better
    than no docs, right?

    user compiled packages also have a priority. coses: Bug#32848

info 3.9-5 -> 3.12-0.1 into dists/potato/main/binary-hurd-i386/doc
texinfo (3.12-0.1) unstable; urgency=low
  * Upgraded from 3.9 to new upstream release 3.12
  * Non-maintainer release, this time with a proper -0.1 version.
  * This does not use the patches against the files info/infomap.c,
    info/session.c and util/texi2dvi from the previous Debian version.
    According to James Troup, their functionality has been integrated into
    the upstream source so that the patches are indeed obsolete.

vm         - A mail user agent for Emacs
vm 6.65-2 -> 6.68-1 into dists/potato/main/binary-all/mail
vm (6.68-1) unstable; urgency=low
  * Added doc-base support.
  * New upstream version. Please NOTE: Kyle has retracted support for emacs
    20.3, saying that there is an bug in that version of emacs whence a
    buffer string copy does not copy the contents of the buffer, causing
    mail to be distorted. I have personally committed to using emacs20 v
    20.3, and I have never experienced this bug. However, the chance does
    exist (and has existed for all emacs20+vm combinations); use this on
    emacs20 at your own risk. (I have changed VM so it does at least
    compile on Emacs 20.3).
  * Excerpted changes:
      * put user specified Netscape switches before the -remote stuff
        in the arg list to Netscape.
      * vm-imap-retrieve-to-crashbox: use char-after instead of
        char-before since Emacs 19.34 doesn't have char-before.
      * use vm-coding-system-name instead of coding-system-name.  fset
        vm-coding-system-name to coding-system-name if it exists,
        otherwise use symbol-name.  FSF Emacs doesn't have a
        coding system object, so the name is the same as the coding
        system symbol's name.
      * vm-determine-proper-charset: wrap the guts of the function in a
        vm-with-multibyte-buffer form to ensure we're looking at
        characters instead of the raw encoding data when scanning for
        the character sets that are present.
      * vm-decode-mime-layout: support the old 'name' parameter when
        supporting vm-infer-mime-types.
      * vm-do-reply: don't match vm-subject-ignored-prefix against the
        subject to determine if we prepend vm-reply-subject-prefix to
        the subject or not.  This reverts a change made in VM 6.47.
      * vm-mm-layout: call vm-mime-parse-entity-safe instead of
        vm-mime-parse-entity so that we get always get a layout back.
        This avoids a MIME part completely disappearing if we can't
        parse it.
      * vm-mime-parse-entity-safe: use type "error/error" for the
        layout returned if the MIME part can't be parsed.
      * vm-mime-qp-encode-region: hex encode _ and ? for Q encoding as
        required by RFC 2047.
      * vm-mime-send-body-to-file: Func-bind jka-compr-get-compression-info
        to 'ignore' to avoid double compression of saved MIME bodies that
        are already compressed.
      * vm-imap-make-session: quote (using IMAP quoting rules) login
        name and password that are sent as part of the LOGIN command.
      * vm-mime-parse-entity-safe: pass message and passing-message-only
        flag to vm-mime-parse-entity.
      * vm-mime-parse-entity: wrong number of fields in the last layout
        structure fixed.
      * make MIME transfer encoding/decoding work buffers unibyte to
        avoid corruption when characters are copied from them.  (FSF
        Emacs only).
      * vm-mime-attach-message: store the message to attach in an
        unibyte buffer instead of a multibyte buffer.
      * vm-mime-fsfemacs-encode-composition: encode text regions using
        coding system selected from vm-mime-mule-coding-to-charset-alist
        instead of relying on buffer-file-coding-system to be set properly.
      * vm-mime-fsfemacs-encode-composition: when handling the attachment
        of a composite object, add MIME header section (if not already
        provided) before parsing and transfer encoding the object.
        vm-mime-xemacs-encode-composition similarly modified.
      * New variables:
        + vm-mime-qp-decoder-program
        + vm-mime-qp-decoder-switches
        + vm-mime-qp-encoder-program
        + vm-mime-qp-encoder-switches
      * set-file-coding-system -> set-buffer-file-coding-system.
      * vm-edit-message: force edit buffer to be unibyte (FSF Emacs
        only).
      * vm: force folder buffer to be unibyte (FSF Emacs only).
      * wrap parts of various MIME decoding and display functions in
        vm-with-unibyte-buffer so we can work with unwashed 8-bit data
        directly. (FSF Emacs only).
      * force some buffers we create to be unibyte buffers to avoid
        conflabulation of 8-bit data. (FSF Emacs only).
      * vm-find-trailing-message-separator: point still not moving backward
        all the times that it should be, so go back to ignoring the return
        value of vm-find-leading-message-separator and always moving backward.
      * vm-mail-mode-insert-message-id-maybe: use the hostname variable
        we so carefullly initialized, instead of just using
        (system-name).
      * vm-mime-base64-encode-region: if B encoding, strip newlines from
        the work buffer instead of the buffer region we're converting.
      * vm-mime-base64-encode-region: don't emit status message unless
        the region we're encoding is larger than 200 chars.
      * vm-mime-parse-entity: new fourth argument that tells the
        function whether to use the message argument for positional
        information or to just use it to struct in the message slot of
        the MIME layout struct.  Same for vm-mime-parse-entity-safe.
        Use this new argument appropriately in various places so the
        message slot gets filled in more places.
