Re: Uploaded ppp 2.3.5-1 (alpha) to master
Hello Christopher! :-)
I'm not sure whether it was my fault or not, but anyway, I downloaded
ppp_2.3.5-1_i386 a while ago, and diald wouldn't work any more for some
reason after I rebooted, so I checked changelog.Debian and saw the
following:
> Changes:
> ppp (2.3.5-1) unstable; urgency=low
> .
> * Not a new Maintainer just trying to help
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
> * New upstream release
Hmm... I forgot who uploaded that package, but if it is true that the guy
is not even a Debian maintainer, then... Hmm... how did it get into master's
Incoming in the first place? :-)
Perplexed, I had to use minicom to use my shell account to fetch
the ppp*.deb packages again. Note that there are *two* of them currently
sitting on master:
2.3.5-1 from the "Not a new Maintainer just trying to help" person,
seems to be broken (?) (It worked right after I upgraded,
but seemed to fail after I rebooted... I didn't check what
errors though...)
package dated May 8, 1998
2.3.5-0.1 by Espy, a trusted Debian developer (by "trusted" I mean
I recognize his name. ;-)
package dated May 13?, 1998.
Anyway, I downloaded Espy's 2.3.5-0.1 version, and voila! Everything worked
again. :-)
So, if you guys think it is appropriate, could someone remove 2.3.5-1 and
keep 2.3.5-0.1 on master's Incoming? Thanks! :-)
