Thanks! :-) $ rc-alert (tells you about RC bugs in packages you actually have installed and which, therefore you may care about / want fixed / be able to check if the bug still exists). Part of the devscripts package. http://www.debian.org/Bugs/ http://bugs.debian.org/release-critical/ http://udd.debian.org/bugs.cgi http://wiki.debian.org/ReleaseGoals http://wiki.debian.org/HowtoUseBTS http://wiki.debian.org/DropProblemPackages http://qa.debian.org/ http://wiki.debian.org/BSP/BeginnersHOWTO I'm sure there are plenty of other resources. Maybe arrange a BSP yourself? (or encourage someone near you to arrange it.) Join #debian-bugs on IRC, maybe mentors.debian.net & associated list & IRC channel if you're not familiar with changing packages - but fixing RC bugs doesn't have to involve anything except interacting with the BTS. Don't forget that leaf packages with no reverse dependencies can be removed if that is the most appropriate way to deal with the RC bug and asking for removal is an action on the BTS, not the package. http://wiki.debian.org/ftpmaster_Removals http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/pkgs.html#archive-manip http://qa.debian.org/howto-remove.html -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
