wheezy release issues overview



Hi all,

the following list is supposed to be incomplete and contains issues 
probably to be fixed in jessie, but may serve as a starting point:

----

(NFS) [Giorgio]

<URL: https://lists.debian.org/debian-edu/2013/09/msg00054.html > 

People are already complaining about speed on the workstation clients 
(about 30 machines).

I guess it is the "sync" in NFSv4 exports; at least on my old 
handcrafter server/client system this was the issue.

Why not using "async" by default? Does somebody use async for the same 
reason?

(kdm hangs if gdm is installed) [Giorgio]
<URL: https://lists.debian.org/debian-edu/2013/09/msg00062.html >

On a KDE workstation (wheezy, pxe install) I installed gnome with 
apt-get. The gdm3 manager works correctly using gnome and kde plasma. 
The kdm manager hangs after the installation of gnome on logout, 
whatever the used interface is.

(file access using roaming ws) [George]
<URL: https://lists.debian.org/debian-edu/2013/10/msg00003.html >

A roaming profile machine can browse to tjener, using the username for 
the share. However, files can't be edited there. You have to copy them 
locally to edit, then copy them back after. How can I fix it so that it 
would work like a win or mac laptop?

Status: open, workaround(s) posted to thread on debian-edu@

(freeradius/win clients) [Giorgio]
<URL: https://lists.debian.org/debian-edu/2013/09/msg00007.html >

I would really like to have Freeradius + KCRAP at least for jessie. 
Wireless auth gets more and more crucial. 

http://fuhry.com/blog/2012/01/01/mschapv2-against-mit-kerberos-yes-you-can/

I have a bunch of irreducible Windows users (mainly teachers using own 
laptops) that somehow block the migration of the wifi auth on the WPA2 
enterprise.

(hwinfo) [Michael Biebl]
<URL: https://lists.debian.org/debian-edu/2013/10/msg00118.html >

I'm currently going through the list of rdeps of hal [1], which is dead 
since a long time and no longer functional. One is hwinfo, which 
debian-edu recommends and goto-common depends on.

Question now is, if we should drop hwinfo and update goto-common and 
eduction-common to no longer reference that package or if we need to 
update hwinfo to a hal-less version. Unfortunately, hwinfo is no longer 
really maintained in Debian (last maintainer upload 2009, orphaned), so 
I'd rather see hwinfo dropped.

Could you please let me know, where hwinfo info is used in gosa and
debian-edu and if it would be possible to replace that with something
else so we can drop hwinfo.

(apache) [AWIDON] 
<URL:https://lists.debian.org/debian-edu/2013/10/msg00140.html > 

I want to publish the mod_rewrite settings for debian-edu as it didn't 
work even if the system said so.

Pls. change in: 
/etc/apache2/sites-available/debian-edu-default and/or 
debian-edu-ssl-default

AllowOverride None
in
AllowOverride All 
or
AllowOverride FileInfo

Like mentioned here: 
http://willjackson.org/blog/enable-clean-urls-drupal-debian-7-wheezy

Background: An application was always complaining that mod_rewrite 
wasn't enabled - even the symlink in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled existed. 
Also, when entering the command: a2enmod rewrite I got: rewrite already 
enabled

Since editing /debian-edu-default the app worked fine.

(ftp://ftp.skolelinux.org fails) [Giorgio, Nigel, AWIDON]
<URL: https://lists.debian.org/debian-edu/2013/11/msg00018.html >
<URL: https://lists.debian.org/debian-edu/2013/11/msg00019.html >
<URL: https://lists.debian.org/debian-edu/2013/11/msg00036.html >

[IMO the ftp service on administrator.skolelinux.org should be checked, 
seems to be misconfigured/broken.]

(minimal profile) [pere]
<URL: https://lists.debian.org/debian-edu/2014/03/msg00028.html >

We install gosa-desktop in the minimal profile, which pull in
konqueror, which pull in kde and vlc.

I guess gosa-desktop should be moved from the networked task into a new 
networked the desktop tasks, to avoid it, but wonder if there are other 
solutions out there that do not require a new task.  We could move and 
duplicate its entry in the roaming-workstation and workstation tasks 
instead of creating a new task they both pull in. What should we do to 
reduce the disk footprint of the minimal profile?

Status: open, workaround in unstable/wheezy-test: d-e-install_1.723

(slbackup) [Nigel]
<URL: https://lists.debian.org/debian-edu/2013/09/msg00150.html >

drop-down in the web interface is empty.
