unofficial hurd package with keyboard/mouse repeater
Hi,
I just found out that I had actually uploaded the test Hurd package I
did last week to
http://people.debian.org/~mbanck/hurd/hurd_20040508-2+hurd.1_hurd-i386.deb
This is the changelog:
* debian/local/rc: Removed.
* debian/patches/rc.patch: New file. (Closes: #254147)
* debian/hurd.install: Install tmp/libexec/rc.
* debian/patches/console_repeater.diff: New patch by Marco Gerards.
* debian/patches/libcons_repeater.diff: New patch by Marco Gerards.
* Rebuilt against glibc_2.3.2.ds1-16.
(actually, there are two more patches included, netfs_io_select.diff and
netfs_nonblock.diff, which are needed to get the mouse/keyboard
translator to work with X11. I forgot to mention them in the changelog)
It fixes the '/libexec/rc is not executable' bug, but not the '/bin/login
is not suid' bug. Also it is built against glibc-2.3.2, so I'd be
interested whether people still see the linkref problem (running
'ls -lR /' resulting in some files having insane link count references,
like
-rwsr-xr-x 634391 root root 35512 Jul 27 16:39 /bin/login
(You need coreutils-5.2.1 in order to have a chance to see this bug,
AFAIK)
Michael
