Version: 2.5.9-5

Hi.

patch still suggests diff-doc which is a transitional package. Please  
use diffutils-doc.

Best wishes :)
Chris.

sounds to me like:

libsilc-1.1 should be built with -lpthread -ldl
libsilcclient-1.1 should be built with -lsilc

i don't have time to try it right now, unfortunately :(

Bug#558975: avahi: FTBFS on hurd-i386: wrong network interface backend used

Package: avahi
Version: 0.6.25-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch
User: debian-hurd <at> lists.debian.org
Usertags: hurd

Hi,

currently[1] avahi does not compile on GNU/Hurd.

The scenario is the following: in avahi-core, three different network
interface backends,
- iface-linux.c (compiled if linux/netlink.h is found)
- iface-pfroute.c (compiled if net/route.h is found)
- iface-none.c (compiled in the remaining cases)
on Hurd, it finds net/route.h so it tries to compile the pfroute backend; the
problem is that the backend uses net/if_dl.h and the rt_* network stuff,
unavailable on the Hurd.
The proposed patch extends the configure check for net/route.h by adding
net/if_dl.h among the includes needed for the check, so it will pass if both
net/route.h and net/if_dl.h are available.

Although the pfroute backend is used by *freebsd-*, the change shouldn't
affect it.

Bug#558976: New upstream 0.11.6 available

Package: trac
Version: 0.11.5-5
Severity: wishlist

A new upstream version 0.11.6 is available. See
http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/ChangeLog#a0.11.6
for changes. I will work on the package in the next week or so.
As always, you can expect a backport to Debian 5.0 ("lenny"), too.

I'm using pulseaudio, and I've got the libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio
package installed, so I suppose it has to be something else.

  OK, I'm preparing an upload that just ignores EAGAIN with a warning
message for the time being.

Bug#447034: insufficient docs for qemu-make-debian-root

Package: qemu-user
Version: 0.11.0-6
Severity: wishlist

Thank you for packaging qemu.

I suggest documenting -s usage and stopping execution on error (eg
[/usr]/sbin not in path of non-root caller). The following patch is
enough.

This script is documented in /usr/share/doc/qemu-kvm/README.Debian.gz
in package qemu-kvm and provided by another package, namely
qemu-user. Please consider mentionning qemu-user in README.Debian.

Bug#558425: Debian bug #558425: most probably not related to dvipdfmx

Hello,

some remarks about this bug:

1) xelatex uses xdvipdfmx, a modified version of dvipdfmx developed
for XeTeX. It is part of the texlive-xetex package.

2) With my CVS version of dvipdfmx, PS inclusion works fine.

3) Maybe the problem is related to the first issue mentioned in
http://project.ktug.or.kr/pipermail/dvipdfmx/2009-August/000111.html

Best,

Bug#558977: libhtml-prototype-perl: CVE-2007-2383 and CVE-2008-7720

package: libhtml-prototype-perl
version: 1.48-1
severity: serious
tags: security

Hi,

Your package contains an embedded version of prototype.js that is
vulnerable to either CVE-2007-2383 (affecting prototype.js before 1.5.1)
[0], CVE-2008-7220 (affecting prototype.js before 1.6.0.2) [1], or both.

Your package embeds the following prototype.js versions:

  sid: 1.4.0
  lenny: 1.4.0
  etch: 1.4.0

This is a mass-filing, and the only checking done so far is a version
comparison, so please determine whether or not your package is itself
affected or not.  If it is not affected please close the bug with a
message indicating this along with what you did to check.

The version of your package specified above is the earliest version
with the affected embedded code.  If this version is in one or both of
the stable releases and you are affected, please coordinate with the
release team to prepare a proposed-update for your package to
stable/oldstable.

There are patches available for CVE-2007-2383 [2] and a backport for
prototypejs 1.5 for CVE-2008-7720 [3].

Hi Xavier,

I've confirmed your report and I've found this bug is still present on
my prospective package for version 1.90.

After checking the package I haven't found a reason for this issue, so I
filed a bug report on the bug track system of asymptote developers
asking for their review so we can determinat if this is a uptream issue
or a packageing related issue.

Thanks a lot for reporting, and feel free to provide more information
here or directly on their tracker.

Best regards,
 Ruben Molina
