Query regarding wtmp log


wtmp man page says: the pair of terminal names |/} logs the old/new system
time when date(1) changes  it.
When I change the date/time, it is not logging the record to /var/log/wtmp.

could you please let me know if there is any settings to be done to log the
date change records, when user changes the date/time.

records are entered only when I run the below commands:
 writetmp oldtime
writetmp newtime

Please let me know if there is any other settings other than manually
writing as above

Thanks a lot!

Regards

Hardware compatibility test: draft proposal

Hi,

As I mentioned in my blog[1], I kindof like the suggestion that Bdale
came up with during Debconf that we write a hardware compatibility test
of sorts that hardware vendors could run on their own hardware to test
whether Debian works on their system. The rationale for such a test:
while most of us know how Debian works and how one should test whether
their hardware actually works with Debian, it is not reasonable to
expect the same of hardware vendors for /all/ GNU/Linux distributions
out there. According to Bdale, currently all other major operating
system vendors, including the commercial Linux distributions, already
provide such a test to the hardware vendors. For this purpose, it is
okay if such a test is interactive to some extent (after all, it is
something that you would run on a hardware prototype in a lab, not on
each and every production machine), although I'm thinking a hardware
compatibility test could be useful in more cases, where it might be
better if it wasn't interactive.

So, after more than twelve hours of boredom on an airplane and half a
night of not-being-able-to-sleep-due-to-jetlag, which is certainly
enough to think about this problem, I came up with the following things
such a system could need:

- It should be modular. People who maintain driver packages for
  particular hardware may want to write additional tests that a vendor
  may want to run; and if this particular package supports it, the
  driver package maintainer may want to provide pointers to a particular
  package so that an inexperienced user may be able to configure their
  hardware after running the test themselves.
- The different tests should each be able to communicate what type of

Proposal for collaborative maintenance of CAS related apps in Debian

Hello.

We (Michele Baldessari and myself) are announcing a project for
collaborative maintenance of packages related to CAS (Central
Authentication Services) in Debian.

CAS is a popular SSO authentication framework for web applications [0].

There already exist some CAS client libraries in Debian (for Perl) [1],
but many other variants or implementations for other languages currently
lack in Debian.
Also, there's currently no packaging of the CAS server software in
Debian.

We propose that interested potential maintainers join us in a CAS
packaging team, to collaboratively maintain such packages in Debian.

You may find more details at
http://wiki.debian.org/Teams/DebianCASPackaging and in alioth :
http://alioth.debian.org/projects/pkg-cas/

Feel free to contact us for more details at
pkg-cas-maintainers <at> lists.alioth.debian.org .

Bug#495643: Catalan DDTP issues

Package: general

From: Guillem Jover <guillem <at> debian.org>
Subject: Catalan DDTP issues

Hi,

The Catalan Translation file seems to have duped entries, and I think
it's missing several others, like dacco-eng-users.s, as seen at:

  <http://ftp.fi.debian.org/debian/dists/sid/main/i18n/Translation-ca>

I've not checked others, so it could be a general problem.

On the DDTSS we have 42 pending translations for stuff that's quite
specialized, which blocks translations for more important and common
packages. I guess this is due to the force fetch problems mentioned
before on the i18n list. Could someone please reset the pending list?

thanks,
guillem
