RCBW - week #13

Here are this week squashes, by yours truly:

30/11/2009 bug #499516 - drbd8-utils - avoid stop HA cluster during upgrades (sponsor upload by Iustin Pop)
01/12/2009 bug #530673 - xsmbrowser - avoid passing -N/-U together (patch by Michael Bode)
02/12/2009 bug #510567 - libgpgme11 - enable support for gpgconf (patch by Sven Eckelmann)
03/12/2009 bug #553162 - icomlib - add missing ${shlibs:Depends} (bonus points: fix kfreebsd build)
04/12/2009 bug #553223 - ldapdns - add missing ${shlibs:Depends} (malus points: fought with Yada)
05/12/2009 bug #553250 - posixlock - add missing ${shlibs/misc:Depends}
06/12/2009 bug #552769 - leptonlib - remove /usr/bin/ subdir

And here are the usual highlights:

Luk's list has worked worse than last week, since last weekend BSPs have stolen "my" bugs!
in fact, a lot of people is stealing my bugs (i.e., bugs that I had put on my watch list): hello azeem, gregoa, frankie, ...
That's very good, I now have the feeling that NMU enthusiasm is growing
having to deal with Yada for ldapdns has been, errr, an experience
Debian News mentioned RCBW, I'm flattered!
(BTW, anyone knows why Debian News is not on -planet? I'm subscribed to it cause it is very useful, but it seems pointless not to have it on Planet, given how many other less-Debian-related-posts we have there ...)

Read available comments below or add your own.

Zack, to my understanding, Debian Planet has a policy of allowing only contributor personal blogs. I would be happy to add it to planet if it is not the case

yada

Congratulations on fixing the bug in ldapdns; I had a look at it too but lost the battle against yada

(And your RCBW -- together with the BSP last weekend -- indeed raised my motivation for fighting RC bugs.)

Flattered

(Nitpick alert) I think you're flattered. I wouldn't want you to be flattened; else you won't be able to fix more bugs till you're filled up again! ;-)

re: flattered

errr, quite so Kumar, thanks for spotting the (quite bad) typo :-)

re: yada

actually, I was really near to lose the battle with yada, then I discovered /usr/share/doc/yada-doc/yada.txt.gz , maybe it will help you next time (but I hope you will not face the need actually :-) )

the fact that I've motivated you, is enough as a reward for all the NMUs: kudos to the master (you) which did the most upload that actually got delivered in Lenny.
