debootstrap’s now team maintained under the debian-installer subversion repository; uploaders are Joey Hess, Frans Pop, Junichi Uekawa and myself. Rumours are Colin Watson might be joining in too. There’s a few changes committed, but an upload hasn’t been made yet — at least last I checked. Frans is applying pressure to bump the version to 1.0, as he seems to think it’s ready for production use.<\/p>\n

ifupdown’s had a maintainer upload, albeit to experimental — consider it a response to the competitive threat of madduck’s netconf. Changes are pretty minimal — it now uses iproute instead of ifconfig, there’s a “-o” option for ifup that lets you say things like “ifup -o wireless_essid=DebConf7 eth1” instead of having to edit \/etc\/network\/interfaces. There’s a couple of backwards-incompatible changes unfortunately, so some other development’s needed before it will be suitable for unstable.<\/p>\n

In other red-letter news, the bzr archive for dak<\/a> is up to date compared to what’s in use on ftp-master. Take advantage while you can! dak continues to stand for “debian-archive-kit”, not “debian-archive-kilt” however.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
