RC bugs 2012/50

have I said before that we are running out of easy RC bugs? the list is a bit short this week:
  • #677861 – src:lftp: "lftp: FTBFS[kfreebsd-i386]: error: conflicting declaration 'typedef __int32_t gl_intptr_t'"
    sponsor upload to t-p-u from Ivo De Decker
  • #680100 – libatomic-ops: "libatomic-ops/powerpc: FTBFS: eats all disk space in the known universe (almost, anyway)"
    backport fix for t-p-u, upload with maintainer's and release team's permission
  • #691015 – conserver-client: "conserver-client: fails to upgrade from testing: Can't locate Tie/Hash/NamedCapture.pm in @INC"
    update regexp to use numbered capture groups, upload to DELAYED/2
to make up for this poor performance, I've uploaded ~14 new lib.*-perl packages to the NEW queue yesterday & today :)

RC bugs 2012/46

it's seems we're starting to run out of RC bugs with the implicit usertag easy-enough-for-gregoa

what I've done in the last days besides working on the bugs listed below is to tag quite a few bugs pending that were uploaded into a DELAYED queue. – please try to remember to set this tag on delayed NMUs, nmudiff is quite convenient here.
  • #666334 – src:gnustep-back: "FTBFS: build-arch problems with patch applying and installation of files generated only in build-indep target"
    fix debian/rules, upload to DELAYED/2
  • #682416 – smstools: "smstools: smsd -s produces Segmentation fault"
    backport fix from latest upstream release, upload to DELAYED/2
  • #689249 – mediawiki-extensions-math: "mediawiki-extensions-math: installs files in /usr/share/mediawiki/extensions which is a symlink in the mediawiki package"
    send a patch to the BTS
  • #691570 – src:doc-linux-fr: "Build-depends on mirror, scheduled to be removed"
    sponsor QA upload by Ivo De Decker
  • #692890 – fbdesk: "fbdesk: no icons on desktop"
    tag unreproducible, lower severity
  • #693002 – libimager-perl: "libimager-perl: breaks libimager-qrcode-perl"
    bug triaging (pkg-perl)
