Intrepid Inactive

Filed under: Blogging,Security,Ubuntu,Ubuntu-Server — kees @ 5:00 pm

Intrepid is now officially at end-of-life.

Looking back through my build logs, it seems my desktop did 1340 builds, spending 70 hours, 38 minutes, and 49 seconds doing builds during the development cycle of Intrepid. Once released, it performed an additional 123 builds, taking 19 hours, 29 minutes, and 48 seconds for security updates. As before, these times obviously don’t include patch hunting/development, failed builds, testing, stuff done on my laptop or the porting machines, etc.

Thank you Intrepid! You were the first release to carry the full set of by-default hardened compiler flags.

Debian maintainer scripts diagrams

Filed under: Blogging,Debian,Ubuntu — kees @ 2:27 pm

Since the Debian Women Wiki is on hiatus, I found myself without the handy Maintainer Scripts diagrams today. So, I recovered it from Google’s cache, and put it up on the main Debian wiki: MaintainerScripts.

I used a great tool to go from HTML back to MoinMoin syntax: html2wiki
