Issues which we need to fix for a release

documentation and its translations. Checkout the debian-edu-doc package from svn and run make status, then fix those FIXMEs.
before the release, we need to update the release version numbers in svn://trunk/src/build/CD-administrator/CONF-lenny* and in svn://trunk/src/debian-edu-install/version as well as in svn://trunk/src/debian-edu-install/debian/debian-edu-install.postinst (there the old version needs to be added) - read #1329 for the full story.
Issues which we would like to fix for a release
http://tinyurl.com/edulenny-releaseview-0 - all bugs, sorted by relevance
move http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Status/Lenny#NewFeaturesinLenny into the manual
OCS Inventory server is not installed properly, and the client do not automatically know how to connect to the server #1332.
?Browser plugin for multimedia is unable to handle some popular video sites. (pere: FIXED?) (needs list which!)
Some popular flash sites do not work out of the box. (needs list which!) Got a list of test pages on DebianEdu/FlashInDebianEdu.
Fixed Issues
- Nagios is now configured based on sitesummary data.
- The diskless workstation setup should be enabled by default on thin client servers. This is implemented for the base network PXE menu.
#1364: Windows users cannot logon against tjener pdc: sambaPwdLastSet became a mandatory ldapsam attribute. (SambaLDAP)
Should be fixed at svn rev.58731, (debian-edu-config >1.427~svn58642)
Installation from DVD of ltspserver-profile stops. #1354
Fixed at /trunk/src/build/CD-administrator/hintpkgs-lenny(-test)?.txt - Rev 58429
Choose debian edu profile in text mode debian-edu expert: non-functional #1315
Works fine for netinstall built 02-08-2009
Squid disk usage is not dynamically scaled to match the partition size available. Hardcoded to 100 MB in the squid.conf file. Should be 90% 80% of disk space, as recommended by squid documentation.
Done at svn rev.58516 (debian-edu-config >1.426~svn58344).
Default browser (Iceweasel) refuses to connect to https://www/ by default because it do not like the self signed certificate. #1328
Fixed at svn rev.58503 (debian-edu-config >1.426~svn58343).
pdnsd needs to be configured and bind kicked out. see: DebianEdu/LdapifyServices
- debian-edu-doc: make get-orig-source fails, so no new versions can be build atm.
we need to check if adding machines with lwat is enough to put them in dhcp. #1333 499707 also see DebianEdu/Lwat (Seams to work with updated ../lwat/config.php )
- installing german standalone installs a belgian kde UI.
Fixed with localization-config >1.03
- LWAT is unable to connet to the LDAP server. Perhaps related to the gnutls issue, or because we use a snake-oil certificate.
Works now. Problem was that the certificate of the ldapserver referenced in ldap.conf (/etc/ldap/ssl...) was not readable by the apache process.
- the profile question is garbled for some languages (eg. german) in the text installer.
Should be fixed with svn-version (needs upload to Debian)
Thin-clients fail to load: "Connection refused" - #1320
the partition sizes generated by the installer are too small, which is worked around by extending partitions during installation, but this lead to fsck on first boot because of a misfeature in online ext3 resizing. a fix is needed to make sure the minimum partition sizes are large enough to avoid resizing during normal installs. #1237
nagios3 - if you upgrade from a previous Debian Edu installation you need to run rm -rf /etc/nagios3/* ; cp -a /etc/nagios2/* /etc/nagios3/ - we need to confirm this actually works in our default setup. #1326
pkgsel failes to install octave cousing a error in the installer, when installing a thin client server profile(perhaps also workstation?) . rerunning the default selected step works. #1330 needs confirmation if still exists!
Installation doesn't find cdrom on SIS5513 IDE-chipset #1339
- drop sugar from expert mode. its not working yet.
exim4-daemon-heavy is missing for mainserver #1343
- installer: tasksel is broken (installing not needed desktop packages) - works (at least in lenny-test)
consolekit is leaking resources, need a oneline patch, http://patch-tracking.debian.net/patch/series/view/consolekit/0.3.0-2/11-unref-dbus-proxy.patch 521651 - this will either go into 5.0.1 or if it doesnt (and only gets into 5.0.2) we can upload a fixed package to our repo. Fixed in 5.0.1 (see bts and p.d.o)
#1367: New ldap attributes and settings for samba. (SambaLDAP)
- the shipped and installed Samba schema has been updated
- LWAT now adds required attributes when adding new entries (configured through debian-edu-config)
- We should switch to consolekit instead of obsolete libpam-foreground. Should be fixed, need verification (pere 2009-03-28).
- With a patch that is in our Lenny and Debian's Sid consolekit can fully replace libpam-foreground.
New Features in Lenny
List is moved to http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Documentation/Lenny/Features .
Upgrading to Lenny
There are some instructions in the documentation on upgrading an existing system to Lenny. For time being it only contains information on server upgrades.
Though in general Debian Edu doesn't support upgrades and people are advised to reinstall, we try to provide upgrade instructions on a best-effort base. Anyone attempting such an upgrade please contribute to this effort by testing the proposed solutions, fixing these instructions and adding other issues encountered.
