Debian > Debian GNU > Debian GNU/Hurd
This page attempts to be a reference for all resources related to Debian GNU/Hurd that can be useful for users and developers. Feel free to add more stuff as you see fit.
"In a discussion with the Debian Hurd porters it was decided that the Hurd port stays on FTPMaster until Wheezy is released. Should they have managed to get the port into a state that it is released together with all the others (probably as a technology preview), it is kept in the archive. Should they not manage this the port will be removed from the main archive and move fully to debian-ports.org."1
What is Debian GNU/Hurd ?
Debian GNU/Hurd is an operating system from Debian, but which uses GNU Hurd, which a set of servers, running on top of the GNU Mach microkernel instead of the kernel named Linux (thus the name Debian GNU/Hurd). Some day, most applications will exist both in Debian GNU/Hurd and in Debian GNU/Linux.
Basic info
- Installation and testing:
http://www.debian.org/ports/hurd/hurd-install
Debian "Sid" debian-installer images available http://people.debian.org/~sthibault/hurd-i386/installer/cdimage/.
- This is the prefered method of install.

#debian-hurd on irc.debian.org
Goals for releasing in wheezy
- buildd
- security
- DSA
- proper dhcp support in installed system
- use ifup/ifdown instead of translators entry?
packages in debian-ports (those marked with need to be integrated in the main archive):
- cardmgr-gnumach
- wifi, can live without
- postpone
- console-driver-xkb
- we should probably just integrate it in the hurd package
- See the concerns on the mailing list archive (bug-hurd, "XKB's keymaps for the Hurd console")
- can postpone
- cvsfs
ITP: 669647
- gopherfs
ITP: 669648
grub2
- hyperestraier
- for w3m.
icon
- for lyx.
- ifupdown
- TODO
isc-dhcp
- Being Discussed directly with upstream
libusb
- This is just a stub. integrate in the main archive
lockdev
- netio
ITP: 669652
parted
psmisc
- dirty patch for PATH_MAX, TODO
- random-egd
- make it an alternative to Marcus' C implementation
- can live without
- can postpone
- screen
trivial fix on 522689 , fixed in experimental
- smbfs
ITP: 669653
- tarfs
ITP: 669654
- wireless-tools-gnumach
- just for wifi, can live without
- postpone
- cardmgr-gnumach
- Be able to install at least the base from official mirror (should be almost done, missing grub/parted, dhcp, ifupdown)
Integrate DDE to get nowadays' network support.
- Get Xorg + gnome/kde/xfce (xfce should work, kde is missing working dbus (due to local socket auth and bugs in select() cornercases)) + some webbrowser working (iceweasel 9 works, though not https).
Fix ext2fs uncleanness at reboot http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/open_issues/sync_but_still_unclean_filesystem.html
- Switch to plain sysv startup?
Enable console by default? (we now have proper kernel message relaying)
- fix "su" to root discrepancy (PATH does not include sbin etc.)
- Good archive coverage.
- We're at 77%, kfreebsd is at 88%. Although probably not reachable, we can probably do better with
ghc
- mono
gnat
ruby1.9.1
- We're at 77%, kfreebsd is at 88%. Although probably not reachable, we can probably do better with
Fix at least the required, important and standard packages from http://people.debian.org/~sthibault/out_of_date.txt
Try to fix the top of http://people.debian.org/~sthibault/graph-total-top.txt
Goals for later
- IPv6 support in d-i (after it is settled for linux).
upgrade libfuse compatibility to >= 2.6.5, with fuse_lowlevel.h
- add cpuid-based autoloading of libc0.3-i686
Developer info
- DD-accessible machines running GNU/Hurd:
hurd-i386: see ArchiveQualification/hurd-i386
Patches that are only needed for Debian (either because they're fixed-upstream, or because of their Debian-specific nature)
