Debian > Debian GNU > Debian GNU/Hurd


This page references all the things we want to do in priority.

  • Good archive coverage.
  • Up-to-dateness.
  • debian-installer
    • No known issue
    • (./) Be able to install from official mirrors

      • (./) isc-dhcp, now fixed

    • (./) d-i daily builds

    • debian-cd daily builds
      • Depends on a Jessie dist
  • buildd
    • (./) ironforge.sceen.net

    • rossini.debian.net (very slow hardware: Atom)
    • (./) mahler.debian.net

    • bach.debian.net & mozart.debian.net, hard disk seems dead.

    • {X} security

    • {X} DSA

      • wants port to be release-considered first.
  • Get Xorg + gnome/kde/xfce/lxde (lxde is working, xfce should work, kde is missing working dbus (due to local socket auth and bugs in select() cornercases)) + some webbrowser working (iceweasel 30 works, patch available for fixing https in 739658).

  • No more binaries built in "use debian-ports" era (http://lists.debian.org/debian-hurd/2013/07/msg00014.html):

  • Basic ACPI support
    • (./) Poweroff is now supported

  • DSA concerns
    • (./) Network support

      • linux 2.6.32 drivers.
    • (./) Memory leak issues

      • (./) Fixed by rbraun's patches, > 2 weeks buildd uptime now (reboots now due to erratic build scripts (e.g. make -j), or kernel / core system upgrades)

    • (./) Firewall support

    • (./) puppet support

    • (./) SATA support

  • (./) proper dhcp support in installed system

    • (./) use ifup/ifdown instead of translators entry

  • (./) Switch by default to plain sysv startup

  • (./) fix "su" to root discrepancy (PATH does not include sbin etc.).
