This page references all the things we want to do in priority.
- Good archive coverage.
- We're at 80.5%, kfreebsd was at 85% when it entered wheezy. We can probably do better with
- mono
- fpc
- nodejs
Try to fix the top of http://people.debian.org/~sthibault/graph-total-top.txt
- We're at 80.5%, kfreebsd was at 85% when it entered wheezy. We can probably do better with
- Up-to-dateness.
- We're at 98.25%, we should get better, like at least 98.5%.
Either fix or remove packages from http://people.debian.org/~sthibault/out_of_date.txt
so that https://buildd.debian.org/stats/graph2-week-big.png improves
- debian-installer
Be able to install from official mirrors
isc-dhcp, now fixed
d-i daily builds
- debian-cd daily builds
- buildd
- security
- DSA
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 29 works, though not yet https, but patch available in 739658).
No more binaries built in "use debian-ports" era (http://lists.debian.org/debian-hurd/2013/07/msg00014.html):
- emacs23
- lost cause, will be dropped once emacs24 is made default
- xserver-xorg-video-openchrome, to just remove
- emacs23
- Basic ACPI support (but what? Just poweroff? (a patch is pending commit for that part))
- DSA concerns
Memory leak issues
Fixed by rbraun's patches, > 14 day buildd uptime now (crashes 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.), apparently simply because shadow's su vs coreutils' su.
see http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.utilities.util-linux-ng/6488
newer coreutils drops su (http://lists.debian.org/debian-hurd/2013/07/msg00057.html), switch to util-linux' su once util-linux is updated
or rather switch to shadow's, like linux, 737805
