DaemonFCit's an open source and free software licenseOct 07 17:28
DaemonFCand you have plenty of other software licensed similarly no doubtOct 07 17:28
azalynhonestly, the symlinks problem seems completely stupid and invalid. i think he's grasping at straws.Oct 07 17:28
azalynit's normal to create new programs with the same filenames, think of POSIX apps like sed and awk and so on..Oct 07 17:29
azalynthe naming issue is about the formal name of the program, not the filename.Oct 07 17:29
azalynwhich is why gnu's sed is formally called "GNU sed", but still has 'sed' as a command.Oct 07 17:30
azalynsimilarly, you can say "CDRKIT mkisofs" or something, and still use the same command name.Oct 07 17:30

azalynthese are his gpl violation claimsOct 07 17:48
azalynall of those seem to be bunk apart from maybe 2aOct 07 17:48
azalyni'm reading the GPL right now.Oct 07 17:48
azalynthe gpl does mention that you have to mention the date of changes and what not... but it's vague.. wouldn't SCMs satisfy the requirement, i wonder? or do the modification notices really HAVE to be in the code..Oct 07 17:49
azalynand is that just for the first time you modify the file after forking? or everytime you modify it? it seems like a strange requirement, i'm not sure what the FSF means by it.Oct 07 17:50
azalynas for the german copyright laws or whatever, those aren't valid because debian is not based in germany as far as i know...Oct 07 17:51
amarsh04I like how with the debian package kernel-package one can unpack the github/kernel.org source and run "make-kpkg --config menuconfig --initrd linux-image" and you get a kernel that works fine with the rest of the distributionOct 07 17:53
amarsh04add "--arch i386 --cross-compile -" and you can build a 32 bit x86 kernel on an x86-64 systemOct 07 17:55

*XFaCE has quit (Quit: XFaCE)Oct 07 17:57
amarsh04the only gentoo I use is sysrescuecd, haven't the patience to compile too muchOct 07 17:57
azalyni'm starting to lose patience with it too.Oct 07 17:58
azalyni used to think about switching to debian, but the more i learn about them, the less i like them.Oct 07 17:58
azalynthey seem to have this "my way or the highway" attitude.Oct 07 17:58
amarsh04I keep sysrescuecd and the grub-rescue cd on cd-rw's for any recovery situations or resizing the root partitionOct 07 17:59
azalynthe debian openssl issue awhile back i think illustrates my point.Oct 07 18:00
azalynthat wasn't an honest mistake. it was just pure incompetence.Oct 07 18:00
azalynand worse yet, the guy that made the error still works at the project, and was even promoted to some fairly high management position in the projectOct 07 18:00
azalynno accountability for failure.Oct 07 18:01
amarsh04It's not too difficult to rebuild packages from source (apt-get build-dep foo;apt-get source foo;cd foo-x.yz; debuild -b;cd ..;dpkg -i foo-*x.yz*debOct 07 18:01
azalynwhat i want really, is slackware, but with a package manager that features dependency resolution.Oct 07 18:01
azalynso i've considered arch linux.Oct 07 18:01
azalynwhich seems like the closest thing.Oct 07 18:02
amarsh04the problem as I understood it was not plainly labelling where variables were meant to be left uninitialisedOct 07 18:02
azalynthe problem is this guy should never have been in charge of a project like openssl in the first place. my understanding is that uninitialized memory is a side effect of writing a PRNG in order to achieve enough randomness or something.Oct 07 18:04
azalynanyone with even a bit of cryptography knowledge would have known why valgrind was reporting that error.Oct 07 18:05
azalynand that it was normal.Oct 07 18:05
azalynwhy would you have a maintainer of openssl, that isn't familiar with cryptography?Oct 07 18:05

DaemonFClike Indiana, which just passed a law stating it's not statutory rape as long as you are within 3 years of age of each other even if one is over 18Oct 07 20:27
DaemonFCbecause up until then they were sending 18 year olds to prison for having sex with their girlfriend, who may have been 1 month youngerOct 07 20:27
DaemonFCthe laws are stupid and they got this way because if you even start talking about them being unfair as written, you are called a child molester sympathizer or somethingOct 07 20:28
DaemonFCso was it obvious that with Richard Stallman talking some sense in an interview that someone would come back later and try to brand him?Oct 07 20:29

DaemonFCtvp: Watch what happens if someone starts saying marijuana is harmlessOct 07 20:30

DaemonFClike heroin or cocaine or methOct 07 20:31
DaemonFCthen they bring up terroristsOct 07 20:31
DaemonFCpeople who aren't very intelligent have to turn themselves into shock jockeys to wage an argument and get noticedOct 07 20:31
DaemonFCI think, a lot of the things that are harmless, mostly harmless, or not very interesting have to be puffed up to sound worse than they actually areOct 07 20:34
DaemonFCif the religious establishment loses an inch, they fear that the rest of their bullshit could be nextOct 07 20:34

schestowitz"It comes as no surprise that Margie Phelps of the infamous Westboro Baptist Church has already declared the church's intention to picket Steve Jobs's funeral. What is interesting, is that she did so using an iPhone. The 142 characters of wrath read: "Westboro will picket his funeral.He[sic] had a huge platform; gave God no glory & taught sin. MT @AP: Apple co-founder Steve Jobs has died at 56.""Oct 07 22:26
