Debian/Ubuntu packages of bluefish-unstable for amd64

Debian- and Ubuntu-packages of bluefish-unstable - the development series of bluefish - for the amd64 architecture are now available. Thanks to Olivier Sessink for providing a build-daemon.

Update to Lenny

Now that Lenny has been released I've updated some machines and found just one flaw. There is a cvsd installation, which has been extended with an OpenSSH server. After the upgrade the server refused the connection. Enabling debugging output showed:

sshd[...]: fatal: ssh_selinux_getctxbyname: ssh_selinux_getctxbyname: security_getenforce() failed

in the log. Searching the web a bit revealed, that the CHROOT now needs a mounted /proc. Done and everything works :)

Server paths broken

Because of a broken alias, the path /ubuntu/dists/intrepid/ was not available and resulted in a 404 error. This has been fixed now.

Update

/ubuntu/pool/ should also work (again) now. Thanks to Peter M. for the information.

bluefish-unstable packages for Etch removed from repository

The bluefish-unstable packages for Etch have been removed from the repository. The 1.1 development series has been superseeded by the 1.3 series (1.0 is still the current stable series!), which needs Glib/Gtk versions higher than available in Etch. Unfortunately, the necessary versions are also not available from backports.org. So I can't build packages for Etch anymore :(.

If you have some self-packaged or -compiled versions of these libraries, you can of course build the application from its source.

Ubuntu Hardy repository replaced by Intrepid repository

The Ubuntu Hardy repository has been dropped and replaced by an Intrepid repository. If you need the bluefish-unstable package for an Ubuntu Hardy installation, keep the deb-src entry from the previous sources.list snippet, get the source and the build-dependencies. Then build the package(s) and install them.

apt-get source bluefish-unstable
apt-get build-dep bluefish-unstable
cd bluefish-unstable-version
debuild -us -uc
...
dpkg -i package.deb

The same goes for building the package for a different architecture than i386!

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/ snippets available for download

I now provide small snippets to download into the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory, so you don't have to edit /etc/apt/sources.list directly. The necessary commands are described described here. Every snippet is limited to one release. So if you want to have the entries for more than one release (e.g. Sid+Experimental) you have to download several files.

Repository key expired IV

The repository-key has expired at October 16th 2008. The new expiration date of the renewed key is October 16th 2009. You will have to update the key in your apt keyring. It can be found at the pgp.mit.edu keyserver or locally in ASCII format at wgdd_archive_key.asc. Detailed information can be found here.
