Subject: [buug] older LINUX magazines coming to BUUG meeting today
Message-ID: <1184853902.469f6f8e6bbb8@webmail.rawbw.com>

I snagged a pile of mostly older LINUX magazines recently.
I'll bring them to today's BUUG meeting.
Whatever I can't give away by 2007-07-25 will probably head to
mixed paper recycling.
If you want to make other arrangements to pick them up, let me know.

If you are attending this event or could attend it, please let us know at
campaigns at fsf.org. There is an important point about the effect on free
software of the copyright reform proposal being discussed that needs to be
raised, and we'd really like to make sure someone is there to raise it.

Subject: [buug] debian package signing
Message-ID: <876444w62c.fsf@unicorn.ahiker.homeip.net>


Hi, I have several personal debs that I keep on a server and include in
my apt sources (using a line like

deb ssh://foo.bar.com /var/local/debian/

in my sources.list file).  However, each time I update one of them and
proceed to install the update with aptitude, I get the big fat red
warning "untrusted versions of the packages will be installed".  This
happens despite the following facts:

1/ when I build the package, I use "dpkg-buildpackage -k0123ABCD"
to include a gpg signature

2/ I have added the key 0123ABCD to my apt trusted keys using
"apt-key add"

3/ this URL seems to indicate that the current dpkg supports per-package
signatures

http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/securing-debian-howto/ch7.en.html#s-deb-pack-sign

(you have to scroll down to subsection 7.4.5 to see what I am talking about)

So, can I avoid this nuisance other than setting up a full mirror-like
archive with Release files and all?
