57 <p>This is the Debian project ftp-master server. Various informational
58 pages are available here.</p>
62 <h1>Archive signing key</h1>
64 <p>Information on the archive signing keys is available <a
65 href="/keys.html">here</a></p>
69 <h1>The ftpmaster team</h1>
71 <p>The members of ftpmaster currently are divided into three groups, FTP Master,FTP Assistants and FTP Trainee.</p>
72 <p>Members of FTP Master are:</p>
74 <li>Joerg Jaspert</li>
77 <p>The FTP Assistants are:</p>
79 <li>Frank Lichtenheld</li>
80 <li>Mike O'Connor</li>
81 <li>Alexander Reichle-Schmehl</li>
83 <li>Barry deFreese</li>
84 <li>Torsten Werner</li>
87 <p>This information (and more like it) is available from
88 <a href="http://www.debian.org/intro/organization">Debian's Organizational Structure</a>.</p>
90 <p>The FTP Master role, unix group <tt>debadmin</tt>, is responsible for:</p>
92 <li>Keep the archive running</li>
93 <li>Keep the archive legal</li>
94 <li>Support the teams that depend on it (Release, Security, soon backports/volatile)</li>
95 <li>Keep the archive uptodate with the requirements of the project</li>
98 <p>The FTP Assistent role, unix group <tt>ftpteam</tt>, created in 2005,
99 allows the addition of people to the FTP Team without having to hand out
100 full FTP Master rights. It allows</p>
102 <li>to process NEW,</li>
103 <li>to handle overrides,</li>
104 <li>to remove packages.</li>
107 <p>The FTP Trainee role, group <tt>ftptrainee</tt>, was created in 2008 to allow easy training and testing of future team members.</p>
108 <p>Trainees can look at NEW and do the usual package checks, but they can not actually accept or reject a package. Instead they leave a note, which an Assistant or Master reads and acts on.</p>
113 <p>dak (Debian Archive Kit) is the collection of scripts that have replaced dinstall and friends.</p>
115 <p>The source is managed in git and is available
116 from: <a href="http://ftp-master.debian.org/git/">http://ftp-master.debian.org/git/</a></p>
120 <h1>New Packages</h1>
121 <p>New Packages uploaded to the archive, but not yet accepted,
122 can be <a href="http://ftp-master.debian.org/new.html">seen here</a>.
123 Packages uploaded and accepted, but not yet installed into the pool
124 locations are to be found <a href="http://incoming.debian.org">here</a>,
125 until the daily cron run moves them into the pool.</p>
129 <h1>Deferred Packages</h1>
130 <p>Deferred Packages which were uploaded to a DELAYED queue and have not reached their specified delay can be <a href="http://ftp-master.debian.org/deferred.html">seen here</a>.</p> </div>
133 <h1>Pending removals</h1>
134 <p>Packages which are scheduled to be removed from Debian
135 are <a href="removals.html">shown here</a> and also on the
136 <a href="http://bugs.debian.org/ftp.debian.org">ftp bugpage</a>.
141 <h1>Removed packages</h1>
142 <p>To find what packages (and why) have been removed you
143 can view the <a href="removals.txt">log of removals</a>.
144 This log contains the entries for this year only, to view
145 older removal log entries follow one of the following links.
148 <li><a href="removals-2001.txt">log of removals for 2001</a></li>
149 <li><a href="removals-2002.txt">log of removals for 2002</a></li>

155 <li><a href="removals-2008.txt">log of removals for 2008</a></li>
158 Additionally we provide a <a href="removals-full.txt">full
159 log of all removals</a>, in case you need to search in more
160 than one year. Be careful, this file is huge (more than
161 5.5MB at the time of writing this).
164 If you want you can also follow removals via
165 <a href="http://ftp-master.debian.org/~joerg/removals/removals.rss">the RSS
171 <h1>Cruft Report</h1>
172 <p>Some packages which needs to be removed manually are found in
173 <a href="cruft-report-daily.txt">the cruft-report</a>.</p>
178 <p>Squeeze is testing, sid is unstable. For more details please look
179 at the <a href="http://www.debian.org/devel/testing">testing</a> pages.</p>
184 <p>Packages uploaded to proposed-updated which have not yet been accepted by
185 the stable release managers can be seen
186 <a href="http://ftp-master.debian.org/proposed-updates.html">here.</a></p>
189 <div id="rejections">
190 <h1>Deciphering rejections</h1>
191 <p>If your package has been rejected and you don't understand why,
192 check the <a href="reject.html">explanations</a> of the
193 sometimes cryptic rejection messages.</p>
194 <p>You may also want to look at
195 <a href="http://ftp-master.debian.org/REJECT-FAQ.html">the REJECT-FAQ</a>.</p>
198 <div id="lintianrejects">
199 <h1>Lintian Autorejects</h1>
200 <p>Packages failing a defined set of lintian tags will no
201 longer be accepted into the archive, but get rejected immediately.</p>
203 <p>Those automated rejects will only be done on sourceful uploads to
204 unstable and experimental.</p>
206 <p>As there are certain lintian tags that should only appear in very rare
207 cases we have created two categories:
210 <dd>Tags listed here *can* be overriden by the maintainer using the normal
211 lintian override mechanism. Of course this should only be done if you
212 have a technically sound reason why your package needs to break in such a
216 <dd>Tags listed here can not be overridden. Those are tags
217 corresponding to packaging errors serious enough to mark a
218 package unfit for the archive and should never happen. In
219 fact, most of the tags listed do not appear in our archive
220 currently, the few packages listed below should be easily
221 fixable with their next upload.
225 <p>The current list of tags can be <a href="static/lintian.tags">found here</a>.
