58 <p>This is the Debian project ftp-master server. Various informational
59 pages are available here.</p>
63 <h1>Archive signing key</h1>
65 <p>Information on the archive signing keys is available <a
66 href="/keys.html">here</a></p>
70 <h1>The ftpmaster team</h1>
72 <p>The members of ftpmaster currently are divided into three groups, FTP Master,FTP Assistants and FTP Trainee.</p>
73 <p>Members of FTP Master are:</p>
75 <li>Joerg Jaspert</li>
78 <p>The FTP Assistants are:</p>
80 <li>Frank Lichtenheld</li>
81 <li>Mike O'Connor</li>
82 <li>Alexander Reichle-Schmehl</li>
84 <li>Barry deFreese</li>
85 <li>Torsten Werner</li>
88 <p>This information (and more like it) is available from
89 <a href="http://www.debian.org/intro/organization">Debian's Organizational Structure</a>.</p>
91 <p>The FTP Master role, unix group <tt>debadmin</tt>, is responsible for:</p>
93 <li>Keep the archive running</li>
94 <li>Keep the archive legal</li>
95 <li>Support the teams that depend on it (Release, Security, soon backports/volatile)</li>
96 <li>Keep the archive uptodate with the requirements of the project</li>
99 <p>The FTP Assistent role, unix group <tt>ftpteam</tt>, created in 2005,
100 allows the addition of people to the FTP Team without having to hand out
101 full FTP Master rights. It allows</p>
103 <li>to process NEW,</li>
104 <li>to handle overrides,</li>
105 <li>to remove packages.</li>
108 <p>The FTP Trainee role, group <tt>ftptrainee</tt>, was created in 2008 to allow easy training and testing of future team members.</p>
109 <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>
114 <p>dak (Debian Archive Kit) is the collection of scripts that have replaced dinstall and friends.</p>
116 <p>The source is managed in git and is available
117 from: <a href="http://ftp-master.debian.org/git/">http://ftp-master.debian.org/git/</a></p>
122 <p>The dinstall portion of dak is run at the following times:</p>
129 <p>The status of the dinstall run can be checked by looking at
130 <a href="http://ftp-master.debian.org/dinstall.status">http://ftp-master.debian.org/dinstall.status</a>
135 <h1>New Packages</h1>
136 <p>New Packages uploaded to the archive, but not yet accepted,
137 can be <a href="http://ftp-master.debian.org/new.html">seen here</a>.
138 Packages uploaded and accepted, but not yet installed into the pool
139 locations are to be found <a href="http://incoming.debian.org">here</a>,
140 until the daily cron run moves them into the pool.</p>
144 <h1>Deferred Packages</h1>
145 <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>
148 <h1>Pending removals</h1>
149 <p>Packages which are scheduled to be removed from Debian
150 are <a href="removals.html">shown here</a> and also on the
151 <a href="http://bugs.debian.org/ftp.debian.org">ftp bugpage</a>.
156 <h1>Removed packages</h1>
157 <p>To find what packages (and why) have been removed you
158 can view the <a href="removals.txt">log of removals</a>.
159 This log contains the entries for this year only, to view
160 older removal log entries follow one of the following links.

174 Additionally we provide a <a href="removals-full.txt">full
175 log of all removals</a>, in case you need to search in more
176 than one year. Be careful, this file is huge (more than
177 5.5MB at the time of writing this).
180 If you want you can also follow removals via
181 <a href="http://ftp-master.debian.org/~joerg/removals/removals.rss">the RSS
187 <h1>Cruft Report</h1>
188 <p>Some packages which needs to be removed manually are found in
189 <a href="cruft-report-daily.txt">the cruft-report</a>.</p>
194 <p>Squeeze is testing, sid is unstable. For more details please look
195 at the <a href="http://www.debian.org/devel/testing">testing</a> pages.</p>
200 <p>Packages uploaded to proposed-updated which have not yet been accepted by
201 the stable release managers can be seen
202 <a href="http://ftp-master.debian.org/proposed-updates.html">here.</a></p>
205 <div id="rejections">
206 <h1>Deciphering rejections</h1>
207 <p>If your package has been rejected and you don't understand why,
208 check the <a href="reject.html">explanations</a> of the
209 sometimes cryptic rejection messages.</p>
210 <p>You may also want to look at
211 <a href="http://ftp-master.debian.org/REJECT-FAQ.html">the REJECT-FAQ</a>.</p>
214 <div id="lintianrejects">
215 <h1>Lintian Autorejects</h1>
216 <p>Packages failing a defined set of lintian tags will no
217 longer be accepted into the archive, but get rejected immediately.</p>
219 <p>Those automated rejects will only be done on sourceful uploads to
220 unstable and experimental.</p>
222 <p>As there are certain lintian tags that should only appear in very rare
223 cases we have created two categories:
226 <dd>Tags listed here *can* be overriden by the maintainer using the normal
227 lintian override mechanism. Of course this should only be done if you
228 have a technically sound reason why your package needs to break in such a
232 <dd>Tags listed here can not be overridden. Those are tags
233 corresponding to packaging errors serious enough to mark a
234 package unfit for the archive and should never happen. In
235 fact, most of the tags listed do not appear in our archive
236 currently, the few packages listed below should be easily
237 fixable with their next upload.
241 <p>The current list of tags can be <a href="static/lintian.tags">found here</a>.
