Subject: requires the obsolete /etc/hotplug.d/ interface
Date: Sat, 12 Nov 2005 13:24:30 +0100

Package: waproamd
Version: 0.6-7
Severity: important

Your package installs files in the /etc/hotplug.d/ directory, but
does not provide an udev rules file. The /etc/hotplug.d/ interface has
been obsolete for a long time and I want to remove compatibility support
from udev as soon as possible.

I have never used this package and I do not know how it works, but after
a quick check it looks like you need a rule like:

SUBSYSTEM=="net", RUN+="/bin/sh -c '/lib/udev/waproamd.agent &'"


For more information about this you can look at the debian-devel@
threads of last october.
The libgphoto2 package is a good example of how to provide udev support,
please let me know if you have any doubts.
I will also be happy to review your changes before they are uploaded, if
you want.

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Do you plan to fix it soon or I can just remove support for hotplug.d/
from udev?
Please let me know if you need help or if I should review your changes.

Subject: waproamd has been removed from Debian, closing #338749
Date: Sat, 27 Dec 2008 10:15:23 GMT

Version: 0.6-9+rm

The waproamd package has been removed from Debian testing, unstable and
experimental, so I am now closing the bugs that were still opened
against it.

For more information about this package's removal, read
http://bugs.debian.org/509389 . That bug might give the reasons why
this package was removed, and suggestions of possible replacements.

Don't hesitate to reply to this mail if you have any question.

Thank you for your contribution to Debian.
