UsLI don't really understand the difference here, this is from apt: network-manager/stable 1.42.4-1+deb12u1devuan1 amd64 [upgradable from: 1.42.4-1devuan1]03:03
gnarfacehmm...03:05
UsLwhat was it.. apt-diff, can't remember, that lists differences? Would it tell me what's new?03:05
gnarfaceyea, looks like they should be the same thing so maybe just a correction of the version string format but better get clarification from someone who knows for sure03:05
gnarfacemaybe you're thinking of apt-listchanges? not sure03:06
UsLthat's probably the one, thanks03:07
gnarfacenp03:09
UsL"is Dpkg::Tools::Options::/usr/bin/apt-listchanges::InfoFD set to 20?"  that's a good question. I guess I need to rtfm03:12
UsLtomorrows problem. Gnight.03:14
plasma41UsL: If I'm not mistaken, the difference between the Devuan versions 1.42.4-1devuan1 and 1.42.4-1+deb12u1devuan1 will consist of the differences between the Debian versions 1.42.4-1 and 1.42.4-1+deb12u1 upon which they are based. According to https://tracker.debian.org/media/packages/n/network-manager/changelog-1.42.4-1deb12u1 that would be a fix for CVE-2024-6501.17:47
UsLalright. So, deb12u1 is like an update (u1) but not significant enough to render a minor number (.4-1) change.17:59
UsL4-2 would have been logical in my mind, but I guess there are reasons for it to remain17:59
plasma41UsL: Because 1.42.4-1 was already in stable (Debian 12 Bookworm) when this issue was found and fixed, the fixed package got the "+deb12u1" suffix. If the issue had been found when 1.42.4-1 was still in testing/unstable, it would have been given a 1.42.4-2 version number.18:17
UsLI see.18:47
