The MirBSD Korn Shell must-have
bugfix releases R42b (for the current formal release series) and
R41c (for the last bugfix-only stable series) have been issued.
Debian testing/unstable users get the fixes through their package
management
... [More]
, versioned 40.9.20120630-7 targetting wheezy (hopefully).
Debian experimental users will receive a 42b-1 upload, closer to
what other distro packages provide, soonish, targetting jessie.
Since we lack anything better (that, unless Freshmeat, is actually
usable), by request of our packagers, new mksh(1) releases will be
announced on our miros-mksh@ mailing
list starting now.

mksh made quite some waves (machine translation of the third article) recently.
Let’s state it’s not just Amigas – ara5 is a buildd running the Atari kernel,
an emulated though. On the other hand, the bare-metal Ataris used to be the
fastest
... [More]
buildds, so I expect we get them back online soonish. I’m currently
fighting with some buildd software bugfixes, but once they’re in, we will
make more of them. Oh, and porterboxen! Does anyone want to host a VM with a
porterbox? Requirements: wheezy host system (can be emulated), 1 GiB RAM, one
CPU core with about 6500 BogoMIPS or more (so the emulated system has decent
speed; an AMD Phenom II X4 3.2 GHz does just fine). Oh, and mksh is ported to more and more platforms, like
386BSD 0.0 with GCC 1.39, and QNX 4 with Watcom… and more bugfixes are also
being worked on. And let’s not forget features!
jupp got refreshed: it’s got a bracketed
paste mode, which is even auto-enabled on xterm-xfree86 (though the
xterm(1) in MirBSD’s a tad too old to know it; will update that later, just
imported sendmail(8) 8.14.6 and lynx(1) 2.8.8dev.15 into base, more to come)
and will be enhanced later (should disable auto-indent, wordwrap, status line
updates, and possibly more), lots of new functions and bindings, now uses
mkstemp(3) to create backup files race-free, and more (read the NEWS file).
In MirBSD, Benny and I just added a number of errnos, mostly for
SUSv4 compliance and being able to compile more software from pkgsrc® without
needing to patch. This is being tested right now (although I should probably
go out and watch fireworks in less than a half-hour), together with the new
imports and the bunch of small fixes we accumulate (even though most
development in MirBSD is currently in mksh(1) and similar doesn’t mean that
all is, or worse, we were dead, which we aren’t). I’ll publish a
new snapshot some time in January. The Grml 2012.12 also contains a pretty
up-to-date MirBSD, with a boot(8/i386)loader that now ignores GUID partition
table entries when deciding what to use for the ‘a’ slice.
If you haven’t already done so, read Benjamin
Mako Hill’s writings!
