from the update notes for the latest subversion package in Debian,
which is now installed on hemlock:
If you are using BDB repositories, you will get "DB_VERSION_MISMATCH"
errors when you try to use them with recent Subversion, due to the move
to db4.6. To fix this, just run 'svnadmin recover /path/to/repo' for
each affected repository. We apologise for the inconvenience.

maintenance at Wikimedia has resulted in the MySQL binlogs for s3
being deleted before the toolserver was able to replicate them. the
only way to fix this is to dump and reimport the entire cluster;
until that is done, s3 will not replicate.
this will take at least a few days to fix.

hello,
as you may have noticed, there is a shortage of spare time for the
current toolserver admins, which means it takes a long time for
requests to get done. i would like to add an additional admin (or
several) to help the situation.
if you're interested, please drop me a mail. ideally, candidates
will:
+ have been a member of a Wikimedia project for a long time, with
some level of additional access (e.g. checkuser, OTRS, ...)
+ have an advanced knowledge of Unix (at least several years
experience)
+ have experience with Linux or Solaris system administration in a
production environment (another Unix would be okay if you're
willing to learn something new)
+ have experience with MySQL database administration
+ be available on the toolserver IRC channel to help users (this
isn't a requirement, but it would be helpful)
+ experience with these products/technologies would be an advantage:
Apache; JIRA; PostgreSQL; Sun Web Server; Sun Directory Server / LDAP;
GlassFish; Kerberos; StorageTek SAM-QFS; Veritas.
the job of a toolserver admin is to:
+ process user requests in the TS and SUPPORT projects in JIRA
+ create new user accounts
+ make sure the toolserver systems are working acceptably (for
example, resolving performance problems with the system or broken
tools)
+ participate in discussions about the future of the toolserver (for
example, what hardware to buy, what additional services to offer,
etc.)
please, no CVs (but a short description of your background/experience
is fine). anyone who is accepted will be required to provide the
Wikimedia office with proof of their real-life identity; please don't
apply if you're not comfortable with that.
as this is a volunteer position, the amount of time you put into it
is entirely up to you; but at a minimum, you should be willing to
spend at least a couple of hours each week on the toolserver.
