Package: perl Version: 5.10.1-16 Filing a bug so I don't forget. The ITP is #608294 .
The main thing is to add Provides: libencode-perl so that any unversioned dependencies don't pull in the separate package unnecessarily. The Conflicts+Replaces could wait for later but it doesn't hurt to add them at the same time. ----- Forwarded message from Dominic Hargreaves <[email protected]> ----- Date: Wed, 29 Dec 2010 18:41:16 +0000 From: Dominic Hargreaves <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: Encode >= 2.39 User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.18 (2008-05-17) On Wed, Dec 29, 2010 at 05:30:41PM +0100, gregor herrmann wrote: > On Wed, 29 Dec 2010 13:05:40 +0000, Dominic Hargreaves wrote: > > > The obvious way would seem to be move > > libencode-perl out of attic/ and update it to the latest upstream > > release and upload to unstable (or, conservatively, experimental). > > Presumably we'd then also need to update perl 5.12 to add a > > Replaces: for this module. > > > > Note that this would be necessary even with perl 5.12 moved to sid, > > to support backports. > > > > Does this seem like a reasonable strategy? > > Sounds good to me. Okay. I've prepared this for upload and will do so next week. CCing [email protected] in case this needs some change in the version of perl in experimental.
