I previously hoped that a working testsuite will give me better confidence in backporting. Many components for it are still missing, but one was recently added (python interface of pjproject). > > Shall it be excluded from LTS support? Do you think you can support > it through backports? Backports will simplify the problem, indeed, as they are supported by upstream. The thing to consider, then, is how to reduce the chance of breaking user's configurations. > > (I see you have troubles supporting it in unstable/testing already...) Sorry about that. Trying to pick it back up. I'll try to give a better reply in a month. Ditto for the viability of using a test-suite. -- Tzafrir Cohen | tzaf...@jabber.org | VIM is http://tzafrir.org.il | | a Mutt's tzaf...@cohens.org.il | | best tzaf...@debian.org | | friend
