Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: important Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for my RC bug fix of "mlterm". It fixes a piuparts upgrade test failure (bugs #688603, #688604, #688605, #688606, #694153). The previous fix (in -1.2) creates new problems (hence bug #694153). It seems something (dpkg?) gets confused and follows the symlink when removing the files from the old package on upgrade. This removes files from the -common package (see the piuparts log attached to bug #694153). My fix just copies the relevant part from the postinst of mlterm and mlterm-tiny for the other packages. With this change (and a revert of the changes in -1.2), the piuparts upgrade test works fine. Below is a debdiff against version -1.1, which is currently in wheezy. * Package name : mlterm Version : 3.1.2-1.3 * License : BSD Section : x11 It builds those binary packages: mlterm - MultiLingual TERMinal mlterm-common - MultiLingual TERMinal, common files mlterm-im-ibus - MultiLingual TERMinal, IBus input method plugin mlterm-im-m17nlib - MultiLingual TERMinal, m17nlib input method plugin mlterm-im-scim - MultiLingual TERMinal, scim input method plugin mlterm-im-uim - MultiLingual TERMinal, uim input method plugin mlterm-tiny - MultiLingual TERMinal, tiny version mlterm-tools - MultiLingual TERMinal, additional tools To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL: http://mentors.debian.net/package/mlterm Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command: dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/m/mlterm/mlterm_3.1.2-1.3.dsc Changes since the last upload: diff -Nru mlterm-3.1.2/debian/changelog mlterm-3.1.2/debian/changelog --- mlterm-3.1.2/debian/changelog 2012-09-08 16:18:20.000000000 +0200 +++ mlterm-3.1.2/debian/changelog 2012-12-12 00:34:48.000000000 +0100 @@ -1,3 +1,19 @@ +mlterm (3.1.2-1.3) unstable; urgency=low + + * Non-maintainer upload. + * Don't delete docs in preinst.
