Package: release.debian.org Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: addresses-for-gnus...@packages.debian.org Control: affects -1 + src:addresses-for-gnustep + src:gnustep-addresses User: release.debian....@packages.debian.org Usertags: transition
Our intention was to do this transition together with the rest of the GNUstep libraries (RT #1099081) but the package has been in NEW until today. This is a bugfix release following a full audit of the code inspired by #1087735. To cite the upstream announcement [1]: ,---- | AddressManager and Addresses Frameworks got a major maintenance | release, 0.5.0. Highly recommended: code modernisation, highly | improved encoding detection and RFC compliance for UTF-8, display | fixes, memory and initialization handling, crash fixers.... `---- Both rdeps agenda.app and gnumail build fine against the new version. There is no auto tracker because the source package was renamed from addresses-for-gnustep to gnustep-addresses to match the naming convention that was proposed to the FTP masters [2] and the rest of the GNUstep libraries/frameworks in the archive.
