Please unblock package kdepim could you consider unblocking kdepim 4.4.7 (4.4.7-1 is experimental) on the same merrits as explained in #596940. 4.4.7 is another bugfix-only release from the kdepim 4.4 stable tree. Unfortunately, the diff is quite noisy because upstream took a hammer approach at fixing probable encoding issues and disabled implicit C++ null-terminated string to Q*String object conversation: --- kdepim-4.4.6/messagecore/CMakeLists.txt 2010-09-10 02:22:43.000000000 +0300 +++ kdepim-4.4.7/messagecore/CMakeLists.txt 2010-10-22 02:25:03.000000000 +0300 @@ -1,6 +1,9 @@ set( CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} ${KDE4_ENABLE_EXCEPTIONS}" ) add_definitions(-DKDE_DEFAULT_DEBUG_AREA=5300) +add_definitions( -DQT_NO_CAST_FROM_ASCII ) +add_definitions( -DQT_NO_CAST_TO_ASCII ) + add_subdirectory(tests) This obviously broke building so as a result, you see a bunch of changes like this all over the place: - mConfig = new KConfig( "kaddressbookrc" ); + mConfig = new KConfig( QLatin1String( "kaddressbookrc" ) ); which are harmless. The interesting part is documented in the changelog. As you see, there are a bunch of crash fixes there: +=== Version 2.4.9 --- 19 October 2010 === +- Fix crash if alarm triggers while its deletion confirmation prompt is visible. +- Fix crash when Try button is clicked while creating new display alarm. +- Fix crash on KAlarm exit. +- Fix possible crash when enabling individual alarms. +- Prevent long file name from expanding the width of file display alarm window. +- Allow pre- & post-alarm actions for alarms whose text is generated by a command. +- Combine 4 New Alarm icons in toolbar, to fix icon texts not fitting into width. + which would be useful to have in Squeeze. BTW, there is also kdepim-runtime[2] 4.4.7 in unstable which has no upstream code changes, just a version bump. Unblock it if you choose to unblock kdepim 4.4.7, those two tarballs were released together. unblock kdepim/4:4.4.7-1 [1] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=596940 [2] http://packages.qa.debian.org/k/kdepim-runtime.html -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (100, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.36-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=lt_LT.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=lt_LT.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-release-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
