Please, please, please _DON'T_ remove makedumpfile from the syncpackage blacklist.
In order to have a working version of makedumpfile in Debian Jessie, the version in Sid has been deliberately brought back to 1.5.3-2 so it can be unblocked by the release team and included in Jessie from Sid. Once this gets done and Jessie is released, an updated version of 1.5.7 with systemd enablement will be uploaded to Sid and we can then remove it from the blacklist. Otherwise, a very old version will make it to Vivid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to makedumpfile in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1398507 Title: Remove makedumpfile from syncpackage blacklist Status in makedumpfile package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Please sync makedumpfile 1.5.7-3 (main) from Debian unstable (main) Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped: * Merge from Debian unstable.
