The best I could come up with was to use a command to grab last year's last release (which should always be a reliable value, right?). Something like this in the debian rules script: sed -i 's/@@LASTRELEASE@@/'$(( $(date +%y) - 1 ))'.10/' <file>
Where file is either ubuntu-server-tips or the language-specific version of that file. I'm no Makefile magician, so my efforts to actually implement this were brief. If I need to put a little more effort into it, I'd be happy to do so. As a consolation gift, I've attached a patch to fix the current problem, though it won't really work for long. ** Patch added: "Update URLs to Ubuntu help site" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fortunes-ubuntu-server/+bug/915651/+attachment/2671233/+files/fortunes-ubuntu-server-0.3-updateURL.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/915651 Title: Many fortunes point to dead URLs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fortunes-ubuntu-server/+bug/915651/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
