Right, I know what it's for, but I didn't know if this is something that the buildds are doing wrong (so a problem to be fixed there rather than in packages, given that local sbuild behaves differently); seems curious to me. But it does seem right that packages should ignore the desired state and only care about the current, indeed. affects ubuntu/raring/git-annex assignee laney status inprgress -- Iain Lane [ i...@orangesquash.org.uk ] Debian Developer [ la...@debian.org ] Ubuntu Developer [ la...@ubuntu.com ] -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1084693 Title: Please build git-annex with webapp enabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/git-annex/+bug/1084693/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
