Hello pkg-voip maintainers, I'm a bit astonished on how the bugs 375141 and 397147 have been handled. While recompiling the testing version of asterisk I discovered that I lost ogg support because of the lack of build-depends so I start looking on the bugs and find out #375141 which reports the problem.
This bug has been closed with this sentence: - format_ogg_vorbis.so was present in i386, no longer in packages (Closes: #375141) <rant> Sorry this is NOT a changelog entry, we don't know why it's fixed and how you fixed it or if you simply decided that Ogg support was not worth having. In the mean time the real bug is still here: i386 is the only arch with OGG support because it's compiled by the maintainer on a system with libvorbis-dev installed but the other archs don't have it and any custom recompilation (like mine) may result in a binary without ogg support. The bug is reported again with #397147 and this time the submitter was skilled enough to point out to the real problem and the real fix got integrated but the changelog entry is still as bad: [ Mark Purcell ] * asterisk-classic, asterisk-bristuff: /usr/lib/asterisk/modules/format_ogg_vorbis.so gone missing when rebuilt (Closes: #397147 You describe the problem but a changelog is here to describe the change and in particular the fix made to correct the problem. This is very important if you want to have good feedback from users/testers/bug reporters. I need to know what changed by looking at the changelog so that I can check if the fix is the one that I expected. </rant> Please take some more care in the future, and many thanks for your work on asterisk!
