Public bug reported:
As indicated in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mksh/+bug/1867459 (the
previous sync request during DebianImportFreeze), I’ve just released a
new upstream version of mksh, which is virtually identical to what we
already shipped in 57-7 in Debian, just rolling up the changes into a
release, plus these new changes:
mksh (58-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* New upstream release
- [tg] Improve code […] correctness
- [multiplexd] Add vi mode PgDn, similar to PgUp doing history search
- [tg] Build.sh fixup unreliable test -n / -z
- [multiplexd] Correct documentation of vi mode @c
- [tg] Update to UCD 13.0.0
- [tg] Use nanoseconds in test -nt / -ot (LP#1855325)
* Work around debhelper issue #908845 (Niels Thykier)
* Update lintian overrides
-- Thorsten Glaser <t...@mirbsd.de> Fri, 27 Mar 2020 12:59:25 +0100
With my Debian Developer hat on, the benefit is having all these changes
from 57-1 to 57-7 in the origtgz and a very minimal Debian diff. The
package is leaf and has autopkgtests and an extensive testsuite, so the
risk is minimal.
With my upstream hat on, I’d prefer to have a formal release shipped for
LTS.
