Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xfonts-wqy
This is a sync request for new Debian version (the same upstream
version), so I assume it doesn't break Feature Freeze and needs no
exception requests. If that's not the case, let me know.
Source package name: xfonts-wqy
Version to sync: 0.9.9-3
Place to sync from: Debian unstable main
I did the previous 0.9.9-2ubuntu1 merge, the only change in 0.9.9-2ubuntu1
(compared with 0.9.9-2) is:
- fixing the conffile handling so that package upgrading won't delete
modified conffile (Debian bug 457423)
- included in 0.9.9-3 version of Debian package
- therefore can be dropped, so overriding Ubuntu change is OK
The other new changes in 0.9.9-3 are:
- patching the fontconfig configuration so that this font won't have high
priorities in many locales (Debian bug 456376)
- removing unused font alias file
- reverting correct, but unnecessary (in the new Debian maintainer's
opinion) documentation changes
- adding watch file
The first change is the main reason for this sync request. Without this fix,
this font will become the default UI font for many users once it's installed,
which is probably an unpleasant surprise.
The debian/changelog entry for 0.9.9-3 is included below for reference:
xfonts-wqy (0.9.9-3) unstable; urgency=low
[ Deng Xiyue <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ]
* Move old conffile handling from postinst script to preinst script.
Also check if the conffile is locally modified. If it is, back it up
and tell the user to review the local changes and add it to the new
conffile instead of just delete it. Thanks Ming Hua. (Closes: #457423)
* Add watch file.
* Modify upstream conffile by stripping the force priority part to meet
debconf question. (Closes: #456376)
* Use upstream alias file, remove debian/xfonts-wqy.alias.
[ Cai Qian <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ]
* New maintainer.
* debian/patch/conf.patch:
- deal with #456376.
* README, AUTHOR:
- keeped them as upstream. Have no idea why it has been modified
before.
