--- Begin Message ---Package: pylibtiff Severity: minor Hi Richard, sorry for the late answer. Our excuse for this is that Mathieu who previously maintained this package left the team a bit after your mail. I also must say that you are quite lucky that I stumbled upon this in my mailbox. The correct way to address issues like this is not a mail to the maintainer but rather send a bug report using reportbug pylibtiff Severity: wishlist / minor Subject: New version available This would ensure that there is a publicly visible record about this issue and since I regard this important I hereby do so since I regard this important for the needed discussion (see below).

I injected some packaging for SVN version 107 into packaging SVN. However, when doing the packaging I realised that the setup.py clean target does the following change which I injected as quilt patch to do not disturb the packaging process: https://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/debian-med/trunk/packages/pylibtiff/trunk/debian/patches/cope_with_upstream_changes_after_clean_target.patch?view=markup As you can see it says: short_version='0.4.1' version='0.4.1' release=False This sounds a bit suspicious to be a target for a Debian release. Since you are interested in the package I wonder whether you would volunteer to contact upstream what SVN revision they might consider appropriate to be shipped as Debian package. Moreover it would be way more comfortable if upstream would consider releasing versioned tarballs as it is advised in the Debian UpstreamGuide: https://wiki.debian.org/UpstreamGuide#Releases_and_Versions This would easily enable us to detect new versions and we would not have this bad situation to lag behind severely.
