Version: 20090403-1.2
Tag: patch

Dear Debian Maintainers,

Please note that there is a new upstream version from 2012. I've been building (.deb with pbuilder) and playing it on a debian-jessie system, and it works great.

From my home-package, I found those things :

1) we can add "libcairo2-dev" as build-depends in order to build whysynth with nicer knobs.

2) we can drop the debian/control build-depends' "libasound-dev" which is not available anymore in debian.

3) we can bump to debhelper (>= 9).

4) the upstream repo moved to https://github.com/smbolton/whysynth/releases which the debian/watch file can be pointed to I think.

5) Please, find an updated machine-readable debian/copyright

Hope that helps.

Olivier

 Much of the original code in WhySynth would not have been possible
 without the generous availability of the work of Tim Stilson, Julius
 Smith, Eli Brandt, John Chowning, Curtis Roads, and a slew of other
