Package: pine Version: 4.62-1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
It should have binary .deb package for the original pine, so that it can be redistributed in debian ftp archive. The package name may be "pine-orig", for example. Without binary package, users will don't know that it have pine source package, from debian archive, ready to be built. I try "apt-cache search -n pine", and find no package named "pine", and thought that it have no any pine package in debian archive. I don't even know that it already have source package. Until yesterday, I try to search for the problem in debian mailing list, and discover that it already have the source package. But that takes time over 1 year, from when I first try to find the pine package from debian. Think of that users spend years to discover the pine package? Many users will lost their opportunity to know that it have pine source package ready for them. That's why I consider this bug as "renders package unusable". -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.10-5-386 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=thai Versions of packages pine depends on: ii libc6 2.3.5-1ubuntu12 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libldap2 2.1.30-2ubuntu4.1 OpenLDAP libraries ii libncurses5 5.4-4 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libssl0.9.7 0.9.7d-3ubuntu0.2 SSL shared libraries ii mime-support 3.26-1 MIME files 'mime.types' & 'mailcap -- no debconf information __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
