Package: gnugk Version: 2:2.2.6-1 Severity: serious Tags: patch Hi,
Since firebird1.5 (providing firebird2-dev) is going to be removed[1] because it is not supported by upstream any more and has security issues, gnugk will suddenly FTBFS and become uninstallable due to missing firebird2-dev and libfbclient1 packages. [1] http://bugs.debian.org/438862 The attached patch changes the Build-Depends on firebird to firebird2.0-dev, which takes care of the Depends also. I've build the package on amd64 without errors (in a fresh sid pbuilder chroot). Note that I've taken the oportunity to also extend the list of architectures firebird is supported by powerpc, sparc and kfreebsd-*. Severity is serious, since gnugk should not be released (build-)depending on an unsupported version ofr firebird. Thanks for taking care. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=bg_BG.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=bg_BG.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash
