Please send me the link to your .dsc file. There's nothing secret actually, and the link should probably have been : http://mentors.debian.net/cgi-bin/sponsor-pkglist?action=details;package=nusoap Anyway, the interesting stuff is there : http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/n/nusoap/ Sorry. > > > May I ask you to try and test if it breaks your packages eventually > > (and/or ask your upstreams in case they would have not noticed) ?

The same happens for Mantis, btw, where upstream will include a copy of 0.9.5 staring with 1.2.1 AFAIK > > I just wonder if the new version has changed from a standalone single > "nusoap.php" file or, as much as I can see, if a project should now use > also the class.*.php files that are next to it, or if they are just the > examples (without seaching much, I'd guess it didn't change, and a > single nusoap.php is enough, and that others are just examples, right?). > AFAIK, nusoap.php is the only one included normally, and it is a concatenation of all the other individual class .php files shipped by upstream. No change here... unless applications did include the individual files, in which case, the Debian packaging should require some changes (as only the nusoap.php is in /usr/share/php now). > > I'm waiting for 0.7.3-3 to transition to testing before uploading to > > unstable anyway, but any help testing it would be much welcome. > > I'm thinking about uploading to experimental maybe. > > Having the package in experimental doesn't mater much to me, as long as > we all know where to get the package to test with before it goes in SID > or Testing. > > What's important give us something to test with (eg: a working URL) and > to add entries to #577441 saying that: > - there's a new version from upstream > - the new version of your package is under testing period > - where to get the updated package until testing period is done > If you know how to dget, and dpkg-buildpackage, you should be able to test now ;) > Currently, your entry just says that the upstream dropped maintenance, > which is not right anymore, since you are packaging 0.9.5.
