Package: gscan2pdf Version: 0.9.31-1 Severity: important It is possible (even likely) that libforks-perl will have to be removed from testing but it would appear that gscan2pdf could revert to the internal perl threading support (as in previous releases) as part of the fix for the RC bug against gscan2pdf (#589796).
There is a simple patch (prepared by Chris Butler) but there should be some discussion about the options and implications. It seems unlikely that libforks- perl can be reliably fixed and if converting gscan2pdf to revert to internal perl threading support means that other bugs would appear as regressions, then maybe gscan2pdf itself would have to be removed alongside libforks-perl. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
