Having adopted this package just a few days ago, I'm not sure I understand
everything here.
This bug doesn't appear to be a regression from a security upload of
vimperator (unless there is a security update I can't see from the
changelog).
So I'm guessing it must be the security update to Iceweasel that broke
vimperator support. Is that correct?
In which case, I guess the simplest fix is to upgrade this extension to
2.3.1 (i.e. new minor upstream version) in squeeze.
Looking at the changelog for the last upload to sid, I see only necessary
changes and trivial ones:
needed:
* New upstream release
* Use the right upstream license in debian/copyright
(2.3.1 has a new license)
minor:
* Remove versioned dependency on iceweasel
* Adopting this package with Pierre's permission.
* Move git repo to collab-maint on git.debian.org
* Update homepage and download URL
* Install the upstream changelog
* Add ${misc:depends} dependency (lintian warning)
* Remove period in short description (lintian warning)
* Use 3.0 (quilt) source format
* Bump Standards-Version and debhelper compat
So maybe I should put all of that in my proposal a squeeze stable update?
Cheers,
Francois
