reopen 541391 tags 541391 + pending thanks Hi Kees,
I think I understand the problem a bit better now. The packaging prepared for experimental, including debian/copyright, was based on upstream commit a6f43e6, but because of a miscommunication the version uploaded had upstream version 4.999.8beta. So the debian/copyright does not reflect reality for the package uploaded, just as you observed (XZ Utils was only released into the public domain in the intervening time). The version currently intended for unstable [1] fixes this automatically, so to speak, by using a more recent upstream. If you have time, would you be willing to look it over and possibly direct me to someone who could sponsor an upload? I ask because I am not a DD and the new version fixes some serious bugs. Thanks, and sorry about that, Jonathan [1] Development repository: http://git.debian.org/?p=collab-maint/xz.git Testing APT repository: http://collab-maint.alioth.debian.org/xz-utils/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
