Heya,
Quoted from IRC:
<HE> Snow-Man: Pah?
<Snow-Man> Indeed.
<HE> Snow-Man: Why? Because I suggested that you might need to ask for
help for libnss-ldap?
<Snow-Man> More because you were concerned about it being in a
currently-releasable version.
<Snow-Man> errr, s/version/state/
<HE> Well, I was asked into that issue. Looking at the release schedule,
you shouldn't expect to be able to make large changes after
september. if you decide to upload 1 year of upstream development,
chances are high that new rc bugs pop up...
<Snow-Man> eh, perhaps for a package with poor upstream management.
<Snow-Man> libnss-ldap is actaully pretty stable and the releases don't
generally change much.
<Snow-Man> It does need to be updated, I'd been planning on doing that
for a while now.
<Snow-Man> September is certainly quite a long way off too though. :P
<HE> Well, I'm not the maintainer and don't know how upstream is, so
I've asked the proper person - you, as Debian maintainer. The problem
simply was that the package hasn't been updated in a long time and there
were 2 NMUs, so I wasn't sure how interested you are in the package.
<HE> It's simply hard to tell what people intend if there are no public logs :)
<Snow-Man> I've mentioned my intent to update it a couple times to a
couple different people who have asked.
<HE> OK, so now you have done that to me. The problem is the next person
who looks into RC-Buggy packages won't know, so it'd be nice if you
could reply to the RC bug reports, with at least a rough timeline for
further development.
<Snow-Man> eh.
<Snow-Man> I'll try to get it updated soon.
<HE> OK. Let's settle for an easy thing: Can I mail a log of the last
few minutes to the reports?
<Snow-Man> I did the other packages a while back but ended up not
getting to libnss-ldap. I'll do that one first in this round
since it wasn't updated last round though that may mean the
other packages don't get updated till a bit later.
* Snow-Man shrugs.
<Snow-Man> Sure.
<HE> OK, thanks :)Marc -- BOFH #327: The POP server is out of Coke
