Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: [email protected]
Usertags: unblock
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Control: affects -1 + src:monado
Please unblock package Monado.
[ Reason ]
First, the current version of Monado in Debian is two years old,
entirely deprecated, and useless in terms of XR development.
As the Monado package is utterly useless in the version shipped with Bookworm,
this will lead only to a state where no one will choose to install it from
Debian sources,
which is a dreadful.
So, my proposal is to:
1. bump it so that Bookworm will provide at least a possibly usable version
2. drop the package entirely from the release, so point people directly to the
nightly Monado builds
[ Impact ]
People may get a reasonably up-to-date package when Bookworm gets released.
[ Tests ]
No.
[ Risks ]
There could be bugs not present in the old version.
[ Checklist ]
[ ] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
[ ] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[ ] attach debdiff against the package in testing
[ Other info ]
unblock monado/21.0.0~dfsg1-2.1+b1

Surprisingly there's no RC bug filed against monado to reflect this.

This is really not appropriate anymore [1]. Sorry, I'm not going to
unblock this.

You can get that automatically by filing the aforementioned RC bug.
