"yade compiled fine, but crashed just after the start. It means that each package should not only be recompiled but also started to be sure we don`t break many installations."
Are you interested in doing that? If not, it might be best to just wait until Debian is ready to make that transition. ** Changed in: freeglut (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to freeglut in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1683285 Title: New version freeglut 3.0.0 Status in freeglut package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in freeglut package in Debian: Unknown Bug description: Hello! New version of freeglut has been released two years ago (!). I prepared a patch to update the package. Could you review it and upload the new version? I'm attaching patch to debian folder. You have to download and unpack the new upstream version via uscan or from official web-site. I did it to reduce file size. I already sent my patch to Debian, but there is no reaction on it. Debian Maintainer told that there were some problems with dependencies[1], but unfortunately he didn't indicate what dependencies were. But in spite of that, I hope it's possible to upload the new package to Ubuntu 17.10.
