Package: xfce4-weather-plugin
Version: 0.7.4-3+b1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer,
The version of the plug-in shipped by Debian no longer works. According to
the project's web site:
Attention: Please update to 0.8.3. Versions older than 0.8.0 no longer
work (bug #8105), and all earlier 0.8.x versions have problems with the
search dialog (bug #9636) and are no longer supported.
They reference two bugs:
https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8105
https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9636
Between these two, the package is not unusable as shipped. I'm not sure how
Debian wants to approach this - backporting fixes or updating the package
in-place - but I hope the answer isn't "leave it broken".
The Jessie source package (0.8.3-1) builds on Wheezy with no modification
beyond installing a couple extra build dependencies; these weren't installed
by "apt-get source xfce4-weather-plugin".
libxfce4ui-1-dev libsoup2.4-dev xfce4-dev-tools libtool
However, this isn't a process we want to inflict on end-users.
Thanks!
