Bug#424456: kimwitu: diff for NMU version 4.6.1-7.1

2008-04-15 Thread Michael Meskes 
  I think it's stupid to change a completely built package to fix an
   obscure build bug. Really, what's the point. Conformance to the policy

I definitely disagree. Being able to build a package twice in a row is a
release goal and rightfully so. Calling this obscure creates a bad taste
in my mouth actually.

   for conformance's sake. The users will have to install an updated
   package with not a single bit changed.

Right, but at least they will be able to install it. The alternative
would have been to remove the package from testing. But then you might
not care or want to see it in testing given that the -doc package is not
available either. If so feel free to request its removal. I was under
the impression the package should be in lenny.

Hi Mike,

 I think it's stupid to change a completely built package to fix an
  obscure build bug. Really, what's the point. Conformance to the policy
  for conformance's sake. The users will have to install an updated
  package with not a single bit changed.

The real NMU was done by Michael (Meskes, who reads in CC). Feel free
to integrate the really simple changes on kimwitu in a MU (there
wasn't any in 2 years) taking the package a little bit up-to-date and
letting lenny be a better release.

Thanks in advance,
Sandro
