Upgrades should not be affected, but you are of course still right for
new installations.

I understand that you would like to have trang in Lenny, but I don’t
know whether it is a good idea to actively get an orphaned package into
a stable release.  I’m not willing to pick up this package, I merely
provided a patch for it last September.

I also see that there is movement on #454810, so I don’t really consider
it my task to follow this further.

Cheers,

But trang is in Etch (and works well there). So, what about Etch
users who need trang? When they upgrade to Lenny, they will have
a bad surprise.

Yes, I tried to push the thread to let it get more attention.

Unchanged.  Anyway, this isn’t urgent at the moment, as trang is not in
Lenny; since no Java or QA people reacted at the time I posted the fix,
I decided to postpone it.

"Pushing."

So, what's the status of this package?

Hi everyone,

Could any of you, preferably with more Java packaging experience than
me, have a look at my proposed trang revision 20030619-7?  Uploading it
would close #478187 (G); the error described there is caused by gcj
hiding an internal package of trang behind a built-in one.  I’ve posted
an RFS two weeks ago [1], but only one non-DD responded, which is why
I’m adding -qa.  The source package can be downloaded from:

http://alioth.debian.org/~michi-guest/packages/trang_20030619-7.dsc

It builds fine in pbuilder, the binary package as well as the source is 
 
lintian clean, and debdiff against the binary package from 6.1 shows no 
 
unexpected changes. 
 

I would greatly appreciate if someone could comment on what I’ve done
and eventually upload it.
