Two months have passed. Any news? Oleksandr, I have packaged the 2.5 release and polished up the packaging. Code is available via git clone git://git.debian.org/users/tweber/lcms2.git The git repository is in git-buildpackage layout, so you are probably best off cloning via gbp: gbp clone git://git.debian.org/users/tweber/lcms2.git Unless you object, I intend to upload this package to experimental in a few days. I would also move my git repository to collab-maint. I do NOT intend to take over maintenance of the packaging, but there are too many dependencies which would benefit from a new release to wait several months more with this.

Quoting Oleksandr Moskalenko (2013-08-01 19:03:51) I'll definitely add a symbols file before the next upload of 2.5. Sounds good. I already made a functional lcms2-2.5 package that has been used to build other packages, but I still have to apply the patches for security advisories and generally polish the package up to the debian/main standards. Thanks for sharing your progress on this. Much appreciated. I can recommend you to consider releasing your current work to experimental, as that allows making progress on the ghostscript package in _parallel_ to your refinement work. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private signature.asc Description: signature
