Bug#984788: (pre-approval) unblock: octave/6.2.0-1
* Sébastien Villemot [2021-03-08 13:19]: Package: release.debian.org Severity: normal User: release.debian@packages.debian.org Usertags: unblock Dear Release Team, This is a pre-approval request for unblocking package octave, version 6.2.0-1 Currently, bullseye contains a hand-crafted mercurial snapshot of octave. Uploading a snapshot was made necessary because the previous official release (6.1.0) had serious bugs, which were fixed in the mercurial repository. Since then, a new official upstream bugfix release has been made (6.2.0). For various reasons, it would be better to ship an official release in bullseye, hence this request. The debdiff is attached. I have filtered out all unrelevant stuff (copyright header changes, regenerated files). unblock octave/6.2.0-1 A further information regarding this request: the upload of version 6.2.0-1 of the package will fix Bug#983307 (liboctave-dev: Octave version in Bullseye breaks SWIG integration). Best regards, Rafael Laboissière
