No, that's mistakable from the bug log. In order for the fix to have 
effect on a package (which is going to be built without an install 
prefix and) which build-depends on libflac, the package needs to get 
reconfigured to include libflac's fixed libFLAC.m4.

#585518 appears to be a wishlist change to support an unofficial port,
which wouldn't qualify for an exception on its own.

I'm ambivalent about #579025.  The bug log indicates that it doesn't
actually affect any packages in the archive, as it only occurs when the
install prefix is not overriden; it could break things for people
compiling local flac-using applications.  By your own determination
though, it's only a "normal" bug.

The log for #579025 also suggests that fixing it would require
rebuilding reverse dependencies; is that the case?

Adam

flac_1.2.1-3

2010-08-09 Thread Fabian Greffrath

Dear Release Team,

the pkg-multimedia team has just uploaded a revised flac_1.2.1-3 
package to unstable. This packages contains fixes for two bugs 
(#579025 and #585518) which unfortunately required an autoreconf of 
the build system. The autoreconf result is applied by means of a 
patch, which makes the interdiff quite huge and is the reasons why I 
haven't attached it to this mail.


How would you like me to proceed convincing you to let this package 
pass through to testing? In order to check the changes step by step, 
you may want to check out the packaging GIT repository:

Best regards,
Fabian
