Hrm, ok. As long as it’s indeed kept in sync by someone… I’d have
preferred the pseudo-package way to have a zero delta, but that’s your
decision.
Thanks.

OK, it’s happened, mksh has been synched, pdksh is now obsolete.
Availability: mksh has until now built on all Ubuntu platforms and
should continue to do so; if not, an active maintainer (mirabilos) will
review build logs and take actions.
Rationale: The package replaces another package we
Removing the pdksh source package from quantal; this is not a bug in
that package, so marking invalid.
As for mksh being promoted to Ubuntu main, I can't see any reason why
pdksh was needed in the first place. The two build-dependencies on the
package look quite frivolous to me. I think it
oh, but of course graphviz and shunit2 aren't referencing it as pdksh,
they're referencing it as ksh. So these are not frivolous dependencies
after all, and it looks like mksh should be MIRed into main.

OK. With dietlibc, with dietlibc defused by depending on some empty
pseudo-package that only exists in Ubuntu, or with a diff against the
Debian package (not recommended)?
If pseudo-package, I’ll probably do another mksh upload before the
freeze for some minor string and documentation fixes and

A delta against the Debian package to drop the dietlibc
Indeed, I'm going to do an upload that drops the dietlibc-dev build-dep,
and then look at approving this MIR, which should be a no-brainer for
the pdksh-mksh switch, but due diligence and all that.
Or, rather, I'll review and promote it, then upload the new one, so it's
actually built in main. :P
Right, so, it passes my review, given the above security history, and
the packaging itself, while esoteric, does the job, and modulo build-
depends, we'd intend to keep it in sync with Debian anyway.
I'm promoting it now, and will upload my diet-free version in ~30m.
** Changed in: mksh (Ubuntu)
