Hi, I prepared an update package for librmagick-ruby to fix LP bugs 1299, 4636 and 26138. I initially asked Kamion and mdz for a breezy-updates upload, but this was denied since it's a new upstream version.
Here is some info : > - The version of librmagick-ruby (aka RMagick) in breezy doesn't even build > with the version of imagemagick in breezy (it was probably a FTBFS > that was never fixed). > > - Support for this (too new) version of imagemagick was added around > RMagick 1.8.3. Backporting the changes to support imagemagick 6.2.4 in > RMagick 1.6.0 would really be a loss of time. > > - The package currently in breezy really doesn't work: it isn't just > slightly broken, so chances that the new version will affect people > negatively are nonexistent. > > - I've a high confidence about the package I prepared : > + I co-maintain this package in Debian > + During build, it generates its own documentation, including a lot of > build-time-generated examples which quite throughoutly test the > package > + I checked some of the generated documentation for correctness > > - The package is very useful for people playing with RubyOnRails The updated package is available at http://tiber.tauware.de/~lucas/pkg/librmagick-ruby/ The discussion about this issue took place at https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/librmagick-ruby/+bug/1299 Could this go into breezy-backports ?
