Hi, I realize you have strong feelings about this, but please remember that Ubuntu is a Debian derivative. That means that packaging in Debian is upstream. Ideally, the packages would be as close as possible to reduce duplicate work.
Why are you continuing to maintain two different duplicate packages? Please just use the Debian name conventions and the old source package can be removed from the Ubuntu repositories. What do you mean that Debian is refusing to apply patches from upstream? What are these patches? Are there bugs about them in Debian's bug tracker, and why doesn't upstream just release a new tarball? Unless you really mean that upstream prefers a certain packaging layout which is not something that upstream needs to worry about. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/657564 Title: Duplicated package with cairo-dock-plugins (coming from Debian) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cairo-dock-plug-ins/+bug/657564/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
