Hi,
I am requesting permission to fix a functional regression in cproto with
an upload to proposed-updates-new for jessie. This may or may not meet
the criteria of a "truly critical functionality problem", but I thought
it was worth asking anyway.
In April of 2013 (version 4.7j-7), I converted cproto to debhelper 7.
In the process, I accidentally lost the only option I was passing to
configure (--enable-llib). As a result, I disabled the -X command-line
option. This means there is a functional regression between wheezy
(version 4.7j-5) and jessie (version 4.7l-3). The manpage is also
wrong. See bug #784719.
A few minutes ago, I uploaded version 4.7l-4 to unstable. The diff vs.
4.7l-3 (in jessie) is attached as debian.diff. The only change is to
pass the missing --enable-llib configure option.
The changes between upstream versions 4.7j and 4.7l are minor and do not
involve the functionality controlled by --enable-llib. So, the -X
behavior in 4.7l-4 (proposed for jessie) should be the same as we saw in
4.7j-5 (which was in wheezy). As a result, I believe this to be a
low-risk change. A diff of the relevant files in the two upstream
releases is attached as cproto-4.7j-4.7l.diff.
Thank you for the help,
KEN
