Bug#776890: jessie-pu: package tbb/4.2~20140122-1.1
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
Tags: jessie

Hello,
I would like to update the version of libtbb2 in Jessie to match a recent
upload in Sid:
tbb/4.2~20140122-5
The reasoning being that:
* The -1.1 version incorrectly attempts to build for all architectures rather
than the ones that can actually build. This was fixed in -5
* There is a bug whereby the i386 architecture package does not build
correctly. This was fixed in -2.
* There is another bug preventing ppc32 from working correctly (fixed in -4)
I have also fixed the unit test logic (fixed in -3), and cleaned up the build
logic s.t. the unit tests aren't executed twice (fixed in -4).
I didn't notice that build failures were blocking my versions of tbb from
getting into Jessie.
Many apologies for missing the freeze for Jessie, and landing you with this
bugreport. It was complete incompetence on my part. (I'm still learning the
ropes of Debian packaging.)
Please let me know if you need any information, or would like me to make
another upload?
Thank you,
--
