Jan Hauke Rahm did comment on #585658, if that's the bug you are experiencing. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=585658#15 > But since > uploaded one or two versions). Jan did most of the work for the first of those two versions which closed multiple bugs. As Jan said, a new upload for a single bug which only had a partial fix did not seem to be as important as the other changes. I did the second upload with the sole requirement of fixing RC bugs with minimal changes as this was at the start of the freeze. multi-tarball support is not release-critical, so there was no room for any work on that issue. It is not possible for every upload to fix every outstanding bug. > So, what do you do with multi-tarball packages? I keep a patched > svn-buildpackage, for now. Is your patch an improvement on the partial fix or are there still issues? Have you tested your patch with single-tarball packages and other setups or only with your own? I can look at a new upload to experimental but changes in unstable will need to wait until after Wheezy is released. Please feed back to the existing bug report. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
