Package: src:hyphen
Version: 2.8.8-5
Severity: wishlist

the hyphen package hasn't had a release in several years.

however, there are several useful-looking changes (including cleanup in
the build scripts) in git (upstream uses
https://github.com/hunspell/hyphen for hosting, afaict).

It might be good to import some of those changes.  at the least, it
would remove some autoconf warnings that we see otherwise.

      --dkg

So it seems, I've opened a bug upstream to ask for a new release, let's
see what happens.

Indeed some of those clean ups are useful, and there are also a couple
of pure bugfixes in it.
I mean, I could loop and take in all the patches, or just a single big
diff since the last release, but it would be a bit silly, let's see what
upstream thinks (if they'll answer).

I'm closing this bug as wontfix for now, unless you think there is a
particular change that deserves to be cherry-picked.
