Bug#316360: what's up with this magyar.ldf v1.5b inclusion?



Dear LaTeX and Debian Gurus,

I've just found out that the Debian's magyar.ldf is incompatible with
hyperref and other important packages.  Then I've found this bug in
the BTS.

Nothing has happened for two long years!

>From the Debian BTS, it seems that Johannes is responsible for this,
so can I ask you Johannes what the problem is?  This version is great
and it works, why can't be included in babel?

debian-tex-maint@lists.debian.org people: the correct version is
already at usr/share/doc/texlive-doc/latex/magyar/magyar.ldf.gz if
texlive-lang-hungarian is installed.  How hard it would be to somehow
divert the original magyar.ldf when this hungarian package got
installed?

Be realistic, it seems nothing will happen with this bug at babel's
people.  They did nothing with it for 2 years...

Sorry for my disappointed attitude, but it is really bad to see
headings like this when the affected software is quite good:
% When will magyar.ldf 1.5 be part of mainstream LaTeX / Babel? I have no
% idea, ask the maintainer of Babel. magyar.ldf 1.5 has been converted to
% magyar.dtx on June 27, 2004. That version has been submitted to the
% maintainer of the Babel package. No reply from him since then.

Thank all of you for the hard work.

Bye,
Gergely
