RFS: nsis-2.46-2 [attn: pabs]



Hi,

I'd like to update the NSIS Debian package to version 2.46-2.

NSIS is an open source system to create Windows installers and
it is licensed under the zlib/libpng license.

The maintenance of the NSIS Debian package is handled via the
collab-maint subversion repository:
svn+ssh://svn.debian.org/svn/collab-maint/ext-maint/nsis/trunk
respectively
http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/collab-maint/ext-maint/nsis/trunk/?op=3Dlog

I would propose the lastest revision (rev 16086) for upload.
This revision includes the following changes:
* Updated zlib patch with changes from upstream subversion repository
* Made embedded inflate function compatible with zlib (Closes: #579407)
* Exclude unneeded win32-only utilities from building
* Build makensis and portable utilities natively for amd64

I verified with pbuilder that all required build dependencies are
listed in the debian/control file.

Lintian reports the following known warnings for the NSIS Debian
package: W: nsis: non-standard-dir-in-usr usr/i586-mingw32msvc/
W: nsis: file-in-unusual-dir usr/i586-mingw32msvc/include/nsis/api.h
W: nsis: file-in-unusual-dir
         usr/i586-mingw32msvc/include/nsis/pluginapi.h 
W: nsis: file-in-unusual-dir
         usr/i586-mingw32msvc/lib/nsis/libpluginapi.a 
N: 1 tag overridden (1 warning)

I built the test installers via "fakeroot debian/rules
override_dh_auto_test" and zipped the resulting executables placed in
the ".test" directory. Thereafter I unzipped the test installers and
run them on a Windows machine. The tests didn't show neither any
regression nor misbehavior.

Please let me know if I missed anything preventing the upload of this
package.

Thanks in advance,
Thomas
