There is NO metakit source package in Debian so there is NO dublication. What is more, metakit library is hopelessly outdated upstream (2007 is the latest release date) and there is no proof that new version would fix current akregator problems. Actually, the metakit lib that is currently embedded in the akregator (2.4.9.5), has no interesting changes in comparison with the current metakit stable release (2.4.9.7) (yes, I have actually checked). So please do not exagerate bug severities based on pure guesses. You could have saved some valuable time for everybody. Future is akonadi-based akregator and, obviously, we are not interested in maintaining a dead library just for the sake of it. Moreover, unless you can actually confirm the fix for 590147, do not add false information to the BTS. P.S. Users should never set serious severity unless they can pin point Debian policy violation. You obviously failed to do so in this case. -- Modestas Vainius <modax@debian.org>
