request NMU on jadetex (impacts tiff transition)
RC bug 253098 reported against jadetex is 64 days old. I believe that
this bug is making some packages (packages that build-depend upon
docbook-utils) FTBFS. This would include at least two packages
involved in the tiff transition. I would like to request an immediate
NMU because of the impact of this bug on the tiff transition.
I believe that this may be the issue with gnobog. Also, the pinball
package is definitely being blocked by this as you can see from a
recent buildd log:
http://buildd.debian.org/fetch.php?&pkg=pinball&ver=0.3.1-3&arch=i386&stamp=1091904075&file=log&as=raw
I have built jadetex with this patch and have tested it, both in a
pbuilder environment. Details can be found in bug 253098.
I am attaching the patch to this message. This package can be applied
to the source package:
apt-get source jadetex
cd jadetex-3.13
patch -s -p0 < jadetex.patch
I have also posted the patch and my intention to request an NMU to
this bug report.
