Package "xchat" version 2.6.8-0.3 is in unstable. It would be nice to
see this version released with etch. The changes with the version in
testing are:
* NMU.
* debian/rules, debian/control: Fixed spell checking. Closes: #399143.
Removed the option --enable-spell and build-depends on libsexy-dev to use
the by default enabled spell checking using libsexy2.
* debian/rules: Removed obsolete --enable-japanese-conv and --enable-zvt
switches. Closes: #353007.
* debian/patches/04_patch361525.dpatch: Added. Activates the busy cursor
while xchat is loading. Closes: #361525.
* debian/rules: Clean some more in the clean rule.
Version 2.6.8-0.1 broke spell checking. The --enable-spell configure
option behaves slightly different in the newest upstream version, and I
overlooked that. This regression is fixed in version 2.6.8-0.3.
The other changes are quite trivial I guess.
My three NMU's are with permission from the maintainer (cc). He
welcomed my help, and he answered my e-mails within 24 hours.
