Agreed, but the rebase happened a lot earlier in our git repo. Sure, one
could have created a new branch for just the new freeze-exception
package, but given that there is only a single code change (r4044), it'd
be too confusing to have a branched history afterwards:
http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-multimedia/jackd2.git;a=shortlog
All changes since 1.9.5dfsg-19 are worth to be included, and almost
nothing (except r4044) has been changed upstream.
If I diff between 1.9.5dfsg-19 and 1.9.6dfsg-1, I get the following
result:
$ mkdir /tmp/jackd2 ; cd /tmp/jackd2
$ apt-get source jackd2/testing jackd2/unstable
$ diff -q -u -r jackd2-1.9.5~dfsg/ jackd2-1.9.6~dfsg/ | egrep -v

Obviously, the packages only differ in the debian/, the ChangeLog,
jackdbus.c (r4044) and some other READMEs. There are also differences in
the stripped out versions of some OSX- and Win32 libs, but that's not
our business.
Is there anything you particularly don't like about the new package that
would prevent it from entering testing?
