Bug#602302: future unblock: kdepim/4:4.4.7-1
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: wishlist
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: freeze-exception
Please unblock package kdepim
could you consider unblocking kdepim 4.4.7 (4.4.7-1 is experimental) on the
same merrits as explained in #596940. 4.4.7 is another bugfix-only release from
the kdepim 4.4 stable tree. Unfortunately, the diff is quite noisy because
upstream took a hammer approach at fixing probable encoding issues and disabled
implicit C++ null-terminated string to Q*String object conversation:

This obviously broke building so as a result, you see a bunch of changes like
this all over the place:
- mConfig = new KConfig( "kaddressbookrc" );
+ mConfig = new KConfig( QLatin1String( "kaddressbookrc" ) );
which are harmless. The interesting part is documented in the changelog. As you
see, there are a bunch of crash fixes there:
+=== Version 2.4.9 --- 19 October 2010 ===
+- Fix crash if alarm triggers while its deletion confirmation prompt is visible.
+- Fix crash when Try button is clicked while creating new display alarm.
+- Fix crash on KAlarm exit.
+- Fix possible crash when enabling individual alarms.
+- Prevent long file name from expanding the width of file display alarm window.
+- Allow pre- & post-alarm actions for alarms whose text is generated by a command.
+- Combine 4 New Alarm icons in toolbar, to fix icon texts not fitting into width.
+
which would be useful to have in Squeeze.
BTW, there is also kdepim-runtime[2] 4.4.7 in unstable which has no upstream
code changes, just a version bump. Unblock it if you choose to unblock kdepim
4.4.7, those two tarballs were released together.
