Bug#685346: pu: package checkgmail/1.13+svn43-2+squeeze0.1
Package: release.debian.org
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: pu
Tags: squeeze
Hi,
Since late last year, checkgmail has not been working because gmail
changed its authentication protocol (bug#650454). The symptom is that
checkgmail just repeatedly asks for login and password information.
Luckily a fix was made quickly and has been in use in sid and wheezy
since January this year.
I would like to apply the same fix in squeeze. Last time I checked,
it worked (though I'd of course check again before uploading). Sandro
(the maintainer) has said an NMU with that fix (debdiff attached)
would be fine. Sensible?
Thanks for your work,
Jonathan
