Bug#691196: unblock: gentle/1.9+cvs20100605+dfsg1-1

[Andreas Tille <tille@debian.org>]

Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock

Please unblock package gentle

as it is stated in the problematic bug report (#685149) the problem was
dealt with.  Unfortunately the propagation from contrib to main which was
approached with this upload (should have been done formerly) was delayed
due to some trouble with DAK.

The usually requested debdiff would involve some removed binaries (as
requestet in the bug report #685149) and so I rather comment on the
single changelog entries:


  * debian/rules:
     - Make sure that binary dlls will be deleted when unpacking
       Closes: #685149

-> as requested.

     - Use xz compression for upstream source

-> makes perfectly sense due to a way better compression rate once
   the source is repackaged anyway.

     - Drop *.a files from upstream source in get-orig-source target

-> Also remove static library of GPLed code which is missing in the
   source as requested by ftpmaster to accept the package

  * Versioned depends from DFSG free clustalw -> package can go to main

-> clustalw used to be non-free formerly - the versioned Depends
   enables moving the package from contrib to main

  * debian/control:
     - fix broken VCS fields

-> long standing fix we had in SVN - there would have been no point
   to ship the package with broken VCS fields just to keep the diff
   small

     - Standards-Version: 3.9.4 (no changes needed)

-> This was actually stupid and should not have been done for Wheezy
   migration - should not harm anyway

  * debian/upstream: Add citation information

-> Finally a documentation file which lasted for a long time in our
   SVN - there was no point in excluding it from the new package
   (even if I'm fully aware that we should keep the diff small)


Thanks for considering an unblock for gentle and for all your hard work

      Andreas.
