Bug#694919: unblock: haskell-dbus/0.10.3-1



Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock
X-Debbugs-Cc: jmillikin@gmail.com

Please unblock package haskell-dbus

The version currently in testing, 0.10, has two bugs which can cause problems
for users who run processes with lifetimes longer than the dbus service:

- If the connection to the dbus service is lost, the library enters a loop
  and causes massive unbounded memory consumption. Fixed in the upstream
  point release 0.10.2.

- If connecting to an address fails, the library will leak a file descriptor.
  When client code attempts reconnection in a loop, this may cause exhaustion
  of available file descriptors. Fixed in the upstream point release 0.10.3.

There are some minor changes in these releases which are unrelated to those
bugs. The unrelated changes are trivial updates to dependency version limits
in a build metadata file, and do not affect the Debian package.
