Bug#695343: t-p-u pre-approval syslinux/2:4.05+dfsg-6+deb7u1
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock
Hi,
I would like to ask pre-approval to upload syslinux 2:4.05+dfsg-6+deb7u1 to
testing-proposed-updates. The debdiff is below.
This version fixes bug #687848 (extlinux-update: fails to correctly update
changed syslinux debian themes). Without this fix, the themes never get
updated (because they are put into a subfolder of the intended location), which
means that the fix for #681426 (syslinux-themes-debian-wheezy:
extlinux/theme.cfg refers to debian-squeeze files), which leaves the system
unbootable, doesn't work.
This bug has been fixed in unstable with the same patch in version
2:4.06+dfsg-3.
