Bug#767074: unblock: taurus/3.3.1+dfsg-1



so here the question

Yes I know about the package, I trust also the upstream when they did that they did all the usual tests.
They did the effort to prepare a release for Debian8.
To my opinion,it is better to take all the modifications instead of starting  to extract only the most important fixes.

I do not want to propose something different than the official upsteam version in the Debian distribution.
I do not want to see on internet comment like, do not use the Debian version it is not equivalent to the official upstream version.
forme this a moral contract between us and me.

Other point , even if this package popcon is very low it is very important for the community behind it.
(the synchrotron radiation facilities community [1])


- so my advice as DD to the release team is that Debian8 would be better with this version of the package for this community.

Cheers

Frederic
