hello release team,

i'd like to upload a new version of arandr to stable.

arandr versions before 0.1.7.1, as described in bug #718366 (originally
#507521), completely fail to work with some combinations of x servers
(which are present in wheezy), graphics cards and output devices.


the changes between 0.1.6-1 and 0.1.7.1-1 affect +94-24 lines of python
code, that's practically the minimal patch -- i could squeeze out a line
or two where just comments are modified, no more.

the larger part of the delta between wheezy and jessie are updates to
translation files (four new languages), and the resulting changes to
changelog, news, readme and debian/copyright. add changing
standards-version and adding a debian menu file, that's it.

given the delta on the program itself is already as good as minimal, and
given that 0.1.7.1-1 has been used in unstable for half a year without
additional bugs, i'd like to ask the release team for its opinion on
uploading an unmodified 0.1.7.1-1 (as in `dch -D stable -v
0.1.7.1-1+deb7u1 -m "Unmodified upload to stable"`). a debdiff from
wheezy to jessie is attached.


if you insist on a minimal diff, i can strip 0.1.7.1 down -- but it is
my opinion that the chance of making a mistake in the course of that is
much higher than the chance of introducing a bugs by uploading the
current testing version.

please let me know which course of action you prefer in this case
chrysn

There hasn't been an upload since this last mail in August; closing.
