Bug#855021: unblock: nsf/2.1.0-2
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock
Dear release team,
I kindly ask you to unblock package nsf due to a critical omission bug
in its testing version 2.1.0-2 and to update it to the unstable
version 2.1.0-3.
Background: I have only recently learnt that 2.1.0-2 misses some
installation contents (Tcl script packages) which effectively break
the "nsf-shells" package. This is because my debian install directives
had missed two paths. The result is that the shells provided by
"nsf-shells" are broken, e.g.:
$ nxsh
can't find package nx::shell 1.1
while executing
"package require nx::shell 1.1"
(file "/usr/bin/nxsh" line 17)
2.1.0-3 (unstable) fixes this by a miniscule change (debdiff):
[The following lists of changes regard files as different if they have
different names, permissions or owners.]
