Bug#1007060: lmodern: please consider upgrading to 3.0 source format

[Norbert Preining <norbert@preining.info>]

tag 1007060 + wontfix
severity 1007060 wishlist
thanks

Hi

> bookworm.  Please upgrade it to source format 3.0, as (1) this format has many
> advantages, as documented in https://wiki.debian.org/Projects/DebSrc3.0 ; (2)

The advantages do not really apply in this case. The packaging has been
stable since many years, despite a tried switch to 3.0 which was
reverted:

lmodern (2.004.5-5) unstable; urgency=medium

  * go back to source format 1.0, dpkg/quilt creates irrelevant
    directories in case no patches are available, breaking builds
    (Closes: #906762)

I would close this bug, but for now wishlist and add tag wontfix.


Norbert
