Bug#526078: RM: xfree86-driver-synaptics -- renamed to xserver-xorg-input-synaptics; only provides obsolete packages
Package: ftp.debian.org
07:53 <dato> Ganneff, jcristau: I think xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/1.1.0-1
(source) was wrongly removed from unstable
07:56 <dato> Ganneff: by checking projectb, you can see the
xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/1.1.0-1 (binary) package is marked as
provided by xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/1.1.0-1 (source), so I'm
not sure why the cruft script thought it was an obsolete package
07:58 <dato> Ganneff: AIUI (jcristau can confirm), the obsolete package are
xfree86-driver-synaptics/0.14.7~git20070706-3 (source) and
xfree86-driver-synaptics/0.14.7~git20070706-3 (binary); but these
couldn't have been auto-detected, and a bug should have been
filed. I'll do that now.
So, this bug needs two actions: removal of xfree86-driver-synaptics,
bringing back xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/1.1.0-1 (source) to unstable
(it's in projectb and in the pool, so it should be possible).
Cheers,
