control: retitle 702359 psi-plus: FTBFS with libotr5
control: tags 702359 - patch


Hi,

> unstable.

libotr2-dev is still available in unstable and it will be there until all
packages with this dependency migrate to libotr5-dev. So psi-plus is currently
built fine.

> Consider the attached patch.

This patch is wrong. libotr2 and libotr5 libraries have different API and such
change in debian/control will just cause to FTBFS of psi-plus. Related plugin of
Psi+ should be ported to libotr >= 4.0 or necessary patch should be prepared.

Also it is interesting why libotr2 --> libotr5 transition was not made in a sane
way. (Like libpng 1.2 --> 1.5, for example)

Best regards,
Boris
