If it is ok with debian policy I am also ok with closing the bug. The Ubuntu testing migration is of no concern to Debian, and most likely not related to matlab-support but a different Ubuntu problem (an unwise incomplete libmatio transition). It would be nice to change the desktop file to state something like Matlab Integration instead of just Matlab to avoid the problem in .desktop based software centers (assuming debian software center behaves the same way). I also want to apologize for the remark on the package quality. It was unwarranted, not productive and just essentially showed that I did not do my homework properly. Sorry, I'll try to be more respectful and thorough in future. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
