Package: scim Version: 1.4.9-7 Severity: normal Whan you upload the newer scim package, please drop me from control file and a uploader. I do not wish to be listed there.
New upstreams have been available: * scim 1.4.10 has been released on Sunday 05 June 2011 * scim 1.4.11 has been released on Sunday 07 August 2011 * Today is 24 November 2011 Prompt packaging is one sign of good package maintenance situation which gives sense of security for security risk management. (We all know we are volunteer so sometimes difficult to do though.) I am expecting you to upload the newer scim package with the proper GTK3 (hopefull Qt4 too) immodule support to archive very soon. That is why I am sending this as reminder. Also, please drop README.Qt and make appropriate changes elsewhere. As we discussed, here is confirmation of my position is that this package should be dropped from the archive: REASON: * there is a very similar package in better shape, namely ibus. * scim upstream is not active enough for security support. * scim has not been updated its autotools tool chain and QT4 support Osamu -- Package-specific info: Related packages: ii libscim8c2a 1.4.9-7 library for SCIM platform ii scim 1.4.9-7 smart common input method platform ii scim-anthy 1.2.7-3 SCIM IMEngine module for Anthy ii scim-bridge-ag 0.4.16-3 IME server of scim-bridge communicate with S ii scim-bridge-cl 0.4.16-3 IME server of scim-bridge communicate with S ii scim-bridge-cl 0.4.16-3 IME server of scim-bridge communicate with S ii scim-bridge-cl 0.4.16-3 IME server of scim-bridge communicate with S ii scim-gtk2-immo 1.4.9-7 GTK+2 input method module with SCIM as backe ii scim-modules-s 1.4.9-7 socket modules for SCIM platform Related environment variables: $XMODIFIERS=@im=ibus $GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus $QT_IM_MODULE= Installed SCIM components: /usr/lib/scim-1.0: 1.4.0 scim-helper-launcher scim-helper-manager scim-launcher scim-panel-gtk /usr/lib/scim-1.0/1.4.0: Config Filter FrontEnd Helper IMEngine SetupUI /usr/lib/scim-1.0/1.4.0/Config: simple.so socket.so /usr/lib/scim-1.0/1.4.0/Filter: sctc.so /usr/lib/scim-1.0/1.4.0/FrontEnd: socket.so x11.so /usr/lib/scim-1.0/1.4.0/Helper: anthy-imengine-helper.so setup.so /usr/lib/scim-1.0/1.4.0/IMEngine: anthy.so rawcode.so socket.so /usr/lib/scim-1.0/1.4.0/SetupUI: aaa-frontend-setup.so aaa-imengine-setup.so anthy-imengine-setup.so panel-gtk-setup.so -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.1.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages scim depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 2.2.0-2 ii libc6 2.13-21 ii libcairo2 1.10.2-6.1 ii libfontconfig1 2.8.0-3 ii libfreetype6 2.4.8-1 ii libgcc1 1:4.6.2-5 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.24.0-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.30.2-4 ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.8-2 ii libpango1.0-0 1.29.4-2 ii libscim8c2a 1.4.9-7 ii libstdc++6 4.6.2-5 ii libx11-6 2:1.4.4-4 Versions of packages scim recommends: ii im-config [im-switch] 0.5 ii scim-bridge-agent 0.4.16-3 ii scim-gtk2-immodule 1.4.9-7 Versions of packages scim suggests: pn scim-anthy 1.2.7-3 pn scim-canna <none> pn scim-chewing <none> pn scim-hangul <none> pn scim-m17n <none> pn scim-pinyin <none> pn scim-prime <none> pn scim-skk <none> pn scim-tables-additional <none> pn scim-tables-ja <none> pn scim-tables-ko <none> pn scim-tables-zh <none> pn scim-thai <none> pn scim-uim <none> -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
