The purpose of these tests is not *only* to check that MIME-Version is set or not set, or set on line 27 vs. set on line 31. So, I think it does make sense to update the reference files in the test suite so that they match the expected behaviour of this module on current Debian testing/sid (due to changes in a dependency), and the resulting updated test suite will still be relevant to catch other bugs or other future build failures caused by other changes in other dependencies :] So, I'd say go ahead. Besides, I'm going to ping rjbs on RT#35979 so that our patch against MIME-Lite, that we've been shipping in testing/sid for 10 months without any complain so far, gets a chance to be merged upstream. So, hopefully the patch that will update the test suite to fix the bug at hand will be short-lived as a purely Debian one, and can be upstreamed too soon! :) Stefan, what do you think? Shall we go ahead and (with a few Debian Perl Group members here at DebCamp) do a (non-maintainer) upload of libmime-lite-html-perl with the suggested changes to fix that RC bug? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
