The new version of the MySQL connector, which is about to be uploaded, will probably not make it to etch (since the upstream version changed). If the release managers do not make an exception, then I would rather let the package be dropped from etch altogether, which is why I have raised the severity to "serious".
Except it's a new upstream, did you make a lot of changes to the 'debian section' of the package?
The current version of the MySQL connector does not work well with MySQL 5, the version of MySQL in etch. Releasing etch with the old version will only lead to irritated users and yet more bug reports. Are there any strong feelings about this?
Ask Release Manager to get the new connector for Etch. If it's not possible, it's better to remove the old one. I also had some problems with the old connector and MySQL5. -- Arnaud Vandyck -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
