Dan, have you tried contacting Emmanuel Beffara, developer of rubber? The project home page is at http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~beffara/soft/rubber/
Upstream communication in Ubuntu is a lot more fluid with larger projects like GNOME than it is with small ones like rubber. This seems sensible to me. I'm not a dev or a MOTU, but it's apparent that package maintainers can't start updating stale source packages, unless they are of high importance to many users. That amounts to assuming maintenance responsibility not just for the packaging (as in https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/intrepid/+source/rubber/1.1-2.2, this August) but for the source itself, and is probably pretty burdensome. I love rubber, but I don't think it fits that high-profile category. Let's try and get Mr. Beffara to push out another release, so the maintainers can simply refresh the source with the same packaging. -- does not interpret directives if comment character is preceded by spaces https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/195258 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
