This embrace&extend approach doesn't exactly speak in favor of upstream's good development attitude :-( Kees, do we have a list of embedded code copies, similar to http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/secure-testing/data/embedded-code- copies?op=file ? It should at least be added there. Can someone please open a new bug against erlang to remove the embedded copy? Debian went through a major effort of removing embedded zlibs, since they were a real pain in the past several times. It feels sad to torpedo these efforts. -- move to main https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/401691 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
