Public bug reported: Please sync pyfribidi 0.10.0-2 (universe) from Debian testing (main)
Explanation of FeatureFreeze exception: If I recall correctly, there was an issue that pyfribidi 0.6.0 used some internal (& currently removed) symbol in fribidi, that the fribidi upstream did not hide when he wrote fribidi 0.10.x. Another thing is that pyfribidi 0.6.0 is susceptible to heap-based buffer overflows when used with fribidi 0.19.x, please look at http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=570068 Changelog entries since current lucid version 0.6.0-4.1build1: pyfribidi (0.10.0-2) unstable; urgency=low * Added python-pyfribidi-dbg package. * debian/rules: + pass --buildsystem= instead of -S to dh, as a workaround for bug #570039. + Override dh_auto_test to run tests_pyfribidi.py * Added patch buffer_overflow.diff to create an output buffer that assumes 4-byte sequences for all Unicode characters (Closes: #570068) * Added patch testbigString.diff to resurrect bigString test that was removed in upstream release 0.8 -- أحمد المحمودي (Ahmed El-Mahmoudy) <aelmahmo...@users.sourceforge.net> Tue, 16 Feb 2010 22:40:15 +0200 pyfribidi (0.10.0-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release * Switch to 3.0 (quilt) source format. * Use dh 7 only and drop CDBS. * Use python-support instead of python-central. * Remove debian/dirs and debian/pycompat. * Added debian/source.lintian-overrides. * debian/control: + Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.4 + Added ${misc:Depends} to Depends field. + Added myself to uploaders. + Build-Depend on debhelper >= 7.4.13~ to correctly pass -S option to appropriate debhelper scripts. + Build-Depend on libfribidi-dev >= 0.19 + Maintainer changed to Debian Python Module Team with previous maintainer's permission: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/debian-hebrew-package/2010-February/002980.html + Added Vcs-* fields. + Drop Replaces & Conflicts, since last distribution which shipped python2.[34]-pyfribidi packages was sarge. + Enhance extended description. * debian/copyright: updated copyright years & holders. * debian/watch: inspect for .gz & .bz2 archives. -- أحمد المحمودي (Ahmed El-Mahmoudy) <aelmahmo...@users.sourceforge.net> Mon, 15 Feb 2010 21:29:13 +0200 ** Affects: pyfribidi (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- FFe: Sync pyfribidi 0.10.0-2 (universe) from Debian testing (main) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/557827 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
