Version: 14.3.1-1build1
Severity: wishlist
This fixes some important bugs, including the failure of ffmpeg to
work on common machines, and also bug #555940 (which I just closed by
mistake; sorry, I’ve now reopened it).
It could also be used to make the necessary build change to fix
Package: noweb
Version: 2.11b-7build1
Severity: minor
The pattern for noweb files:
\\.nw$
should be rather
\\.nw\\'
so that files with further suffixes (such as VCS earlier versions of
the form foo.nw.~1234~) also work. See default auto-mode-alist entries
if in doubt. This applies equally
Package: emacs-goodies-el
Version: 33.6ubuntu1
Severity: minor
As for the default patterns in FSF Emacs/XEmacs, the pattern for
auto-mode-alist should end \\', not $, so that it works e.g. with
version-controlled checked out files like foo.tlc.~1234~

In the default /etc/roundup/roundup-admin.ini, there is a line:

There are two problems with this. First,

called “hostname”, not “host”. Secondly, the same document also says “

There’s no hint I can find in the docs whether the reason you don’t
compile for emacs-snapshot is because it doesn’t work, or it’s not
needed, or simply because the install script is out of date.

This bug was in fact acted on, as when it was filed the Debian version
was 307a, and it is now 4.13a, whcih was current when the bug was
filed.
However, latexmk development has moved on, so can it please be
updated? The updates seem to be

One final thing I meant to mention: the version number in the man page
is 1.0.10; I suggest removing it, or you could update it to 1.20pre5.

Tags: patch
There are some mistakes in the man page brandy(1) (which is from
Debian, not upstream):
1. You talk about “BASIC V” as distinct from “BBC BASIC”, but “BASIC
V” is simply version 5 of BBC BASIC.
I suggest you rewrite the first

M-x dict reports return codes 20 21 from dict, which are not really
errors, since they mean “no match” or “approximate match only”.
This also results in the creation of tens of dict buffers most
containing just an error message.

I attach a patch to fix this bug, though it’s not ideal.
There are various problems.
1. dict.el doesn’t allow dashes in dict names (in dict-get-databases,
though it does in dict-get-database-names). This means the list
Package: emacs-goodies-el

Severity: normal
I note that dictionary.el suffers from the same problem. However, it’s
superior in other ways; not least in that it contains its own dict
client, and doesn’t rely on the command-line one. It’s also got a
rather richer UI.
