Package: xscreensaver Version: 5.30-1+deb8u1 Followup-For: Bug #819703 Dear Maintainer,
I have a better solution. Dispense with the horse shit. Either provide a upstream version to be packaged(and backported) or permanently remove the offending code(and warnings). and as per upstream: needs to be backported or pushed into updates server. both may be options, but when selected the updates are EXPECTED. At least this update is NOT PRESENT. Thats a packaging fault. I know of QT5(core) and Mono (v4) updates missing also. And debs are available, so dont gimmie that line. Nobody asked for acenine response from ANY dev, and surely such is COMPLETELY unwarranted. If you want your package included in distributions, make the concessions necessary to maintain the codebase with said. Otherwise, either DONT OFFER the code, or DONT package it further. Drop it from the repos if the maintainer wont comply. That should be a debian core policy. I know several here are also acenine (with reports) or are acenine C devs that dont give a flying eff about anyone, but thats the wrong mentality to take with anyone. More than half of the time said acenine devs have no clue what they are coding. Yes, I can put my code where my mouth is, despite my unpopular view on C. Clearly bug reports and handling is yall policy, but being the nature of "whats and whos" involved these reports should be taken more seriously than frivious borsht.Its not about liking the bug reporter, its about dealing with the bug. Maybe its not so serious, MAYBE ITS WORSE. Clearly someone needs to get thier ass in gear. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.3 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages xscreensaver depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 2.14.0-1 ii libc6 2.19-18+deb8u3 ii libcairo2 1.14.0-2.1 ii libfontconfig1 2.11.0-6.3 ii libfreetype6 2.5.2-3+deb8u1 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.31.1-2+deb8u4 ii libglade2-0 1:2.6.4-2 ii libglib2.0-0 2.42.1-1 ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.25-3 ii libice6 2:1.0.9-1+b1 ii libpam0g 1.1.8-3.1+deb8u1 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.36.8-3 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.36.8-3 ii libpangoft2-1.0-0 1.36.8-3 ii libsm6 2:1.2.2-1+b1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.2-3 ii libxext6 2:1.3.3-1 ii libxi6 2:1.7.4-1+b2 ii libxinerama1 2:1.1.3-1+b1 ii libxml2 2.9.1+dfsg1-5+deb8u1 ii libxmu6 2:1.1.2-1 ii libxpm4 1:3.5.11-1+b1 ii libxrandr2 2:1.4.2-1+b1 ii libxrender1 1:0.9.8-1+b1 ii libxt6 1:1.1.4-1+b1 ii libxxf86vm1 1:1.1.3-1+b1 ii xscreensaver-data 5.30-1+deb8u1 Versions of packages xscreensaver recommends: ii libjpeg-turbo-progs [libjpeg-progs] 1:1.3.1-12 ii perl [perl5] 5.20.2-3+deb8u4 ii wamerican [wordlist] 7.1-1 Versions of packages xscreensaver suggests: ii chromium [www-browser] 49.0.2623.108-1~deb8u1 ii dillo [www-browser] 3.0.4-2+b1 ii elinks [www-browser] 0.12~pre6-5+b2 ii fortune-mod [fortune] 1:1.99.1-7 pn gdm3 | kdm-gdmcompat <none> ii iceweasel [www-browser] 38.7.1esr-1~deb8u1 ii konqueror [www-browser] 4:4.14.2-1 ii links2 [www-browser] 2.8-2+b3 ii lynx-cur [www-browser] 2.8.9dev1-2+deb8u1 ii opera-stable [www-browser] 36.0.2130.46 pn qcam | streamer <none> ii w3m [www-browser] 0.5.3-19 pn xdaliclock <none> pn xfishtank <none> ii xscreensaver-gl 5.30-1+deb8u1 -- no debconf information
