Source: sparkleshare
Version: 1.5.0-2
Severity: serious
Tags: patch pending

sparkleshare was removed from Debian Testing a month ago because it
depends on webkitgtk-sharp3 which uses the unmaintained webkitgtk
library that is being removed from Debian.

webkit-sharp2 has recently been uploaded to Debian as a replacement
for webkitgtk-sharp3.

I am uploading a NMU now that is numbered as sparkleshare 1.5.0-2.1
which uses a patch applied in Fedora 27 (slightly modified to apply in
Debian) to build against the new library so that sparkleshare can
return to Debian Testing. I am uploading to DELAYED/7. Please let me
know if I should delay this fix any further.

I'll be attaching the patches in the follow-up to this bug.

Thanks,
Jeremy Bicha
