Package: sylpheed Version: 3.0.2-1 Severity: minor Since version 3.0 Sylpheed gained auto-update functionality. To quote upstream changelog:
src/mainwindow.c: implemented update check (using curl). Apparently this feature crawled its way into the Debian package. One can easily see this, as Sylpheed spits on startup the following (in the absence of installed curl): (sylpheed:27940): Sylpheed-WARNING **: Couldn't execute curl What is worse - there is not meaningful way to disable auto-update via Sylpheed GUI. The appropriate setting in sylpheedrc is called 'auto_update_check'. So, either: 1) Sylpheed should get curl to its Recommends. 2) This feature should be disabled. I installed this package the usual way, so I expect it updating the usual way - apt-get, aptitude and friends. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages sylpheed depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 1.30.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.11.2-2 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcairo2 1.8.10-4 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libcompfaceg1 1:1.5.2-5 Compress/decompress images for mai ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.24-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.86-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libenchant1c2a 1.6.0-1 a wrapper library for various spel ii libfontconfig1 2.8.0-2.1 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.4.2-1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libglib2.0-0 2.24.1-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgpg-error0 1.6-1 library for common error values an ii libgpgme11 1.2.0-1.2 GPGME - GnuPG Made Easy ii libgtk2.0-0 2.20.1-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libgtkspell0 2.0.16-1 a spell-checking addon for GTK's T ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.17-2.1 OpenLDAP libraries ii libonig2 5.9.1-1 Oniguruma regular expressions libr ii libpango1.0-0 1.28.1-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpisock9 0.12.5-2 library for communicating with a P ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8o-1 SSL shared libraries Versions of packages sylpheed recommends: pn aspell-en | aspell-dictionary <none> (no description available) ii ca-certificates 20090814 Common CA certificates pn sylpheed-i18n <none> (no description available) pn xfonts-100dpi | xfonts-75dpi <none> (no description available) Versions of packages sylpheed suggests: pn bogofilter <none> (no description available) pn bsfilter <none> (no description available) pn claws-mail-tools <none> (no description available) pn jpilot <none> (no description available) pn sylpheed-doc <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
