severity 385146 wishlist thanks I've never used trac, but saw your report and felt a little strange. You blame a Debian version which version requirements are perfectly fullfilled (as you say, trac works with stable subversion) as shipped by Debian for a system you created by installing software not shipped in Debian. Moreover, trac broke because a *dependency* changed. How do you think the author of trac should have estimated this before the release of Sarge?
I think you can do one or more of the following:
a) complain against the person who installed the backported subversion
for breaking your setup
b) backport a more recent trac
c) check if tracs depencency in *sid* are correct; if they are not,
then update this bug with that info
d) point out which part of Debian policy is violated by your
combination of a Debian release with your own software packages
e) provide a solution how to avoid such situation in the future
f) explain what in your opinion should happen now: stable is only
updated with "severe" bugs (e.g. security, read the www.debian.org
or d-d-a for details), certainly not to fix some random dependency
for a backport
I'll leave further updates to this bug to the maintainer. In my
opinion this bug should be closed unless you can point evidence for
c), d) or f).
Greetings
Helge
