Dear release managers,
here a simple unblock request for alqalam 0.2-5
This package didn't see any changes since ages, it is the same in stable,
testing, unstable. But it has one problem I only realized when testing
experimental version of texlive packages: It still depends on
texlive-lang-arab | arabtex
Now, arabtex is gone since ... I don't know, it is not in stable.
texlive-lang-arab was in TeX Live 2007 ... which was etch? Anyway,
the new name in TeX Live since 2009 is texlive-lang-arabic, and till now
texlive-lang-arabic provided texlive-lang-arab, but I would like to drop it.
So the changes are:
* add myself to the uploaders
* replace the old dependency on texlive-lang-arab | arabtex with just
one texlive-lang-arabic
The first change is accorded with the current "uploader" Ahmed El-Mahmoudy,
see debian-tex-maint mailing list. The second change drops the mentioned
two dependencies and replaces them with texlive-lang-arabic.
For convenience, a git diff between the releases is attached.
