Bug#702882: Status of igraph packaging for Debian
Hi Tamás, thanks for your work on this package. I guess it is OK for you if I added you to the Uploaders field and injected you as the owner as the latest changelog entry.

You can close bugs inside d/changelog and so I did. Thanks again Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#702882: Status of igraph packaging for Debian
Hi Andreas, > I realised that there remains an open bug to version 0.6.5. Could you > please check whether this exists or not. I have recently committed a patch that seems to have fixed this bug. In particular, we are not linking to f2c any more because it is needed only if we also use the internal BLAS, LAPACK or ARPACK implementations (which we don't use). One of my other patches also ensures that dh_auto_test runs all the unit tests, and they all compile just fine. FWIW, the patch I committed is temporary; the configure script in the upstream repo already does a better job at deciding whether linking to f2c is needed or not, but this version is likely to be included in the next release only. The patch I committed here only ensures that we are not linking to f2c at all, it does not attempt to fix the detection of libf2c or the logic that decides whether linking to f2c is necessary or not. Anyway, I think that this bug can safely be closed once the updated package (0.7.1-2) is uploaded. Most of the patches that I added to 0.7.1-2 now can also be removed once upstream releases the next version because these patches are also merged into upstream. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Mathieu, what do you think? I am not interested in igraph anymore: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=729516 the remaining bug is still the same as back with our previous discussion: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=702882#77 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Hi Tamás, I realised that there remains an open bug to version 0.6.5. Could you please check whether this exists or not. Mathieu, what do you think? Kind regards Andreas.
