Bug#349674: Could the severity of this bug be reduced to allow unison into testing?
severity 349674 important thanks Hello, On Thu, Oct 19, 2006 at 08:38:47AM +0100, Reuben Thomas wrote: Rationale: this is a bug in all current versions of unison. It applies to a specific use case, one in which one of the media is likely to disappear during backup. By all means add a big fat warning until the bug is fixed, but please don't prevent us getting the up-to-date version of unison. The version currently in testing, 2.9.1, is built with hacks, has UI problems as a result (I filed a bug which was reasonably closed wontfix about this) and has bugs and missing features compared to the current version; hence, allowing the current version into testing is an improvement all round. A comprehensive user :-) OK, i agree with the severity lowering. I will apply the correction that the upstream proposed to me : explain in README.Debian that using unison on removable media in batch mode is unsafe (it is enough specific to lower the bug severity). FYI, i will begin to work on a correction of this ASAP (ie when i will have made my other package enter etch with a decent version number).
