[Bug 271219] Re: Backport GnuPlot 4.2.3 to Hardy
I verified that the Hardy issues are all due to the old libedit version in Hardy: I rebuilt the Intrepid libedit on Hardy, and now everything in gnuplot works.

[Bug 271219] Re: Backport GnuPlot 4.2.3 to Hardy
The zooming problem (actually the plot window is unresponsive to anything, the buttons are dead and 'h' does not do anything) does not appear when I run my Hardy binary in Intrepid. Maybe it's due to the old libraries (libedit?) in Hardy. The only other issue I see in Hardy is a "Warning: Could not write history file!!!" when I quit gnuplot, but this is harmless, the file is actually updated. Probably due to the old libedit function not returning the expected success value. We could patch gnuplot to ignore the return value in Hardy.

[Bug 271219] Re: Backport GnuPlot 4.2.3 to Hardy
I think debhelper 7 might be a "false" dependency. I replaced it by 6 and gnuplot 4.2.4 built fine. That is, I had to do another adjustment. The 3-year-old libedit in Hardy does not have the remove_history function. The use of remove_history was already ifdef'd so the code change is minimal, I refreshed the 03_use_libedit.diff so the debdiff is longer though. The only consequence of this change is that duplicate entries in the command history are not removed. Test builds are in my PPA. What worries me more is a regression in functionality in this newer upstream version: I can no longer zoom in on a graph by right-clicking. ** Attachment added: "debdiff of my PPA version" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/20201873/gnuplot_4.2.4-4%7Etormod2.debdiff -- Backport GnuPlot 4.2.3 to Hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/271219 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backports Testing Team, which is subscribed to Hardy Backports. -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports

[Bug 227464] Re: Please roll out security fixes from PHP 5.2.6
I agree with spinkham. It is a shame that a security issue in a main package (and php5 is pretty prominent when it comes to servers) has a tested debdiff sitting untouched for 5 weeks. Can't blame Kees and his two other colleagues - they have certainly been busy - but yes, there are only 3 (three) persons in the ubuntu-security team.

[Bug 227464] Re: Please Backport PHP 5.2.6 -- fixes important security bugs
Sounds good. I think my point is really that people mix up backports and SRU, and justifying a request for a package backport by needing security fixes is wrong, unless it turns out that it is too difficult to backport those fixes. I don't see anyone requesting any of the new features here. So I disagree with Mathias's comment, and we should follow https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates instead. I do acknowledge that it is faster to get a backport out than a SRU though, which is a little unfortunate. It would be ideal to have the SRU out first, so that people are not "tricked" into installing a backport that could cause incompatibility problems. BTW, the last, "huge" patch contains a lot of cosmetic fixes and changes in comments which should be taken out for the SRU patch (you might wonder why they squeezed all that into a "security fix"). I can take a look at it if that can speed up things.
