Hi there,
Hi Sam
I maintain the Debian package of pymsnt. I recently found the utnubu
service that displays the differences between Debian packages and their
counterparts in Ubuntu. I looked up pymsnt and saw that you're patching
the code like so:
diff -Nur pymsnt-0.11.2/src/main.py pymsnt-0.11.2.new/src/main.py
--- pymsnt-0.11.2/src/main.py 2006-10-18 14:40:55.0 +1000
+++ pymsnt-0.11.2.new/src/main.py 2007-04-05 10:14:37.0
+1000

Could someone please let me know what the purpose of this patch is?
From debian/changelog:
- debian/patches/130_twisted_2.5.patch: Add patch to work with
Twisted 2.5.
I'm CCing Lionel, who added that patch, in case he has something else to
say.
In addition it would be nice if you could push changes upstream to the
maintainer of the Debian package and to the original upstream
developers, so that other users of Debian, Debian-derived distributions
and other distributions can benefit from them. :)
We try to do it, but it's true we can improve there. At least I can
improve :)
Regards,
Cheers
