We're getting close to lucid's release, that's why we're picky as to what gets uploaded (we don't have much time for testing and bug fixing, and would rather have a slightly outdated version that we know works than a newer version that might not). The steps are here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess#FeatureFreeze%20for%20new%20upstream%20versions Specifically, the release team will need to see: - a diff of the upstream changelog - a pbuilder log (or a PPA for lucid) - an installation log (prove that it installs) - a description of the testing you did After that you can subscribe "ubuntu-release" (do not assign) and after they acknowledge it you can subscribe "ubuntu-sponsors" If the upstream changelog only shows bugfixes (no new features or API changes), you can skip "ubuntu-release" and go straight to sponsors (I haven't looked too closely at the upstream changelog, so I don't know if it is the case for your package). I did see that the newest version in unstable is 7.20.6-2 (not 7.20.6-1) and some library names that it depends on have changed. This might be something that we'd want to tackle at the beginning of a release cycle, prior to freeze. If the package is merely bug fixes, and it builds easily, it might be eligible for a FFE (feature freeze exception).

At this point in time we are past feature freeze in Lucid's development you will need to follow the Freeze Exception Process: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess#FeatureFreeze -- Brian Murray Ubuntu Bugmaster Days running lucid: 34 signature.asc Description: Digital signature -- Ubuntu-qa mailing list Ubuntu-qa@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-qa
package nip2 (7.20.6-1ubuntu2) [universe] in lucid needs updating
Hi everyone, I'd like to get package nip2 (7.20.6-1ubuntu2) [universe] updated to the version currently in Debian (http://packages.debian.org/testing/nip2). I filed a bug about it: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nip2/+bug/525783 Is there anything else I can do to give this a push? Did I tag the bug incorrectly? Thanks!
