Package: util-linux Version: 2.32.1-0.1 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate *** * What led up to the situation? I searched the internet for a way to format MarkDown tables in vim. I found a StackOverflow thread recommending to use the new version of 'column' with its -o option (output separator). Unfortuantely, even Buster still contains the outdated version. While vim may have alternative ways like the tabular plugin, other programs do not (for example the kakoune editor). links that may be helpful: The Launchpad page blames debian for incorrectly identifying the bsdutils version of column as the newer one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/util-linux/+bug/1705437 The -o option was implemented 5 years ago: https://gitlab.apertis.org/packaging/util-linux/commit/47bd8ddc5b72739cf30f287ce84c984eb05b124e *** End of the template - remove these template lines *** -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.17.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages util-linux depends on: ii fdisk 2.32.1-0.1 ii libaudit1 1:2.8.4-2 ii libblkid1 2.32.1-0.1 ii libc6 2.27-6 ii libmount1 2.32.1-0.1 ii libpam0g 1.1.8-3.8 ii libselinux1 2.8-1+b1 ii libsmartcols1 2.32.1-0.1 ii libsystemd0 239-9 ii libtinfo6 6.1+20180714-1 ii libudev1 239-9 ii libuuid1 2.32.1-0.1 ii login 1:4.5-1.1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.11.dfsg-1 util-linux recommends no packages.
