Great, this looks like a reasonable backport. A few tweaks: drush 4.5-2 is not currently available in Ubuntu:
evan@caron:~$ rmadison drush drush | 2.0-6 | lucid/universe | source, all drush | 3.1-1 | maverick/universe | source, all drush | 4.4-1~lucid1 | lucid-backports/universe | source, all drush | 4.4-1~maverick1 | maverick-backports/universe | source, all drush | 4.4-1 | natty/universe | source, all drush | 4.4-2 | oneiric/universe | source, all drush | 4.5-4 | precise/universe | source, all I'm going to assume you wanted 4.5-4, which means that we will also need to do a backport to Oneiric, so I've gone ahead and adjusted the bug for that. I've uploaded test backports of drush 4.5-4 to my PPA (https://launchpad.net/~broder/+archive/backports-tests). Please test that the package builds, installs, and runs in all 4 releases. drush has a single reverse-dependency (aegir-provision), but based on discussion on the last backport, it does not need to be tested. Once you've finished testing, please set the status of the bug to Confirmed. In order to make backports faster in the future, I'd recommend using the requestbackport script from ubuntu-dev-tools (currently available in either Precise or https://launchpad.net/~udt-developers/+archive/daily). The script walks through all of the testing required so that you can have it done when you open the bug. ** Also affects: oneiric-backports Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: oneiric-backports Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: lucid-backports Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: maverick-backports Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: natty-backports Status: New => Incomplete ** Summary changed: - please backport drush 4.5-2 + please backport drush 4.5-4 from precise ** Changed in: oneiric-backports Importance: Undecided => Wishlist ** Changed in: lucid-backports Importance: Undecided => Wishlist ** Changed in: maverick-backports Importance: Undecided => Wishlist ** Changed in: natty-backports Importance: Undecided => Wishlist -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backporters, which is the registrant for natty-backports. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/899655 Title: please backport drush 4.5-4 from precise To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/lucid-backports/+bug/899655/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports
