Public bug reported: Ubuntu 13.04 contains 2 packages with the same software:
- jplayer: Ubuntu-only package, contains an old version (1.2.0). It was also available in 12.10. - libjs-jquery-jplayer + jquery-jplayer-bluemonday + jquery-jplayer-pinkflag: the Debian package (which I'm the maintainer of), contains a newer version (2.1.0, to be updated this week due to a security fix). It has become available in 13.04. IMHO, jPlayer should be provided with the libjs-jquery-jplayer package and the 'jplayer' package be reduced to a transitional package. The transition plan would be like this: - I will add to libjs-jquery-jplayer these fields: "Replaces: jplayer (<< 2.1.0~)" and "Conflicts: jplayer (<< 2.1.0~)" and maintain them at least until Ubuntu 12.10 runs ouf of support. - You will add to jplayer this field: "Depends: libjs-jquery-jplayer". This package needs to be separately maintained because I will not be providing it in Debian (it is not required and violates the archive policy). Please tell me what you think ** Affects: jplayer (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1169456 Title: Duplicate package To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jplayer/+bug/1169456/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
