Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal

Control: affects -1 + src:addresses-for-gnustep + src:gnustep-addresses
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: transition
Our intention was to do this transition together with the rest of the
GNUstep libraries (RT #1099081) but the package has been in NEW until
today. This is a bugfix release following a full audit of the code
inspired by #1087735. To cite the upstream announcement [1]:
,----
| AddressManager and Addresses Frameworks got a major maintenance
| release, 0.5.0. Highly recommended: code modernisation, highly
| improved encoding detection and RFC compliance for UTF-8, display
| fixes, memory and initialization handling, crash fixers....
`----
Both rdeps agenda.app and gnumail build fine against the new version.
There is no auto tracker because the source package was renamed from addresses-for-gnustep to gnustep-addresses to match the naming
convention that was proposed to the FTP masters [2] and the rest of
the GNUstep libraries/frameworks in the archive.
Here is a ben file constructed by reportbug:
title = "addresses-for-gnustep/gnustep-addresses";
is_affected = .depends ~ "libaddresses0" | .depends ~ "libaddressview0" | .depends ~ "libaddresses0.5.0" | .depends ~ "libaddressview0.5.0";
is_good = .depends ~ "libaddresses0.5.0" | .depends ~ "libaddressview0.5.0"; is_bad = .depends ~ "libaddresses0" | .depends ~ "libaddressview0";
