• Bug#1099894: transition: addresses-for-gnustep/gnustep-addresses

    From Yavor Doganov@21:1/5 to All on Sun Mar 9 13:50:02 2025
    XPost: linux.debian.devel.release

    Package: release.debian.org
    Severity: normal
    X-Debbugs-Cc: addresses-for-gnustep@packages.debian.org
    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";
