[Sync Request Universe] psi 0.11~rc2-1

[Maia Everett]

Binary package hint: psi

I have built a preliminary package of psi 0.11RC1. It is available at revu at http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=5513 .

Rationale: version 0.11 uses Qt4 instead of Qt3, so the earlier we resolve the associated issues, the better.

This package uses bundled QCA2; Psi's configure script allows this and provides an empty source tree in release tarballs (however, the SVN version does use bundled QCA2). The reason for this is that Ubuntu doesn't have packages for QCA2, and Debian's packages conflict with QCA1.

The downside is, the diff.gz is ridiculously large because of the added QCA source. Perhaps if I can get upstream developers to release a tarball with bundled QCA...

Attaching the diff between the debian/ dirs.

Never mind the current REVU package; it's a mess.

Bundled QCA2 is not the way to go; this bug depends on syncing/merging/packaging QCA2 separately. See bug #128505.

psi 0.11~rc2 is now available in Debian experimental. It is not yet in the pool, however.

[Barry deFreese (bddebian)]

Please sync psi 0.11~rc2-1 from Debian Experimental. Component: main. Target: Universe.

Package will dep-wait on qca2 which is recently new in Gutsy but does build and install cleanly. There is a -2 release on Experimental but I believe there are issues with it but I cannot confirm that. I suppose we could sync after the fact if necessary?

Disregard the above comment. Sync -1, per Barry deFreese's comment.

[Scott Kitterman (kitterman)]

I think this should wait for Gutsy +1. Qt3 is still the primary Qt, so getting a Qt4 version in is not essential at all.

agreeing with scottk here - we're a month from release.
