Bug Description

9.4.3-6 contains a lot of packaging cleanup and fixes from the Debian QA team that we should merge into Ubuntu. Notably, this is of interest:

  * Make /usr/bin/icon a symlink to /usr/bin/icont, fpllowing upstream.
    This should allow writing scripts using #!/usr/bin/icon.

This bug was fixed in the package icon - 9.4.3-6ubuntu1

---------------
icon (9.4.3-6ubuntu1) artful; urgency=medium

  * Merge from Debian Sid (LP: #1704036). Remaining changes:
    - Switch the testsuite to use /usr/share/base-files/motd instead of
      /etc/motd, since base-files ships the former.

icon (9.4.3-6) unstable; urgency=medium

  * QA upload.
  * Drop outdated manpage debian/icon.1.
  * Use man/man1/icon.1 and man/man1/icont.1 from original tarball.
  * Drop iconc package. It does not work, it is not supported upstream,
    and it does not even exist in version 9.5.1. Closes: #345425.
  * Rename debian/rules targets test-icont and benchmark-icont to
    just test and benchmark.
  * Make /usr/bin/icon a symlink to /usr/bin/icont, fpllowing upstream.
    This should allow writing scripts using #!/usr/bin/icon.

icon (9.4.3-5) unstable; urgency=medium

  * QA upload.
  * Package is orphaned (Bug #738875), set Maintainer to "Debian QA Group".
  * Do not run the tests as root. This used to make the build to fail on
    the Hurd. It does not anymore, but it's a bug anyway. Closes: #654381.
  * Ack NMUs. This should now build on sparc and mips. Closes: #660466.
  * Add build-arch and build-indep targets to debian/rules. Closes: #821993.
  * Apply patch from Reiner Herrmann to build reproducibly. Closes: #829133.
  * Switch to "3.0 (quilt)" source format.
  * General cleanup of debian/rules.
