Bug Description
Rational:
The current version in Jaunty is very old, in view of the progress that has been made upstream the last months. Upstream has stated that this is quite important for them, as 0.5.9 (currently in Jaunty) was quite buggy and lacked a lot of important features. As this package is in main and will be officially supported by Canonical, keeping closer to both upstream and Debian will be helpful for backporting bug fixes ect.
I have built, installed, and used this under Jaunty. Build logs are available in the comments for elisa and all related plugin packages.
Other packages that need to be synced as part of transition:
pigment (0.3.14-1) - Please see Bug #331159
pigment-python (0.3.10-1) - Please see Bug #331162
Debian Changes:
elisa (0.5.28-1) experimental; urgency=low
* New upstream release.
* Added debian/
man-page shipped with the release.
* The NEWS.Debian file is only relevant for the elisa package, not
python-elisa.
* debian/rules:
- Make sure that elisa depends on python-elisa with exactly the same
source version. It will not start otherwise!

[ Paul van Tilburg ]
* New upstream release (closes: #499853, #491728, #507358).
* debian/control:

- Removed legacy Conflict/Breaks: elisa-core.
- Bumped the python-pgm depend to >= 0.3.9.
* debian/
- The elisa program is no longer located in bin/ in upstream, install
it from debian/tmp.
- Install shared data also from debian/tmp to be more consistent.

The current version in Jaunty is really old, in view of the progress that have been made upstream the last months. The packaging is done (see https:/ /launchpad. net/~elisa- developers/ +archive), it just needs the "official" stamp on it. Personally I am using the PPA builds and have much less problems than when using the official 0.5.9 version.
