Please backport pidgin-musictracker 0.4.18-1 to Hardy and Intrepid

[Hew]

musictracker 0.4.1-1 in Hardy and Intrepid has a dead upstream, and has been taken over by a new upstream as pidgin-musictracker, currently 0.4.13-1 in Jaunty. This includes a huge number of bug fixes, as well as some new features (MSNP15 "now listening" support) http://code.google.com/p/pidgin-musictracker/wiki/ChangeLog0point4 . Please backport this useful package to Hardy and Intrepid.

Note that the sourcepackage names are different (musictracker -> pidgin-musictracker), but the debs are both pidgin-musictracker so this shouldn't be a problem.

[Frits Letteboer (f-letteboer)]

Confirmed; Prevu'd it. Builds, installs and runs on Intrepid. Builds on Hardy (install not tested). Has no rdepends. Shows up in Pidgin's plugin list and is configurable.

pidgin-musictracker 0.4.13-1 now in Jaunty (bugfix release). Please backport this version.

[Alessio "Spinus" Moscatello (spinus)]

Version 0.4.13-1 works fine on Hardy

[Hew (hew)]

What is the status of this backport? Musictracker 0.4.1 is so broken, it's a problem in particular for the LTS release. It could be fixed simply with this backport.

any news?

At this stage it is unlikely we will see backports for these releases.
