please update to foolscap-0.4.2

[Zooko Wilcox-O'Hearn]

The current release of foolscap is foolscap-0.4.2. This new version is required for Tahoe-LAFS. Brian Warner has provided an Ubuntu package for foolscap-0.4.2 and uploaded it to REVU: http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/foolscap . Here is the .diff.gz from it:

[Artur Rona (ari-tczew)]

1) Change version to foolscap 0.4.2-0ubuntu1 (you'll upload package to Ubuntu, not Debian).
2) Set MaintainerFields. More on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebianMaintainerField
3) Please doesn't change Standards-Version, because it's rather work for Original-Maintainer in Debian.
4) What about file gbp.conf? Please include info about it in debian/changelog.
5) REVU is for new packages. Debian and Ubuntu both have got foolscap.

Please update your package and upload it on ppa for testing.

[Zooko Wilcox-O'Hearn (zooko)]

Ah, and foolscap-0.4.2+dfsg-1 was just uploaded to Debian unstable by POX, so please sync that, if that is an easier or better way to do it.

The following is intended to make this bug into a proper "sync request"
according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SyncRequestProcess

Source package name: foolscap

Source package version number to sync: 0.4.2+dfsg-1
 (current version in karmic: 0.3.2.dfsg-2, in 'universe')

Where to sync from: debian sid main

debian/changelog entries between current ubuntu and debian:

I've confirmed that the .dsc, .orig.tar.gz, and .diff.gz files are identical
between 0.3.2.dfsg-2 (in karmic) and 0.3.2.dfsg-2 (which is still in
squeeze), so there were no ubuntu-specific changes made in the existing
karmic version that would need to be carried over to 0.4.2 .

--

We're trying to get the new version of foolscap into karmic, because Tahoe
(whose FFe was just approved: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/421802)
depends upon the newer version. Please let me know if there's anything I can
do to help (I'm an upstream developer on both foolscap and tahoe).

The sync request was bug #420270 so I'm changing title of this bug report.
