The Debian changes can be safely incorporated into Ubuntu, since this is going to be a merge, I'll provide the patch in a minute. The package builds fine in a lucid chroot:

dpkg-deb: building package `mew-bin' in `../mew-bin_6.3-1_i386.deb'.
 dpkg-genchanges >../mew_6.3-1_i386.changes
dpkg-genchanges: including full source code in upload
dpkg-buildpackage: full upload (original source is included)
I: Copying back the cached apt archive contents
I: unmounting dev/pts filesystem
I: unmounting proc filesystem
I: cleaning the build env
I: removing directory /var/cache/pbuilder/build//3615 and its subdirectories
I: Current time: Mon Jan 4 22:43:54 EST 2010

This patch does not look like correct. It only contains changes to debian/changelog and the update-maintainer part. Please provide a proper debdiff between Debian and Ubuntu. Then resubscribe ubuntu-universe-sponsors.

Hi,

It seems that the dependency has been added in debian, in version 1:6.3-2 (in unstable, for the moment):
 mew (1:6.3-2) unstable; urgency=low

   * debian/control:
     - Add `emacs-snapshot' to Depends.
     - Set Section of mew to lisp.
   * debian/copyright: Updated.

Can you check, and if it's the case, convert this merge request into a sync request, and subscribe again u-u-s ?

Thanks!

Fabrice
