Binary package hint: matchbox-window-manager

matchbox-window-manager (1.2-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * Patch from Stefan Lesicnik (Ubuntu) to provide the x-window-manager
    metapackage, and install the x-window-manager alternative.

Hello Mahyuddin

What about these changes?

- Add interpreter to prerm (LP: #272450)

- Merge in lots of stuff from Maemo and upstream, enable window animations.

Why do you think they can be dropped?

and can you please provide a buildlog of the debian package compiling well in updated natty chroot?

and as said in the earlier bug (which I am copy-pasting here)

you should *never* subscribe ubuntu archive admins on yourselves when you are filing a sync request it will be done by the sponsors (MOTU in case of universe,multiverse and core-dev in case of main or restricted) upon ACK of the sync request

cf: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SyncRequestProcess

Marking as incomplete due to pending further investigation as to detailed explanation of why the package can be synced

regards

PS: anyone please unsubscribe ubuntu archive for now

kind regards

Unsubcribing ubuntu-archive, there doesn't seem to be a request for us here.

[Artur Rona (ari-tczew)]

Udienz, is there anything to sponsor?

[Mahyuddin Susanto (udienz)]

Artur, not yet. may you look at my debdiff?

[Bhavani Shankar (bhavi)]

Hello Mahyuddin,

It seems that the matchbox-window-manager FTBFS is fixed in debian quite some time ago according to:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=555591

Could you please look at merging/syncing the package as required asap

Regards and Thanks

Fixed in 7ubuntu1
