ffe: Sync fgfs-base 2.0.0-1 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)

[Stefan Ebner]

Please sync fgfs-base 2.0.0-1 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)

Explanation of FeatureFreeze exception:
This is required to be able to install flightgear 2.0. The package builds fine and installs fine.

Changelog entries since current natty version 1.9.0-1:

fgfs-base (2.0.0-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release.
  * Made the pkg-fgfs-crew mailing list the official maintainer of the
    fgfs-base package, and myself a mere uploader.
  * Split aircraft models into a separate fgfs-aircraft-base package,
    and object models into a separate fgfs-models-base package.
    This reduces the size of the fgfs-base package, and facilitates
    aircraft and scenery updates between FlightGear releases.
    Closes: #534839.

Please don't sync this for now!
I have to fix various FTBFS for flightgear.

[Fabrice Coutadeur (fabricesp)]

Hi,

Flightgear 2.0.0 builds fine, and as simgear 2.0.0 has been uploaded, all the 2.0.0 packages should be synced too. What is the status of fgfs-base?

Thanks,
Fabrice

This should be synced now since flightgear 2.0 was synced and cannot be installed because fgfs is still at 1.9.

Why do we need this update before release?

[Fabrice Coutadeur (fabricesp)]

Hi,

sorry: I subscribed ubuntu-release before having updated the description.
Without this update, the installation of flightgear fails:
apt-get install flightgear
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 flightgear : Depends: fgfs-base (>= 2.0.0) but it is not going to be installed
              Recommends: fgfs-aircraft-base (>= 2.0.0) but it is not installable
              Recommends: fgfs-models-base (>= 2.0.0) but it is not installable
E: Broken packages

Approved. Please go ahead.
