2013-07-09 02:12:18 Launchpad Janitor ibus-cangjie (Ubuntu): status In Progress Fix Released
2013-07-09 02:38:44 Howard Chan description According to the Ubuntu Packaging Guide "Basic Overview of the debian/ directory" Section 2 "The control file" (http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/debian-dir-overview.html#the-control-file) it says: Note that in Ubuntu, we set the Maintainer field to a general address because anyone can change any package (this differs from Debian where changing packages is usually restricted to an individual or a team). Packages in Ubuntu should generally have the Maintainer field set to Ubuntu Developers <ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com>. If the Maintainer field is modified, the old value should be saved in the XSBC-Original-Maintainer field. This can be done automatically with the update-maintainer script available in the ubuntu-dev-tools package. For further information, see the Debian Maintainer Field spec on the Ubuntu wiki. However in ibus-cangjie, pycangjie and libcangjie the Maintainer Field is set to "Anthony Wong" <anthony.wong@ubuntu.com>, which doesn't comply with the rules. Please fix this trivial bug.

Please fix this trivial bug. == SRU request == [Impact] This is just to fix a Debian packaging bug. The maintainer should be Ubuntu Developers instead of Anthony Wong. [Test Case] No method for users to test the bug except to visit the Launchpad pages. [Regression Potential] This bug itself will not regress at all (since it's a simple maintainer packaging fix) but bug fixes accompanying this SRU may introduce regressions. [Other Info] Q: What bug fixes will this SRU come along with? A: LP: #1189083 (adding a patch to enable Preferences) and LP: #1189085 (Adding a hard dependency on gir1.2-ibus-1.0) will be included in this SRU.
