uncrustify support does not work (version too old?)

[Malte Helmert]

Binary package hint: universalindentgui

When I switch to Uncrustify, enable the live indent preview and toggle any option, I get the following error:

===============================================
Indenter returned with exit code: 1
Indent console output was:
(STDOUT):
(STDERR):/tmp/UniversalIndentGUI-N4Pl7Q/uncrustify.cfg:34 Unknown symbol 'align_var_def_attribute' Parsing: indentinput.cpp as language CPP

Callstring was: uncrustify -f indentinput.cpp -c "/tmp/UniversalIndentGUI-N4Pl7Q/uncrustify.cfg" -o indentoutput.cpp
===============================================

Further investigation reveals that 'align_var_def_attribute' was an option added in uncrustify 0.53 (May 2009), but Lucid ships with uncrustify 0.52. So the version of universalindentgui in Lucid (1.1.0-1) is apparently incompatible with its version of uncrustify. I don't know what minimal uncrustify version number would be required.

Workaround: installing a current version of uncrustify (0.56) locally in a place on a PATH where it will be found before the system uncrustify solves the issue for me.
