Closing since it's fixed in the current serie, SRU uploaded now as well and ready for review

[Timo Aaltonen (tjaalton)]

Hello Rico, or anyone else affected,

Accepted vala into eoan-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vala/0.44.11-0ubuntu1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from verification-needed-eoan to verification-done-eoan. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-eoan. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

[Brian Murray (brian-murray)]

The fix for this bug has been awaiting testing feedback in the -proposed repository for eoan for more than 90 days. Please test this fix and update the bug appropriately with the results. In the event that the fix for this bug is still not verified 15 days from now, the package will be removed from the -proposed repository.

[Łukasz Zemczak (sil2100)]

The version of vala in the proposed pocket of Eoan that was purported to fix this bug report has been removed because the bugs that were to be fixed by the upload were not verified in a timely (105 days) fashion.
