Bug#639691: updating build-deps for nfs-utils to ease backporting to squeeze

August 30th, 2011 - 12:30 am ET by Daniel Kahn Gillmor | Report spam
This is an OpenPGP/MIME signed message (RFC 2440 and 3156)

I concur with Sean Finney that nfs-utils should Build-Depend on
libnfsidmap-dev >= 0.24 to ease backporting.

I'm hoping to prepare nfs-utils 1.2.4 as a backport for squeeze, and
it'd be nice to modify the source package as minimally as possible.

I just got the thumbs-up from anibal to backport libnfsidmap-dev 0.24 to
squeeze-backports; i've done it successfully for myself (it works fine),
so i just need to review the build log to submit it to the backports repo.

Once that's done, i'd like to put nfs-utils in the squeeze-backports
repo as well, unless the regular maintainers want to do it (or have
serious reservations about me doing it myself). Any objections or
concerns i should be aware of?

Regards,

What features do you need/want from 1.2.4?

Cheers
