[Bug 52974] Re: Nagios 2.4

[Martin Meredith]

Current Feisty version uses a ${source:Version} which isn't known in
dapper's dpkg-dev, causing it to error out with

pkg-deb: parse error, in file `debian/nagios2/DEBIAN/control' near line
6 package `nagios2':
 `Depends' field, reference to `nagios2-common': error in version:
version string is empty
dh_builddeb: command returned error code 512


This builds fine changing ${source:Version} and ${binary:Version} to
${Source-Version}, however, this would break binNMUs in debian - so is
not a bug, and also would create unneccesary delta from debian.

I'm being advised against making delta between Ubuntu/Debian just for
backports, and also against making delta between feisty and backports,
so I'm rejecting this.

 status rejected
