** Summary changed:

- [SRU] Please backport ttytter 2.1.0-1 (multiverse) from raring
+ Please backport ttytter 2.1.0-1 (multiverse) from raring

** Description changed:

- [Impact]
+   Please backport ttytter 2.1.0-1 (multiverse) from raring to precise,
+   quantal.
  
-  * No versions of the package prior to 2.1.0 can access Twitter as of
- March 2013 due to the implementation of Twitter API 1.1
+   Reason for the backport:
+   ========================
+   Versions prior to the one packaged in Raring Ringtail cannot access Twitter APIs since March 2013.
  
- [Test Case]
+   Testing:
+   ========
+   Mark off items in the checklist [X] as you test them, but please leave the checklist so that backporters can quickly evaluate the state of testing.
  
-  * Attempt to access Twitter using version packaged in Precise or
- Quantal.  Attempt will fail.
+   You can test-build the backport in your PPA with backportpackage:
+   $ backportpackage -u ppa:skellat/test -s raring -d precise ttytter
+   $ backportpackage -u ppa:skellat/test -s raring -d quantal ttytter
  
- [Regression Potential]
+   * precise:
+   [X] Package builds without modification
+   [ ] ttytter installs cleanly and runs
+   * quantal:
+   [X] Package builds without modification
+   [ ] ttytter installs cleanly and runs
  
-  * The package version bump may adversely impact use of Identica and
- other StatusNet sites.  Upstream noted that as of this version the
- package no longer supports those Twitter-alike sites.
- 
- [Other Info]
-  
-  * The API change required a major re-write which means that grafting the API support onto earlier versions would not be supported by upstream and would create a severely unsupported fork
+   No reverse dependencies
