[Bug 1448823] [NEW] Please backport swig 3.0.2-1ubuntu1 (universe) from utopic

[Thomas Ward]

Public bug reported:

Please backport swig 3.0.2-1ubuntu1 (universe) from utopic to trusty.

Reason for the backport:
========================
Prerequisite for Bug #1444943 against ZNC (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/znc/+bug/1444943)

The swig3.0 libraries are required for more recent versions of ZNC.  ZNC
1.6 has a build-dep on swig3.0, and as swig3.0 is not in Trusty it
should be backported.

Test builds will be available in
https://launchpad.net/~teward/+archive/ubuntu/backport-buildtests.  Note
that I already have swig3.0 backports available in
https://launchpad.net/~teward/+archive/ubuntu/swig3.0 and there are no
fail to build errors on Trusty, or even Precise.

NOTE: If the previous issue (pre-2013) of backports not being able to
build-dep on other backports is not yet resolved, then REJECT this
backport request with that reasoning.


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.

You can test-build the backport in your PPA with backportpackage:
$ backportpackage -u ppa:<lp username>/<ppa name> -s utopic -d trusty swig

* trusty:
[X] Package builds without modification
[ ] swig3.0 installs cleanly - Runtime Test Not Applicable: swig3.0 is an interface that generates scripting interfaces to C/C++ code. Testing would require building with swig3.0 available for a given application that is not swig3.0.  The ZNC 1.6 packaging from Vivid is an example of something we could build test this with, however.
[ ] swig3.0-doc installs cleanly - Runtime Test Not Applicable: This is the HTML documentation and is not an executable.
[ ] swig3.0-examples installs cleanly - Runtime Test Not Applicable: This is just examples of applications for SWIG and is not an executable.

No reverse dependencies
