Question about triaging tulip's bug #230368

[Caroline Ford]

Generally we don't assign packages to ourselves unles we are a developer.

I used http://packages.ubuntu.com to look at tulip. The version in
jaunty is 3.0.0~B6-2.1. It depends on qt4 (and some qt3 compatibility
lib). It could be that it just can't run under qt4.

Using packages.ubuntu.com karmic has 3.0.0~B6-2.1-2. The changelog
says that it fixed two debian bugs:

tulip (3.1.2-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fixed install target to cope with arch-dep-only builds (Closes:
    #526968).
  * Rename all manpages to .3tlp to avoid conflicting with various other
    pacakges (Closes: #526951).

Ooh! Are these bugs our bug?

The equivalent for Debian is http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages.

I search for tulip in Debian unstable. The latest in Debian testing
and unstable is 3.1.2-2.

Debian bug #526968 is a MIPS bug about building and doesn't affect us.
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=526968
Debian bug #526951 is about installing docs
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=526951

Doesn't look like Debian have fixed our bug (but they don't have it either?).

One thing is puzzling me. If I look at Karmic packages.ubuntu.com
clearly says tulip (3.0.0~B6-2.1) but the source is the later 2.1.2-2.
I wonder whether the later version has failed to build..
