[Bug 743515] Re: FFe: please upload ufraw 0.18-1 from debian

[Chris Halse Rogers]

This looks reasonable to me, although we're a long way into the freeze.
Subscribing ubuntu-release to get their take on the FFe.

Packaging wise the sync looks correct.  It builds, runs, and the only
Ubuntu diff we have is a couple of rebuilds, so a sync is appropriate.

Title:
  FFe: please upload ufraw 0.18-1 from debian

Status in “ufraw” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ufraw

  ufraw in Ubuntu 11.04 Natty is version 0.16, released 1.5 years ago,
  and lacks urgent support for newer cameras and crucial features, such
  as lensfun correction.

  The updated lensfun package in is now Ubuntu 11.04 and the ufraw-0.18
  package has been available in Debian for a while, so this is now
  possible.

  The impact of not rebuilding and uploading is simply the significant
  lack of camera support, thus user game-over scenario. The risks of
  uploading the newer version are minimal, since there are no
  dependencies on ufraw; the last release just updated camera support,
  so is low-risk.

  I can confirm that rebuilding from the updated package source [1],
  installing and usage are all as expected and requires no other system
  changes.
