[Bug 1292728] [NEW] Sync request

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Jackson Doak (noskcaj):

Please sync unixodbc (2.3.1-1) from Debian unstable. I recently (March
2014) had a conversation with UnixODBC's project lead about the QT GUI,
and he responded that he "hadn't worked on it in years", which is true:
the release used in Ubuntu is from 2008...

Dignity aside, there seem to be some non-trivial bug fixes and
functionality changes as well.

unixodbc (2.3.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release.  Closes: #650267.
    - Drop changes to exe/isql.c, exe/odbcinst.c, exe/iusql.c, fixed
      differently upstream.
    - Drop libgtrtst library from libodbc1; this is technically an ABI
      change, but nothing has ever used this library so we're not changing
      the package name.
    - Since the library ABI has not changed in Debian (ever), keep the
      package names the same and provide backwards-compatible symlinks to
      avoid an unnecessary library transition; and update the symbols/shlibs
      to make it clear the old versions of the library don't satisfy these
      dependencies any longer.
  * Bump the build dependency on debhelper to 9.
  * Fix LDFLAGS handling so that we pick up hardening flags properly.
    Closes: #717257.
  * Fix debian/copyright to comply with copyright-format 1.0.
  * Update to Standards-Version 3.9.4.
  * Fix the section of the odbcinst package.  Closes: #663077.
  * Update the odbcinst manpage to document all the current options.
    Closes: #709968

** Affects: unixodbc (Ubuntu)
