[Bug 1716117] [NEW] pupnp-1.8 1.8.1 should not be released with artful

[James Cowgill]

Public bug reported:

When pupnp-1.8 was originally released, upstream changed many parts of
the API (such as library names, include directories and other things).
In 1.8.2, upstream reverted some of these changes after a number of
downstream projects asked for it, thus changing all the library names
and include paths again.

Given that the API currently shipped in artful is already dead and I
don't want to encourage anyone to use it by shipping it in a
distribution, please can either 1.8.2 be synced from Debian, or can
pupnp-1.8 be removed from artful. AFAIK, there are no reverse
dependencies.

** Affects: pupnp-1.8 (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Summary changed:

- pupnp-1.8 1.8.1 should not be release with artful
+ pupnp-1.8 1.8.1 should not be released with artful
