[Bug 2046007] Re: Please sync signond from Debian

[Aaron Rainbolt]

Will fix the symbols, thanks.

As for fixes coming from Debian, there are a load of different opinions
about this. My opinion is to ensure a delta is Lintian clean, and
forward a bug to Debian if an issue is serious enough to make me
uncomfortable asking for a sync, or easy to forward. Your opinion is to
fix things in Debian first and sync thereafter it appears. Erich
Eickmeyer's opinion is to fix Lintian issues in Ubuntu first if it's
easy to do so, then go to Debian with the fix. There's no one way of
doing this that makes every packager 100% happy, and even now I'm
following Eickmeyer's packaging style and not my own. If we could for
now just live with the slightly bigger Ubuntu delta, I can forward it to
Debian, and then when/if it's accepted, I can sync it myself once I'm a
MOTU.

Title:
  Please sync signond from Debian

Status in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Filing this against Ubuntu directly since the signond package
  currently does not exist in Ubuntu.

  signond in Debian replaces the signon package in Ubuntu. It builds
  properly against Noble with some symbols file tweaks. It upgrades
  properly (I can install the original signon binary packages in Ubuntu,
  then upgrade them to the newer version without errors).

  A debdiff from the Debian version is attached.
