[Bug 2066466] Re: Sync swig 4.2.1-1 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)

[Sudip Mukherjee]

** Description changed:

  Please sync swig 4.2.1-1 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)
  
  Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped:
-   * d/p/fix-subversion-build-with-ruby3.2.patch: backport upstream patch to
-     fix subversion FTBFS.
- 
+   * d/p/fix-subversion-build-with-ruby3.2.patch: backport upstream patch to
+     fix subversion FTBFS.
  
  The backported upstream patch in the Ubuntu delta is part of the upstream
  v4.2.1 release which is the new Debian package. But when I tried to verify
  that the patch is indeed present in the Debian package/upstream I was little
  confused as I could not find some of the changes.
  On further looking I found that the backported patch introduced a regression
  and so upstream has made further changes to it via https://github.com/swig/swig/commit/84a2c45d66f0334f8fe67077311383af11a2d5c8
  
+ I have built in a ppa and the builds can be seen at
+ https://launchpad.net/~sudipmuk/+archive/ubuntu/test-ppa/+packages
