[Bug 275688] Re: Please sync fpc 2.2.2-3 (universe) with patch from bug #260464

[James Westby]

Hi,

fpc hasn't been synced yet as there are Ubuntu modifications to
the current package. The person that did those modifications stated
that it is safe to sync the package as Debian has a fixed version, so we
can go ahead and sync.

For an SRU it needs someone to investigate the status on each affected
release and document what is needed for each and come up with a plan.

Thanks,

James

+ == Original report:
+ 
  Binary package hint: fpc
  
  I am trying to package WinFF (bug #172804) but it fails to build on
  Intrepid, but it is already in the NEW queue for Debian for quite some
  time. The new versions of fpc and lazarus solve the build problem (see
  my PPA [1], at the moment only  for amd64, but that looks to me like a
  PPA bug). Lazarus can only be synced when the new build of fpc is
  available in the archive. Fpc needs the same patch as discussed in bug
  #260464.
