[Bug 419363] Re: Please remove jhbuild from the archive

[Stefan Ebner]

This snapshot is really pretty outdated and not useable. 
At this time of the development cycle I'm afraid that we have to remove it.

** Summary changed:

- jhbuild is heavily outdated, update it
+ Please remove jhbuild from the archive

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: jhbuild
  
  The current version of jhbuild is 0.0.svn.r1378-1 in hardy, intrepid,
  jaunty and karmic. The latest revision in SVN is revision 2802, and that
  was four months ago. GNOME doesn't even use SVN anymore.
- 
- A lot of bugs have been fixed since then and obviously a lot of features
- have been added as well. Bug #342861 cannot be solved without upgrading
- to a newer version.
- 
- The latest version in Debian unstable is 0.0.svn.r1378-1 as well, but
- considering the fact that this is an important development tool for
- GNOME and could help a lot with making testing the latest code easier I
- think we should package it on our own. If we want to help and encourage
- GNOME development we should at least provide the right tools.
- 
- As you can see at its Git page -- <http://git.gnome.org/cgit/jhbuild/>
- -- tags are there for 2.27 versions, which means it's going to be
- released with 2.28. We should include this (upcoming) stable version,
- rather than an old development snapshot.
