[Bug 519713] [NEW] package outdated

[Andreas Jellinghaus]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: openct

the current openct package is old and totaly broken, as ubuntu moved away from
hal, but didn't update openct package, which depends on hal (well "Recommends",
as serial readers don't need hal, but USB readers do).

so please update the package before lucid is released/frozen/etc.

the issue: the debian package 0.6.19-1 is broken too, wasn't updated for hal either.
Two choices:
a) pull in my debianized openct from http://www.opensc-project.org/debian/ 
openct 0.6.19-0 package, which was tested on ubuntu and has all the build fixes
and works fine.
b) take a look at debian bug report system, collect all the patches I posted to various
bugs, apply them and build a package from that.
c) lets hope the debian maintainer will do b) soon, so pull in the next 0.6.19-2 package,
once he has done that.

would be real nice to have this package working in ubuntu.
