Bug Description

Binary package hint: joystick

Please merge joystick 20051019-4 (universe) from Debian unstable (main).

joystick (20051019-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * Update short description as suggested by Ben Finney.
  * Set priority to extra to match the override file, as suggested by Joe
    Nahmias.
  * Use debhelper 7, as hinted by Joe Nahmias and the debhelper
    documentation.
  * Remove versioned dependency on cdbs since even oldstable has a new
    enough version.
  * Ship evtest and associated manpage; lineakd diverts them so this package
    need not conflict with lineakd, but it does need to conflict with
    dvb-utils (which will not ship with Lenny). Closes: #475049

  * Improve jscal jitter tolerance. Thanks Johan Walles! Closes: #144768
  * Allow button and axis remapping in jscal. Thanks Dr. László Kaján!
    Closes: #444142

    + add a README.source file explaining the basics of quilt

Hi David,

Part of this change removes a conffile on upgrade. However, this
needs to be tweaked for Ubuntu as the diff has:

+ if dpkg --compare-versions "$2" le "20051019-2"; then
+ rm_conffile joystick "/etc/init.d/joystick"
+ update-rc.d joystick remove
+ fi;;

when the current Ubuntu version is greater than that
so those who have followed Intrepid development won't have
the file removed.

Also, I think this will now need a FFe due to the changes
from

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=444142

and

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=419342

do you agree?

I'm un-subscribing the sponsors, please re-subscribe them when
ready.

Thanks,

James

Yeah, they add capabilities to the program, so im pretty sure we will
need an FFe. I will try to fix this by Wednesday and get a freeze exc
eption filed.
