Comment 6 for bug 260751

I contacted the debian packagers and they already committed the changes to svn:

http://svn.debian.org/viewsvn/pkg-java/trunk/java-gnome/

I'm not too familiar with the debian release process, but from my understanding it should eventually be uploaded. Is that right?

Regarding the pango patch: I just checked again, and all 3 declarations the patch removes are commented out in 4.0.9: "get_shape_engine_type" in src/defs/PangoFontMap.defs and "pango_context_new" and "add_fong_map" in src/defs/PangoContext.defs. I didn't know that I should have just removed the patch from debian/patches/series and keep the patch itself in place. Is that the usual way of handling obsolete patches? I'm just a beginner at this, always glad to learn something new.

I guess the other issues relate to Alessandro's patch (which I only discovered after I did my own version).
