ogre-1.8 (1.8.0+dfsg1-2) unstable; urgency=low
* Remove Samples altogether, since almost all of them contain or depend on
non-free items (fonts and some media objects, see Debian and upstream bug
report).
After contacting upstream, they are not inclined to resolve the issue soon
(read: it will take years and several major releases, if it happens at all).
All of them are removed and there will be no attempt to track which ones are
DFSG-compliant; it is quite a burden (thus decreasing the time that can be
devoted to maintain the package in good shape, follow closely upstream
updates, etc), and this is even more complicated with different sets of
samples in every release (as it is the case now, with v1.7 and v1.8 in the
Debian archive).
This change encompasses the following actions/changes:
- Repack the source (simply removing all ./Samples/)
- Remove patch change_sample_cfg_path.patch, of no use now
- Remove corresponding sample packages from debian/control
- Remove files debian/*samples*.install
- Closes: #684219 ("ogre contains non-free font from larabie collection")
* Force Build-Depends and Depends of libogre-dev on version 1.49 (this
particular one since it is the default for Wheezy). OGRE exposes internal
source code from boost which is sometimes incompatible between versions and
might produce deadlocks with applications using/linking incompatible
versions of boost. The problem is probably not fixed completely, but this
is an attempt to mitigate it (see the bug report for the discussion).
Thanks Paul D Turner for the toughtful report and Steve M. Robbins for
feedback. (Closes: #688582).
* Patches:
- Add remove-alignment-hack.patch to drop obsolete stack alignment hack that
breaks with gcc-4.7 (removed in upstream 1.8.1). Thanks Julian Taylor and
Kai Mast for the report and patch. (Closes: #687013).
