Please allow gettext 0.15-3 in testing



Hello.

Release 0.15-2 has been more than 60 days in unstable. It initially
made a number of packages to FTBFS, so a dummy bug (#385235) was
filed to track them. All affected packages have been fixed since then,
and the dummy bug is now closed.

gettext (0.15-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fixed xgettext segfault on certain scheme input (Closes: #384698).
    Patch by Bruno Haible.

gettext (0.15-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release (Closes: #381534).
  * Improved msgmerge error message (Closes: #305703).
  * Recognize Bash process substitution syntax (Closes: #374483).
  * The 'mkinstalldirs' shell script is no longer needed and no longer
    installed by gettextize (Closes: #378239).
  * The manual is now dual-licensed as GNU GPL and GNU FDL with no
    Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Text, and no Back-Cover Texts,
    so we can distribute it in main in either case.
  * Applied patch from Bruno Haible to fix a bug in xgettext.
    See gnu.utils.bug for details.

Then it happened that the bad state of pnet packages made gettext to
be unbuildable, so another release was needed. While we are at it, it
was possible to fix yet another bug in the perl parser:

gettext (0.15-3) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Fixed perl parser by updating x-perl.c from CVS (Closes: #386912).
  * Build C# stuff using mono, not pnet. This fixes a FTBFS bug, as pnet
    is currently uninstallable.

These are the update excuses:

   Generated: 2006.11.10 06:52:55 +0000
     * gettext (0.14.6-1 to 0.15-3)
          + Maintainer: Santiago Vila
          + 6 days old (needed 5 days)
          + Not touching package, as requested by freeze (contact
            debian-release if update is needed)
          + Not considered

Thanks.
