Bug Description

Binary package hint: bittornado

Please sync bittornado and bittornado-gui (0.3.18-4) from Debian unstable (main) as they contain important bug fixes for Gutsy.

The previous changelog for Ubuntu was:

bittornado (0.3.18-3ubuntu1) gutsy; urgency=low

  * Fixed absolute path and other spec problems directly in
    bittornado's .desktop file in debian/. (Thanks to Thierry Moisan for the fix) (LP: #4587)
  * Modify Maintainer value to match Debian-Maintainer-Field Spec

The ubuntu changes from the old Debian version have been included in the new Debian version, so only a sync is required. The new changelog is:

bittornado (0.3.18-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * 18_fix_launchmany_encrypter.dpatch: fix a bug in the Encrypter
    that dropped all launchmany handled connections (Closes: #422098)
  * Fixed absolute path and other spec problems in .desktop file
    (thanks to Ubuntu)
  * Fixed other .desktop issues from new lintian checks
  * Switch bittornado-gui dependence from Source-Version to source:Version
  * Fix the menu entry to comply with the new menu transition
  * 19_fix_tracker_return_all.dpatch: fix a tracker bug that caused
    all torrents' peers to be returned for every request
  * 20_tracker_cache_minor_fix.dpatch: a minor fix for the new cache
    structure used by the tracker

The main bug fixes that make this sync necessary for gutsy are 18_fix_launchmany_encrypter.dpatch, which fixes a bug that caused the btlaunchmany[curses] applications to drop all incoming connections (very serious), and 19_fix_tracker_return_all.dpatch, which fixes a bug that caused the tracker to return every peer it is aware of to all torrent's (i.e. even return peers that are not downloading the torrent). All fixes were taken from upstream's CVS repository and will be included in the next upstream release. If you need more information please email me.

Thanks,
Cameron
