Bug Description

Binary package hint: libmail-box-perl

This was due to https://bugs.launchpad.net/soyuz/+bug/178536

Now that it's fixed, a rebuild SRU ought to fix both Feisty/Gutsy. If approved, I'll prepare SRU packages and upload.

   1. A statement explaining the impact of the bug on users and justification for backporting the fix to the stable release:

Package is FTBFS, so it doesn't work.

   2. An explanation of how the bug has been addressed in the development branch, including the relevant version numbers of packages modified in order to implement the fix; generally, SRUs will not be accepted if the bug has not been fixed in the development branch.

An sbuild bug in malone got fixed so it'll actually build now.

   3. A patch applicable to the stable version of the package.

It's just a rebuild.

   4. "TEST CASE:" Look in LP, see the package FTBFS in Feisty/Gutsy. If it's not, the fix worked.
   5. A discussion of the regression potential of the patch and how users could get inadvertedly effected.

None.

Tested both the gutsy and feisty versions using chewmail.

Archived an mbox with both the current feisty/gutsy binary and both the proposed ones. Inspected the resulting mbox files and they were valid mbox for both the current and both new packages.

I've verified that the new libmail-box-perl from feisty-proposed works the same as the version from feisty, also by using chewmail.
