<p>Hi Folks, I recently uploaded my app, tomboy-ng, to mentors. I
tested the build process on Testing before doing so and all was
well. However, seems that the Debian Build Machines are running
Unstable, not Testing.</p>
<p>Now, Testing has fp-compiler-3.2.2 (3.2.2+dfsg-15) and Unstable
has fp-compiler-3.2.2 (3.2.2+dfsg-17)</p>
<p>-17 seems to have removed the dependencies on libcairo and
libpango. And, you guessed it, my build assumes that FPC bring in
both. Now, I agree that FPC probably does not need them but
Lazarus does, I cannot imagine a GUI app in Lazarus that does not
need one or the other. But seems the dependency was not moved to
Lazarus.</p>
<p>While I have added those dependencies directly to my app (Build),
I cannot test its effectiveness until -17 makes it into Testing
and the Package Tracking tools don't tell me how long -17 has been
in unstable. <br>
</p>
<p>Can you please advise me when -17 is likely to make it into
Testing ? If its not soon, I'll have to build an unstable based
vm to test with. I am reluctant to upload again, and annoy my
mentor without a meaningful test. And Debian now seems to frown on
pulling individual packages between unstable and Testing.<br>
</p>
<p>Related - are you sure libcairo and libpango should not be
Lazarus dependencies ?</p>
<p>Thanks for your help.</p>
