[Pkg-ayatana-devel] Bug#1070246: libayatana-appindicator version of Debian package does not match the upstream version

[Carlos Alberto Lopez Perez]

Source: libayatana-appindicator
Severity: serious
Version: 0.5.92-1
Version: 0.5.93-1


The package of libayatana-appindicator on Debian is not building from the
right orig tarball as indicated on the package version.

Both package versions on Debian 12 and testing (versions 0.5.92-1 and 0.5.93-1)
are actually version 0.5.90 of upstream.

$ apt-cache policy libayatana-appindicator3-1
libayatana-appindicator3-1:
   Installed: 0.5.92-1
   Candidate: 0.5.92-1
   Version table:
  *** 0.5.92-1 500
         500 http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm/main amd64 Packages
         100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

$ zcat /usr/share/doc/libayatana-appindicator3-1/changelog.gz|head
Overview of changes in libayatana-appindicator 0.5.90

   - Mono bindings: Change namespace from ayatana-appindicator-sharp3
     to ayatana-appindicator3-sharp (and similar).
   - Port to CMake.
   - Default to GTK+-3.0 as default build flavour.
   - Add Travis CI configuration.
   - Add --keep-env option to dbus-test-runner calls. Allows propagating
     e.g. a build HOME into the DBus test environment.


See how on the upstream changelog file it says version "0.5.90"

I have triple checked this by comparing the orig.tar.gz tarball from the Debian
packages VS the ones at https://github.com/AyatanaIndicators/libayatana-appindicator/tags

And the version shipped on Debian (both for 0.5.92-1 and 0.5.93-1) is actually the upstream 0.5.90 version

Please fix this

Thanks
