Package: yasnippet
Version: 0.12.2-2
Severity: normal

Yasnippet should transition from emacs-goodies-el to elpa-htmlize,
because the latter is more up to date, and also because we are trying
to reduce dependencies on emacs-goodies-el in preparation for it's
removal.  At this point in time there's definitely no rush :-)

I took a stab at it while preparing yasnippet-0.13.0-1, but gave up
because patching yas-doc-helper.el to add (require 'htmlize) didn't
work (file not found error), and I don't yet know a good way to modify
the override in debian/rules to load by library name rather than by
path.  Admittedly, I didn't try using wildcards while loading by path,
but that seems like it would be the easiest way to do this.

Finally it's possible there is a difficult to reproduce bug in
org-export that only manifest during very particular circumstances
involving htmlize.  That was closed as unreproducible upstream, so it
might be a false lead.

Regards,
Nicholas
