</span>I'm not sure how to obtain your "little fix" from those links.  I assume<br>
you're just adding a changelog entry or something.  I find it's still<br>
easier to have a backports branch I can merge master into.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Sorry, I probably wasn't clear. With "little fix" I meant the fix from this bug (dropping the build-dependency on gnupg1). So to be clear the flycheck source package version 30-2 now builds *unmodified* on Ubuntu/16.04, so there's no additional change needed. As for the changelog entry, that's added automatically at package build time by  Launchpad's recipes system [0], so there's no need to check it in revision control.</div><div><br></div><div>Hope that clears up your concerns, if not, lemme know.</div><div><br></div><div>Free</div><div><br></div><div>[0] <a href="https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/SourceBuilds/Recipes">https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/SourceBuilds/Recipes</a></div></div></div></div>
