Control: affects -1 + src:gimp-help
This is a pre-upload request to unblock package gimp-help.
[ Reason ]
The GIMP manual has been stale for many years. The current version
in the archive was released as a "test release" in 2020, but it was
incomplete and didn't even cover all the new functionality in the
GIMP 2.10 branch which was shipped in Debian buster.
A few weeks ago, the GIMP maintainers finally released an updated
version, which matches the current GIMP functionality and is translated
to a number of extra languages.
I'm asking for a pre-approval of this documentation-only source package.
If approved, I would update this bug with the relevant parts of the
diff, seek a final ack, and upload within the next week.
I also plan to do an experimental upload first, in order to see the
results.
[ Impact ]
Shipped documentation will be outdated.
[ Tests ]
There is no code involved, just a build system and documentation data.
[ Risks ]
The risk is low, as this is a documentation-only package, and its
current state is pretty poor.
[ Checklist ]
[ ] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
[ ] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[ ] attach debdiff against the package in testing
