Hello:
On my work computer recent move from Jessie to Stretch I noticed a number of
issues. The one that upset me the most was the inability to use kde-telepathy.
A lot of packages were already installed, but there was something missing that
prevented me to use XMPP. I tried then on a computer running sid, I installed
the kde-telepathy meta-package and I could at least add my XMPP account,
something I was unable to do on Stretch.
I discovered binary packages provided by source packages meta-kde-telepathy
or ktp-accounts-kcm weren't available at Stretch. Being the later the one
providing the functionality I came across #826356 (merged with #830404).
Package was dumped from testing late January this year, even the bug was
reported and a fixed proposed by June last year.
Anyway I'm attaching some patches that hopefully improves shape of the
package. Not really a big deal but being a kde-telepathy user I'd like to see
this in either stretch (surely too late) or eventually stretch-backports.
Patches are based on current git[0] HEAD. And I thought the best would be to
release them on behalf of the team, if you disagree, you can apply patch 1/3,
amend it and then rebase 2 and 3.
I don't have permission to push on that repository, but if you think this
deserves it I can follow instructions in that regard. I rebuild packages with
this changes, installed and testing kde-telepathy these days yet I admit I
haven't built it in a clean environment, ie: built on my everyday running
Stretch.
Sidenote: debian/15.08.3-2 tag is missing in the repo [0]
