[Pkg-phototools-devel] Bug#495874: Bug#495874: hugin: configured to call enfuse, which does not exist

[Cyril Brulebois]

Hi,

putting back the bug in the loop, so my fellow pkg-phototools
comaintainers (which includes enblend people) have a chance to read you.

You said:
> More info on enfuse at http://wiki.panotools.org/Enfuse

Quoting it:
> State of development 
> Enfuse is currently in beta and available with the development version
> of Enblend

So, yes, README.Debian could be improved, but the essential info is
there already.

No, while Hugin/Enblend/Enfuse people haven't released their software.

Some features aren't available, including exposure-related because
enfuse (aka. enblend 3.1) isn't released yet. Snapshots are being
tested, I think, but last time I checked, CVS head has been broken for
days, maybe weeks. So we couldn't really package a snapshot either. I
think upstream reverted the offending patch, as well as people in charge
of packaging it. I guess they might follow-up to that bug with status
update.

Mraw,
KiBi.
