Bug#1098459: vdr: VDR not starting due to outdated plugins

[Matthias Gies]

Package: vdr
Version: 2.6.9-3
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

it seems like the VDR package was solely updated without updating the plugins also. I am especially dependant on the SATIP plugin.

In the following log it is visible that vdr expects all plugins with same version number as VDR itself, but plugin packages in trixie are all older.
