Upstream have fixed the SGPropertyNode::fireValueChanged crash, but are
now seeing several other crashes: one looks like a known openscenegraph
bug (fixed in upstream openscenegraph but not Debian openscenegraph),
another looks like potentially hard-to-trace memory corruption.
Furthermore, it now appears that the "no transitions at this time" rule
applies even to transitions within a single maintainer's packages
(https://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2014/10/msg00086.html), so we
may not now be allowed to upload 3.2 even if it does get into a state
where we'd want to.
Hence, I suggest another upload *of 3.0* with the following (already
existing) patches:
simgear (do this first):
#761203 fix endianness on mipsel, add arm64
#763493 change build dependency to libjpeg-dev (libjpeg-turbo transition)
flightgear:
#763470 change build dependency to libjpeg-dev (libjpeg-turbo transition)
change simgear dependency to >=3.0.0-5~ (as the fix for #761203 is in
the headers; the ~ is to allow backports)
fgrun:
#757178 fix environment variable export
I hope to look at #750939 (hang) and LP#1301492 (crash) before the
freeze, but given that we need to upload something soon for the
libjpeg-turbo transition anyway, we may as well fix everything we
currently can in that upload.
