[Bug 1455216] Re: Lensfun version in package is outdated
@ Geert: U can watch Debian PTS¹ on this package. Though the package is
in "experimental" (a.k.a. Squezze) now - given an certain period of
testing in order to avoid incorporating bugs (thats the common
procerede) it will make its way into "unstable -> testing"
Given the fact that any package receiving a higher version-no.² in the
current development-release² it will automatically be merged until the
Debian-freeze timeline.

Title:
Lensfun version in package is outdated
Status in darktable package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in lensfun package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in lensfun package in Debian:
New
Bug description:
Lensfun 0.3.0 and 0.3.1 brought major improvements with them, in
particular the possibility to update the lens database without re-
installing Lensfun or updating the package. This is very often
requested by users. Besides, the lens database has grown heavily over
the last two releases, with more than 200 new lenses. Therefore, I
think it is senseful to put some effort in updating the package to
v0.3.1.
The old Python-based build system was removed from Lensfun. If the
package used it, this would make non-trivial changes necessary.
Moreover, there are some scripts included now that are supposed to go
into /usr/bin, so probably, a new package lensfun-utils or lensfun-
tools becomes necessary, depending on your packaging guidelines.
I'm a dev of Lensfun and willing to help with that. I have only
little -- albeit not none -- experience with Ubuntu packaging.
