Description Michael Schwendt 2009-07-08 11:31:28 UTC
The package installs an _ancient_ ChangeLog file that is of no use at all, because the last version it comments on is 0.2.0 while alsa-lib is at 1.0.20. The timestamp of the installed file is misleading:


$ stat /usr/share/doc/alsa-lib-1.0.20/ChangeLog |grep 2009
Access: 2009-05-06 09:07:23.000000000 +0200
Modify: 2009-05-06 09:07:23.000000000 +0200
Change: 2009-07-08 13:31:49.662383442 +0200


$ head /usr/share/doc/alsa-lib-1.0.20/ChangeLog 
* update to libtool 1.3.3

0.1.3 -> 0.2.0

* added snd_pcm_loopback_block_mode to PCM loopback interface
* fixups in header files (according to documentation)
* version is now compatible with driver

0.1.2 -> 0.1.3

Comment 1 Michael Schwendt 2009-09-17 16:53:17 UTC
You could have removed fixed this bug with your recent updates for F11.

Comment 2 Bug Zapper 2010-04-27 15:32:36 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 11.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '11'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 11's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:

Comment 3 Bug Zapper 2011-06-02 17:56:54 UTC

Comment 4 Michael Schwendt 2011-06-02 18:10:37 UTC
Originally reported on 2009-07-08, still true.

Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2013-04-03 18:40:40 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle.
Changing version to '19'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.)
