Unblock request for antlr-2.7.7-10

[Jan Dittberner]

Hello release team,

during the last view days some folks worked on the antlr package. A new version
2.7.7-10 of the package has been accepted yesterday. The version in testing is
2.7.7-6 and has 2 RC bugs that get fixed in 2.7.7-10.

Unfortunatelly the debdiff (attached) is quite big as you can see in the
diffstat output at the end of this mail. Most of the changes stem from removing
the antlr/debian directory though.

The changelog between 2.7.7-6 and 2.7.7-10 mentions the following activities:

antlr (2.7.7-10) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Torsten Werner ]
  * Add myself to Uploaders.
  * Convert changes to Charscanner.hpp to a patch file and improve this patch
    for gcc 4.4 thanks to Martin Michlmayr. (Closes: #505366)

  [ Jan Dittberner ]
  * Fix watch file. (Closes: #511862)
  * Create a separate package python-antlr. (Closes: #511306)
  * Add missing build-dependency java-gcj-compat-dev. (Closes: #511849)

  [ Asheesh Laroia ]
  * Fixed cantlr package to depend on libantlr-java-gcj rather than
    nonexistent antlr-gcj (finishing migration started in 2.7.7-8).
    (Closes: #504050)

antlr (2.7.7-9) unstable; urgency=low

  * libantlr-java{,-gcj}: Fix typos in dependencies.

 -- Matthias Klose <doko at debian.org>  Tue, 21 Oct 2008 01:08:32 +0200

antlr (2.7.7-8) unstable; urgency=low

  * Build a libantlr-java package, without dependency on a java runtime.
    Needed to bootstrap gcj without having a java runtime installed.
  * Rename antlr-gcj to libantlr-java-gcj.
  * Explicitely call javac with -source 1.4.

 -- Matthias Klose <doko at debian.org>  Mon, 20 Oct 2008 08:01:58 +0200

antlr (2.7.7-7) unstable; urgency=low

  [Michael Koch]
  * Updated watch file to match only Antlr v2.

  [Matthias Klose]
  * antlr: Depend on default-jre-headless.
  * Don't directly build-depend on gcj.
  * Build a antlr-gcj package, replace cantlr with a shell script to use it.

 -- Matthias Klose <doko at debian.org>  Sun, 12 Oct 2008 21:47:32 +0200

Version 2.7.7-10 introduces a new binary package python-antlr that has the
benefit of not pulling in unnecessary java dependencies for Python code that
needs antlr.py. As far as I can see there is no reverse dependency to antlr in
testing currently so this split will not harm existing packages in testing.

There is one package python-pyexcelerator which has an included antlr.py but
could use antlr.py in the new python-antlr binary package.

I think that 2.7.7-10 is a huge step forward for antlr package's overall
quality and I ask you whether it could be unblocked.
