[DRE-maint] Bug#790537: diaspora-common: fails to install: ERROR: role "diaspora" does not exist

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: diaspora-common
Version: 0.5.0.1+debian1
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts

Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package failed to install. As
per definition of the release team this makes the package too buggy for
a release, thus the severity.

>From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):

This seems to be a regression in a dependency. According to my logs I had
a (last) successful test on 2015-06-01, rechecking on 2015-06-25 resulted
in a reproducible failure.


cheers,

Andreas
