Mantis 1.1.6 requires phpmailer 1.73

After talking with ScottK on IRC, we feel that the best way to go about handling this bug is to patch mantis to use the version of phpmailer that is in Jaunty. Currently, no patch is available. If one can not be prepared in time for Jaunty release, it should be able to qualify for a SRU. I am subscribing motu-sru to this bug so that they are aware of this issue.

In the meantime, packaging phpmailer 1.73 and uploading it to a PPA should enable you to use mantis in Jaunty.

debdiff attached. I took the necessary changes from the debian bugreport's comment 35 (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=501434#35). It is stated that this works flawlessly for him. A build with the patch included is currently waiting in the queue and will be available shortly via ppa https://edge.launchpad.net/~amoog/+archive/ppa/.

mantis (1.1.6+dfsg-2ubuntu1) jaunty; urgency=low

  * debian/patches
    - update all patches to apply cleanly
    - add 05-fix-phpmailer.patch to fix use with phpmailer 1.73
    (LP: #360809)

The patch looks ok, but the purpose is to make it compatible with
PHPMailer 2.1, not 1.73.

Thanks,

Arghs. Got slightly confused there, modified debdiff attached. Thanks for the hint. It's 2 AM here, I hope this qualifies as an excuse ;-)
