[mlmmj] address duplication in subscribers list

Hi,

I have a lot of duplicates in my subscribers addresses.
I use mlmmj-sub to subscribe addresses, and it seems that this command 
don't check if the address already exists before subscribing it !
Is it a bug or a missing fonctionnality ?

Marc

Hi Marc,

I had the same issue and it was due to the fact I was using an old version.

I'm using version 1.2.18 that is the last stable debian package, and is 
not a so old version !

If you read the discussion I had the same problem and I had to use apt
pinning to upgrade to a latest version where this bug is fixed.

using the latest package from $os-vendor does not mean using the  
current version:

Thanks for this precision !

I was just pointing out that the penultimate revision of the last 
version can't seriously be considered as an "old" version.

That depends on your point of view.  Your report was "hey this is broken",
but it's been fixed "upstream" more than a year ago and Debian *Oldstable*
(Wheezy) version doesn't have the fix.  From that point of view, Debian
Oldstable's version is old.  Debian Stable (Jessie), Testing (Stretch) and
Unstable (Sid) all have mlmmj 1.2.8.1-1 which should have the fix.

It is possible to fix in Debian Stable and Oldstable, but the rules for
those releases is that they can only get *important* fixes, not new
versions... so to fix this someone would need to come up with the minimal
patch required to fix the bug and submit it to a bug report.  Then the
maintainer could upload that fix as "mlmmj-1.2.8-1+deb8u1" to a
pending-proposed-updates repository, which will then get incorporated into
the distribution on the next "point release" of that distribution.  (Usually
every 3 months or so.)  I don't think this particular bug would be
considered worth going through all this.

The easiest way around all this would be to backport the package for Wheezy
and put it into an external repository.  I just did this (because I'm
likewise running mlmmj on Wheezy), so if you want it, it's available here:

   http://debian-packages.coredump.us

direct link if you just want the .deb files than to add the repo:

   http://debian-packages.coredump.us/debian/pool/main/m/mlmmj/
