Dear Maintainer,

mediathekview tells me with a popup window, that I should update to the newest
version.
The current version is 13.2.1.
The new version advertised by the program is 13.5.0.

Apparently there was also an intermediate version 13.3.0, which may be more
suitable for debian regarding stability, although version 13.5.0 is called
stable by the developers of Mediathekview themselves.

I have checked that no newer version is packaged in debian unstable.

Kind regards

Eike

The upstream developers of mediathekview changed the build system again.
They started with ant, then there was gradle and now it is maven. They
also frequently change build-dependencies which have not been packaged
for Debian yet.

The current version works fine. I suggest to disable the new upstream
version check in the settings menu. If there is more time available I
will package the latest upstream release eventually.

Regards,

Markus

Dear Markus,

thanks for the explanation, sounds tedious to package, thanks for your trouble!
For the workaround: I can find no such setting, can you direct me to it in detail?

Best

Eike

I have just noticed that this setting was removed in 13.2.1. At the
moment the update check cannot be disabled. This should be fixed as well
when a newer version is packaged for Debian.

two+ more years later, current version is 13.8.1, build system is still
maven-based.
