Re: Upgrade glitches

[mdanish@andrew.cmu.edu]

I still haven't heard from the lynx maintainer despite emailing him several
times and NMUing twice (fixing other problems).  The lynx-ssl maintainer
is active, however, but he tends to incorporate changes made in lynx
into his own source package.

Perhaps someone should see about taking care of lynx; I would but I don't
have the time that the package needs (looking at the list of bugs...).
