In stable the problem persists, that policyd-weight has a non-functional
ipv6 blacklist enabled that may leed to spuriously rejected mail.

It would just be one modification to fix that bug (e.g. comment out the
non functional blacklist). What is the right way to go here? This Bug is
fixed in my latest uploaded package to unstable.
