Hi, (or should I be sending this to -mentors instead?) In the past couple of weeks, I've had two users ask me about dante on Lenny. The dante package was removed from testing almost a year before the release of Lenny, I adopted it a couple of months before the release, but due to various build problems it took a couple of uploads to get it in the right shape for testing migration - by which time it had missed the Lenny release deadline. So, I've taken the version currently in testing, added a one-line changelog entry targetting lenny-backports, and built the package at: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/d/dante/dante_1.1.19.dfsg-3~bpo50+1.dsc Now the above history makes me wonder whether I shouldn't build the package with a -v parameter corresponding to the last version that was in testing before it was removed - or maybe even the last version that was in *any* Debian stable release - that would be etch? That would be about 120 lines of changelog documenting 5 uploaded versions. I could do that if it is required, but it seems a bit weird to me in this particular case. I'd be grateful for any comments, although flying to Brussels tomorrow might slow down my reaction time a bit.
