It sounds to me like you've done some decent investigation of the one corner case of the unit tests which failed, and even that failure doesn't sound terrible. If it's possible to document the test failure in a bug report to the associated python package for squeeze, that would be a nice thing to do (maybe one of the python maintainers could sort out the issue; and if it's a non-invasive fix, it might even be a candidate for a point release).
Do you mean I should report the bug for squeeze that does not have the backported trac 0.12, do you mean I should report the bug for testing, or do you mean something else?
But aside from that, it sounds to me like you've done a fair amount of diligence with the package. If Arthur de Jong is willing to review your backport and upload it to squeeze-backports, i'd say you should go ahead with it. Thanks for your work on trac and on squeeze-backports!
No problem. Rather, it's me having to thank you guys for providing official backports and all the work that comes with it so we seamlessly integrate important upgrades into Debian stable releases!
Bests, Manuel
