With that knowledge, I withdraw the request to put my luajit package into squeeze-backports. If it's removed from wheezy, there is little point in having it backported to squeeze. I don't know what the reasons for the removal are, but whatever they are, I guess they apply to squeeze-backports at least as well as for wheezy. Backporting uwsgi could still be a good thing, but then version 1.2.3+dfsg-2 should be the one. I am assuming that the unfreeze request will go through. It's not that difficult, too: there's a little multiarch related path name issue with openjdk packages. The other thing is that dh_python2 chokes because of symlinks pointing to non-existing targets. (They'll be fine on the target system because they are provided by one of the dependencies.) I'm going ahead with this now. I'll post a link to my final dsc file, in case that you guys think this is interesting for squeeze-backports. Again, thanks very much.
