(Of course that was in october, and we (and our users) may get impatient, but the solution to that should be helping with the release, not making it harder...) If you don't expect users to go through the trouble to get the package from experimental to get this bug fixed, I'd just wait until after the release. But there's no need to wait with fixing, of course. :-) Thanks, Bas [1] http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2008/10/msg00000.html -- I encourage people to send encrypted e-mail (see http://www.gnupg.org).
