We should probably go with the patch in the bugreport, it seems to work
nicely and I haven't seen any objections to it on linux-autofs.

Isn't this just "cvs init"?

This has at least been improved somewhat in 1.6.10, I'll try to fix it
once and for all in 1.6.12.

This is a residue of a bug in another package which violated policy by
using a capital in the packagename. I wonder if I could get away with
simply lowercasing the package-names when reading the available-file..

And this is release-critical because?

I can't reproduce this.

Sounds like a trivial fix..

Is this release-critical? Not sure. It's only a recompile btw.

Can we drop this package and tell people to use nmh instead? I've been
thinking of releasing a security advisory to that effect..

We seem to have a history of release-critical bugs for smail until just
