yes certainly.  about the time i noticed 0.9.3 was coming out, i smacked
myself for not realizing thing sooner... i just don't see any reason to
fix it before fixing alot of other stuff and releasing it for 0.9.3 :-)

you can file the bug... i'll close it with the changelog for 0.11.4-1 :>

yes, but it will also be nice when mozilla gets updated it for it to not
be put on hold because of dependancy problems with galeon :)

btw, i want to get around to checking whether skipstone has the correct
dependancies and filing a bug if not, but i'm taking my time so if
anyone's interested, methinks the correct deps for the current package
would be build-depends: mozilla-dev (>= 2:0.9.1-4), mozilla-dev (<<
0.9.2) and depends: mozilla-browser (>= 2:0.9.1-r), mozilla-browser (<<
0.9.2)

galeon also depends on mozilla-mailnews (something which i also need to
add to the next upload), but i'm not sure skipstone does.
