Thing is, we as dput authors would be perfectly fine to backport dput-ng to Squeeze. It's not a big problem from our perspective. On the other hand it is a problem to comply with the Debian Backports policy, which essentially require that a backport is not newer than the version in Testing. Now, as we are in a freeze there won't be dput-ng in Testing anytime soon. We may be able to provide an out-of-tree backport on a private repository, but I don't see many chances to get it into Squeeze. We may, however, surely provide a backport for Wheezy once it is released. -- with kind regards, Arno Töll IRC: daemonkeeper on Freenode/OFTC GnuPG Key-ID: 0x9D80F36D
