(The sixth is ttf-beteckna.) Hmmm, that's weird, indeed. I don't remember this being discussed with the respective maintainers. The Fonts Task Force is a very loose team but we still have an unwritten policy: being listed in "Maintainer:" with the "real" maintainer listed in "Uploaders:"....and when this is done, the package being maintained in "our" SVN. Of course, our policy to add people to the team is, as a consequence, very simple: everybody who asks, with a goal, and a dedication to subscribe to the mailing list is welcomed. > I was wondering if the team has a plan to deal with this issue as it > is an RC bug.

We have no plan but maybe someone in the team is OK to prepare an NMU, which I'd be happy to sponsor.
