I am glad you see what the issue is. The machine is still running 22.6.1 from
Etch. Is is possible that the 22.7.3 version fixed this issue? If so, can
that version be pushed to Etch? If not, when the fix is applied, can that be
pushed to Etch?
BTW, if you can provide test packages on some site, I would be more than happy
to test them.
Thanks,
