Hi,

New upstream version was released, so I made a new Debian package of it.

I'm again looking for a sponsor for it.

It is lintian clean and builds with cowbuilder.

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/cppcheck
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable
main contrib non-free
- dget
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/cppcheck/cppcheck_1.43-1.dsc


Now, a few things worth mentioning:
- This version is not compatible with previous version, because: 
--enable=possibleError prints out error message with this version 
(possibleError feature is complitely disabled in this version, so to fix 
it one should just remove that option if it is used)
- Man page (which comes from upstream) is not up-to-date considering the 
above change (I filed a ticket about it to upstream and will probably 
fix it myself for the next release).

Should this version still be uploaded?
