RFS: fetchmail-6.3.19 backport to Lenny



Hi,

I'm looking for a sponsor for a backport of fetchmail-6.3.19-1 to
Debian Lenny.  The main reason for the backport is to forestall at
least the very first requirement of the upstream fetchmail maintainers
when problems are reported - "upgrade to the latest version" :)

There are two binary packages:
fetchmail  - SSL enabled POP3, APOP, IMAP mail gatherer/forwarder
fetchmailconf - fetchmail configurator

The package is available at mentors.d.n:
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/f/fetchmail/fetchmail_6.3.19-1~bpo50+1.dsc

I first sent this as a request for review to the pkg-fetchmail alioth
list (the maintainers of the Debian fetchmail package) -
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-fetchmail-maint/2011-April/004071.html
There were no concerns or objections raised, and Nico Golde seems to
approve of the idea, as expressed in his reply -
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-fetchmail-maint/2011-May/004075.html

I would be glad if someone could find a couple of minutes to review
the trivial changes needed for the backport (just roll back the
dh_python2 transition) and upload this package for me.

G'luck,
Peter
