Both of those issues were fixed months ago in the 2.0.11 release
currently in the mentors repo, I filed an RFS but nobody came forward. I
also suspect that 643252 is related to the previous sponsor pulling out
all the dbconfig-common work I put into the initial package, what he
uploaded failed to work for me and I have been using a build out of my
own repository. 

The problem is that I'm not a DM, so I need to rely on sponsors. Not all
sponsors respect the integrity of the package and I often see broken
packages uploaded. If I could find a sponsor whom I could work with
(rather than one whom ignores things for months and then gets shirty
when I don't respond quick enough for his liking, and then proceeds to
pull out large parts of debian directory - without consultation -
breaking things in the process) then these things would not be an
issue. 

I also believe that the 2.0.11 build needs to go into wheezy as it meets
with the php 5.4 requirement. Check out the 2.0.11-3 package on debian
mentors or at :
deb http://debian.lusan.id.au/debian unstable main contrib non-free
The repository contains a keyring package as the packages are signed. :)


If you still need a separate 2.0.10 release for wheezy then let me know
and I can do it ... but I'll need a sponsor I can work with. :)

I recently became a co-maintainer for sql-ledger, although working with
alioth and svn-buildpackage was new to me I found Raphael to be far more
tolerant and willing to help/guide than Tony was (no response for six
months after he agreed to sponsor the package and then suddenly when I
take 3 days to respond he has a go at me). I have some long term health
issues that do mean I'm not always able to do things to other peoples
timetables, but I do get them done. The postfix-cluebringer and
sql-ledger packages have also been the first two packages I have had to
build to meed the standards of the Debian project proper, rather than
for personal or company internal use where large lintian overrides (or
simply not using lintian) are viable.

I hope we can work something out :)
