Well back then I replied with arguments but I never heared anything
about it. It was two complains. First the critical one. Dependency on
non-free stuff in main, and then the dummy stuff. I said ok I'll
fix the non-free stuff but (some of) the dummy packages already exists
so that should be ok. But then I never heared anything. I uploaded
fixed packages and still heared nothing. That is why I have been asking
on public forums over and over to get what's wrong.

Now things is fixed, because now I know that the dummy stuff was
critical (not expressed as such in the mail i got) so it is removed.
I also want the existing -dumy packages to be removed. So I have
filed a bug about it.

Sorry if I'm whining but I have had to do that to get what the
error was. Now I know and things are working fine. :)
