I guess you'd have to ask debian-release about this; I intended for 4.1.3 to
be the final for sarge (IIRC), but some last-minute fixes in 4.1.4 beta also
made their way through. I would not be opposed to uploading 4.1.4 final (plus
the two existing extra bug fixes) if the release team allows it, though.
debian-release: autofs 4.1.4 is a pure bugfix release (4.1.4 beta is in sarge
now); it fixes several low to medium priority bugs and introduces no new
functionality. If I uploaded 4.1.4 (with patches), would there be a
possibility of getting it accepted into sarge? autofs has, to the best of my
knowledge, no dependencies not in sarge, and no versioned depends in the
archive at all.
