f-prot-installer needs update in stable
Hi,
some two month ago I requested permission to update f-prot-installer
in stable. Alas, it has never been uploaded, f-prot-installer has been
dysfunctional for quite some time now. Therefore I'd like to repeat my
request. An inter version diff is attached. The actual fix is a one
liner.
I'm still considering moving this package to volatile.d.n, given that
such breakages are likely to continue. However, I'd first like to get
a last fixed version into stable.
Thanks,
Johannes
