The buildds are fine, and better to upload it in order to not waste
translator time. (Translators generally track unstable not testing, so they
get the benefit of this upload even if the package isn't accepted into

I don't remember seeing this in the diff I looked at earlier.. The package
in experimental doesn't have a dependency on debconf to support this. What
gives kpilot a dependency on debconf when uploaded to unstable?
