Would it be possible to see this fix in a stable update? you should open an RC bug on the adequate version, with that fix, tag it patch, contact the maintainer see if he can do a stable update, or else propose to do it as an NMU into tpu. but this is definitely RC, as it renders the package useless on an architecture. -- ·O· Pierre Habouzit ··O madcoder@debian.org OOO http://www.madism.org
