Dear release team, there is a new version of cracklib2 (2.8.12-8) in NEW. It provides a transition path from the python-crack package available in Etch (#499056) in addition to the fixed RC bug (#499013) in 2.8.12-7 (added to unstable yesterday). The package has been improved a lot with minimal code changes (only changed some lines of code in the Python binding to fix the RC bug) since the version 2.8.12-2 which is already in Lenny. I think it would benefit the users if the 2.8.12-8 version would be included in Lenny. Due to the added transitional package python-crack the package has to be pushed to unstable first. Please consider the inclusion into Lenny. I add the changelog since 2.8.12-2 below.
