Unfortunatly this is quite long for a frozen package... (I'm not a release 
team member...)

Unfortunatly this upload (specifically the fix for #479698) is also needed so 
that a fixed version of svk can be uploaded. Currently svk is not in Lenny 
(and Debian Edu relies on it...)

So basically I'm asking for a comment from the release team on this...
