maxima 'serious' bug fix missed freeze
Greetings! I uploaded a fix for 591862 together with a minor upstream
point release that just missed the freeze. Would it be possible to
permit the fixed version in unstable to migrate, or should a patch to
the testing version be prepared? In case of the latter, I cannot
upload such to unstable due to the version number mismatch, yet
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2010/09/msg00000.html
seems to instruct thus.
I would greatly appreciate letting the unstable version migrate if
possible. This is a leaf package, and a notable bug upstream has been
fixed as well.
Take care,
