Re: Accepted wireshark 1.2.10-2+squeeze1 (source i386)

Hi,

Sorry,  I haven't contacted the Release Team beforehand.
It seemed to me that contacting them beforehand was optional, but I had to
contact them approval after the successful builds.

I'll contact them next time before the first upload.

Originally I planned asking for an unblock request for 1.2.11-1, but
it introduced a
regression so I backported the important fixes from the diff in
1.2.10-2+squeeze1
instead.

To see the bright side, the backported changes get testing in unstable
and Daniel's
part is being tested in Ubuntu.

Cheers,
Balint
