exception for package: abiword



Hello Release Team,

There are ugly crash bugs in current abiword (2.8.2) that have been
dealt with in later releases.

I'm proposing an an exception to see that that the latest version is
included in squeeze. The katest abiword has now been uploaded to the FTP
archive's queue (2010-10-28; delayed/2).

first. This appears to be done according to
