Dear release team, as invited by your latest release update, here is a last follow-up for the EMBOSS package (and to a lesser extent the EMBASSY packages), for which I requested an unblock in August. The version in Sid is the only supported upstream, contains many upstream corrections compared to the version in Squeeze, and allow partial upgrades from Lenny (thank you for having reminded me to support this).
Unfortunately, we are not able to accept them in Squeeze. We are left with emboss only in Squeeze now. Embassy-* packages were removed because they don't work with current Emboss from Squeeze. So, Squeeze's emboss is not supported upstream (as you said) and is left without embassy-* packages. Does it make sense to you to drop emboss from Squeeze too? It looks like the best option we have, imho. Regards, -- Mehdi Dogguy مهدي الدڤي http://dogguy.org/
