We have to watch any ABI bumps, though. But they shouldn't happen, given that it doesn't include libs from BIND. ;-) > I've refreshed the packages and added two changes that I think are > important for proper support for the squeeze lifetime: adding > security.debian.org to the mirrors list and not disabling secure APT to > download the packages.

It has a popcon of 0, and I'm pretty sure that nobody actually tested its operation, not even the maintainers. I wonder if we should remove any traces of ia64 in the ia32* stuff instead. > Depending on how long it will take until the actual squeeze release I may > come round once again if there are more changes that warrant another > upload.
