I am curious as to how to handle this situation: shorewall-lite and shorewall6-lite are both stuck from migrating. The excuses look like this: roberto@miami:~$ grep-excuses shorewall-lite shorewall-lite (4.4.11.6-1+squeeze1 to 4.4.17-1) Maintainer: Roberto C. Sanchez 10 days old (needed 10 days) shorewall-lite (source, i386, amd64, armel, ia64, kfreebsd-amd64, kfreebsd-i386, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390, sparc) has new bugs! Updating shorewall-lite introduces new bugs: #610314 Not considered roberto@miami:~$ grep-excuses shorewall6-lite shorewall6-lite (4.4.11.6-1+squeeze1 to 4.4.17-1) Maintainer: Roberto C.

Updating shorewall6-lite introduces new bugs: #610327 Not considered I think that this is because the bug was fixed in sid in version 4.4.16-1 (uploaded on January 15), but the bug was reported against Squeeze version 4.4.11.6-1 on January 17). I uploaded version 4.4.11.6-1+squeeze1 later that same day (on January 17). Of course, since 4.4.16-1 also corrected the problem but the problem had not yet been reported, there was no reason to expect it to be mentioned in the changelog. Do I need to mention it in a future changelog (4.4.18 should be released in a few weeks), or does get solved by manual hinting or some other way? Regards, -Roberto -- Roberto C.
