No, I have never got any bug report at all.
I started maintenance from latex-cur 19990601
in about 24 Aug 1999(first in experimental) and
went through 19991201(moved into unstable) and
the current 20000601.
The changes made are all related to packaging methods
(ex. migrating to debhelper).
Best Regards, 2001.6.3
