Re: Bug#899785: exe-thumbnailer: Invalid maintainer address pkg-wine-party@lists.alioth.debian.org
Control: tags 899785 + pending
Hello,
This will be fixed in the next release (0.10.0-3), which is currently
staged in Salsa at https://salsa.debian.org/jlu-guest/exe-thumbnailer
(I've pinged my usual sponsor about it already)
Best,
James
