Well, the problem was that this change was not mentioned at all in the commit
log (although, in all fairness, was mentioned in the debian/changelog).

IIRC there is a tool that allows to commit with the appended changes in
debian/changelog, so all you have to do is document properly in the changelog
itself. I think sam is using that, maybe he can help with the name of the 
utility.

Please do. I have a gut feeling this is exactly as I suspect.
When can I expect a result of the test? Is wednesday evening a good deadline[1]?

Well, nothing stops you from improving this, maybe after a heads-up on the list
that you intent to do this clean-up? And if nobody objects, go on with the
change ;-) (/me is taking advantage of your ethusiasm and trying to lure you
into doing some clean-up work :-D )

Note that all memebers of the Debian Games Team should be subscribed to both 
lists:

* [EMAIL PROTECTED] - generic discussions about games, be them
team maintained or not
* pkg-games-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org - our list as a team, here is where
bug reports come, here is where we discuss about our packages.


[1] I already updated my todo list and I expect an answer until then; if not,
I'll either do the test myself or plainly revert that specific change.
