Yes, I do, for the same reason I've already said in this bug report. Nobody talked to me about whether this package was ready for a m-a transition before creating this mess - or I'd have told them the same thing. Please wait until we have a stable release out. Right now, it's more important that developers be able to backport updates to it trivially, than for people to be able to run non-free stuff in sid. If you want stable m-a, use stable. Or use a chroot. This will be fixed once we have a formal stable release version out. Ron -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
