Looks like it doesn't make sense to keep it in unstable (more to say, in testing) anymore... Maybe it's better to move this package into experimental, // I mean, upload 0.9.9.1 into experimental, // and then remove 0.9.9 from unstable & testing to preserve it for the future better times? :) ---- Best wishes, Bob
