That is not exactly true. The Debian way to do things is to keep stable stable..:-). So, we generally fix release critical and "important-enough" bugs in stable. Most teams even only fix release critical bugs. When it comes at samba, we already did two updates to lenny packages, fixing 4 bugs that were judged as important. That's why, in the case of this very bug, we need to figure out its impact on users, to decide whether we fix it or not... What lead to my remark is seeing the quite high number of bugs that are reported while their reporters know they're fixed in pos-3.2.5 releases... > > > > If that bug is really severity normal, I don't really see enough > > reasons to tag it for lenny. > > It's fine for me not to fix it.

Sometime we mumble a little because we don't like too many bug reports at the same time, but that's fine..:-)
