That is unfortunate :-/ > As the critical bug (at least) seems to be not very trivial to > backport, the best is maybe to upload a new vesion. Testing is already in "deep freeze"[1]. I do not expect the release team to accept a new upstream release at this point, they would likely prefer backported patches (only those relevant to fix RC bugs, see the last announcement from the release team I linked to) or consider removal of the version currently in testing (that is not include gdisk in Squeeze). Uploading a newer version to unstable before having decided what to do with the package in testing will complicate things: fixes targeted at Squeeze might have to go through testing-proposed-updates and get less testing by users before arriving in the testing distribution. Please think about how you would like to proceed, you might also want to ask the release team (debian-rele...@lists.d.o).
