thanks

Due the growing number of computers with build-in gigabit ethernet
adapters, I discussed with Alexander (the maintainer of mii-diag)
whether mii-diag should be part of Wheezy if #301239 is not fixed.  We
both agreed that mii-diag should not be released with Wheezy unless
gigabit ethernet support is added to it.

mii-diag's former upstream developer seems to have stopped working on it
a long time ago.  It would be great if someone sends an appropriate
patch fixing this bug to the bug's email address.

If this possible patch is easily reviewable by the stable release
managers, I think this bug should also be fixed in Squeeze in a stable
point release; anyway, it's up to Alexander and the stable release team
to decide if fixing it in Squeeze should be considered.

I also think mii-diag should be removed from Debian after the release of
Wheezy if #301239 is not fixed at this time.


Regards
Carsten
