Pietro, thanks for your contribution to Debian!
Howeber, the deeper problem is that the maintainer himself didn't followup
on this bug during the last 70 days. As such, I prefer to remove libcloud
from Squeeze. A package like this needs an active maintainer, it's too
volatile to rot in the archive.
If you have a deeper interest in libcloud, you could pick up the maintenance
of libcloud in the future.
[ Adding debian-release to CC, please remove libcloud from testing for now ]
Cheers,
Moritz
