It seems like oral tradition to me now. :) There is I think a single non-wishlist bug report against u-a in the BTS. So if there are still problems I'd be more than happy to hear about them. But regardless of the above, I think using alternatives would not be a good idea, because then those programs cannot be diverted, something I think at least molly-guard is doing. Also how to select the correct priority? I think what Lorenz proposes is a superior option. Thanks, Guillem
