Unless you are special, only targetted fixes are normally allowed in stable. You should be able to do a full diff between the nsis 3.08-3 and 3.09-1 and explain all of the changes and why it is a targetted minimal fix. (Except maybe version number changes) If there is unrelated changes, consider looking at a targetted fix and try to get a 3.08-4 in testing instead. Once you have a tested nsis where you have read and understand and can explain the full diff of what you want to do, please attach the full diff to said bug report and remove the moreinfo tag. >From your description, the two fixes sounds worth fixing in stable. /Sune
