This was discussed on -devel last month. Please refer to: http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2006/01/msg00731.html In this thread, it is discussed that an NMU is not the correct thing to do just becuase someone disagrees with the maintainer. Seems like -ctte is the correct thing to do. I'm frankly suprised nobody has written -ctte yet. It seems obvious to me that this bug should be RC. -stew -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
