Apologies. That was mutt doing a reply all...

Ok, done that now.

I agree. I've upgraded one of my systems to sid now and have started
using it as a build env.

Seems easy enough. I've converted over to using this system now.

Nice catch.


I've rebuild my package now (and it seems to be 3.7.2 complient). I've
uploaded it to mentors.debian.net again. Hopefully the updated packages
will be moved from incoming/ to the pool soon.


Thanks for your help and constructive feedback...
