I guess I wouldn't mind updates merely dropping new .xsd/.xsl and .scm into the appropriate paths. Indeed taxbird isn't very useful to have in a stable release in its current form unless it's updated once or twice per year. Fortunately libgeier doesn't seem to have any rdeps other than taxbird and didn't have serious C modifications at all. I didn't review taxbird yet, though. I wonder why those two are separate packages, though, and why you need to touch both instead of placing the knowledge into one, but I guess that's a design issue that we can't solve. I'm not opposed to the idea, but I'd like to see the debdiff (also of the binary result, built on stable). At least for libgeier it probably doesn't make sense to backport specific changes AFAICS. There are OpenSSL compatibility fixes we don't need, but they're ifdef'ed. Kind regards, Philipp Kern -- .''`.
