Upstream may either release very slowly or may just not care about Debian, which would result in the package to never end up in Debian. I'd consider not fixing it in the .deb (irrespective of what upstream does) as a blocker. Having an uncooperative upstream would likely make me think twice about putting it in Debian in the first place. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
