Unfortunately I can not sponsor you, but at least your package has only minor nits to pick now: - latest Standards-Version is 3.6.1.0, - you should define man 'SECTION' to 1 in debian/gnome-ppp.sgml, - you may ask upstream for some strange warnings while compiling like: gnome-ppp-wvdialconf.c: In function `on_wvdialconf_out': gnome-ppp-wvdialconf.c:58: warning: char format, different type arg (arg 3) [...] gnome-ppp-main.c: In function `main': gnome-ppp-main.c:34: warning: statement with no effect - (ITP the package, so others will know it's being packaged). After fixing the first two, write a RFS mail to here, hope you will find a sponsor soon. Gotta go catch some sleep, Laszlo/GCS

Oh, yep, removed. Changes will be available in next package revision (I don't think it's good thing to upgrade the package just because of manpage upgrade, I have 5 package revisions already, so I won't update it now) -- Dan Korostelev <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
