Thank you for agreeing. I will prepare a new upload and adopt the package in the next week or so. I don't think that a formal RFA/ITA is necessary since I will be doing this with your blessing. > Lorenzo, > > Thanks for your help over the years. Your efforts are much appreciated. > Agreed.

However, I agree with Andrew's comment in this thread that storing the debian/ directory directly in svn is probably a bad idea. Let me first work on an updated package so that we can get 3.4.7 into Debian and then I will work on a solution for being able to build directly from svn. Regards, -Roberto -- Roberto C.
