** Description changed:

- A recent bug report updated pyzmq to 2.0.10
- (https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/709089) apparently the first 2.0.10
- instead of the bugfix release 2.0.10-1 (presumably because that was the
- debian pakage).  2.0.10-1 is a crucial bugfix that plugs a memory leak
- that rendered pyzmq practically unusable for any long-running process,
- so it would be valuable to have the bugfix version. No packaging is
- necessary, as the debian experimental package
- (http://packages.qa.debian.org/p/pyzmq.html) has just been updated to
- 2.0.10-1.
+ 2.0.10.1 is an upstream bugfix release, fixing issues including a memory
+ leak, but maintaining compatibility with ZeroMQ 2.0.10. There are
+ currently no Ubuntu changes.
+ 
+ More detail:
+ 
+ A recent bug report updated pyzmq to 2.0.10 from Debian.  2.0.10.1 is a
+ crucial bugfix that plugs a memory leak that rendered pyzmq practically
+ unusable for any long-running process, so it would be valuable to have
+ the bugfix version, which has just been uploaded into Debian.
+ 
+ (Version numbering: Upstream initially released the bugfix as 2.0.10-1.
+ Since this clashed with Debian package numbering, the upstream numbering
+ scheme was changed to 2.0.10.1. This is packaged in Debian as
+ 2.0.10.1-1. Sorry for any confusion.)

** Summary changed:

- Please sync pyzmq 2.0.10.1 from Debian experimental
+ Please sync pyzmq 2.0.10.1-1 from Debian experimental
