Thank you, I've updated the original report. There are many reasons to want to have another Bitcoin application in Ubuntu sooner than later, I tried to summarize.
** Description changed: electrum - Easy to use bitcoin client + + Rationale: Bitcoin has gained significant adoption and would benefit + from being supported as soon as possible by a stable, proven client such + as Electrum, in addition to Bitcoin-QT. Electrum can be installed + manually but making it part of the distribution beginning next cycle + would make it easier to install, update and test, and would provide a + choice for user wanting to use Bitcoin. This package was accepted in Debian testing on Sept. 12. Source package: electrum Version to sync: 1.8-1 From: Debian testing (main) For more details see: http://packages.qa.debian.org/e/electrum.html Project website: http://electrum.org Feature freeze is in effect since Aug. 29th.
