Well, those you need to convince with these arguments, Mario, is the release team. I know nearly nothing about this package and therefore can't discuss whether the fixes you're talking about above areimportant enough to deserve a freeze exception. It seems so, but I'm not the one who will unblock the package. So, my recommendation is: - if you feel these changes are mandatory enough for wheezy,then prepare the package with them and prepare a debdiff wrt the package version currently in wheezy - then ask for *pre-approval* to the release team: debian-rele...@lists.debian.org - there, explain that your fix includes a fix the the RC bug *plus* fixes you feel are mandatory for wheezy (mandatory means that you think the package is mostly useless without these changes) - then wait for their approval. If they approve, the point one of us to the .dsc and we'll upload If they only want to get the fix for the RC bug, then prepare a package with it...and we'll upload too.
