Sorry, friends. Obviously too busy, I am not keeping up with Debmirror work at the moment. You have my blessing to help, to upload, to hijack, as you think best. I regret having impeded your work in the meantime.
I do not even have an up-to-date sid installation at the moment against which to compile, so I cannot help right now. Should you absolutely require my prompt attention in the matter (though I doubt that I can help), please copy your messages to thaddeus.h.bl...@gmail.com; or better, phone me after 13:00 UTC but before 01:00 UTC at +1 540 921 1759.
