Yeah I'm sorry for the skipped release, I promise I will backport the latest one once buster is released, but for the moment v14.9.11 is the version we have to work with. The policy for acceptable changes during the full freeze period is pretty clear: https://release.debian.org/buster/freeze_policy.html and I don't think an update to e.g. 14.9.14 will fit. > |The patch doesn't apply cleanly onobs-imap-gssapi.h from v14.9.11 (I did > |fix the paths, of course), but making the same changes manually to > |produce a new patch looks easy.

Thanks Steffen! I will try to apply the patch tomorrow. Paride
