I'm attaching the source debdiff I'm getting ready to upload to unstable; maybe it'll be unblocked in time for 11.0 (it's been such a long-standing issue that it could wait until 11.1 but hopefully there's still some time for 11.0). I'd be pushing this to a new sid branch, since master is used for experimental at the moment. Happy to get an ACK, but I won't wait too long. :) Cheers, -- Cyril Brulebois (k...@debian.org) <https://debamax.com/> D-I release manager -- Release team member -- Freelance Consultant
