Dear Paul, thank you for your e-mail.
I believed that I fixed the FTBFS bug when I uploaded the release 4.2-1 of units-filter approximately one month ago. However, I probably did too much work: I enriched the package with a new graphic user interface, so the new package is now in the NEW queue. If I upload another package, without the new features (and the new binary artifact), is there a chance that it will be taken in consideration by the build system ? I fear that it would compete with the other package in the NEW queue. Another option would be to manage the NEW package, either drop it or accept it, in order to fix the bug immediately, or open the way for a simple bugfix upload. Thank you in advance for any suggestion. Best regards, Georges.
