No, the package in unstable includes a change to the debhelper compat level and undocumented changes to the Debian packaging. This is not appropriate for a freeze exception. We obviously need 400835 resolved for etch, though, since the package in testing is currently unusable. A targetted fix by way of testing-proposed-updates would be fine; the alternative would have to be to remove the package from the release. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
