Dear Aurelien, I am sorry if I offended you in any way by upgrading the bug severity, but according to your replies you were only downgrading the importance of the bug report, and saying that the lm80 is a very rare sensor indicating the non-importance of the bug report, since lm-sensors works for a lot of other sensors except lm80.
This kind of reply is not convincing for me, especially when there is a bug associated with version 3 of lm-sensors, not existing in version 2.10. I still don't know what you mean by "to fix the configuration converter", see below. Maybe this is not your fault, but mainstreams, but maybe a bug report reply could be entitled to some informative feedback, instead of the usual importance downgrading with a short/non-constructive reply! Lets work together to improve the quality of the Debian packages, including the bug fixes, and upstream reporting.
