About a thousand years ago, you reported the above. I apologize for not having replied to it earlier. I think this is a good idea, but I'm not sure when I'm going to have to time to implement it. It seems that libpaper1 is widely enough used that it may be a useful addition for upstream. In any case, I wanted you to know that I agree with the suggestion but may take some time to getting around to implementing it. I am also changing the priority to "wishlist". -- Jay Berkenbilt <q...@debian.org> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
