Yeah, this prompting is in a codepath that won't be triggered anymore. [It's for upgrading from a version of defoma which we don't distribute anymore, and I didn't notice it when I was making a minimal QA release previously.] Since defoma should go away, I'm not going to bother to make a QA release where I just delete this codepath, but the next time someone makes an upload (if that actually happens) it should get deleted. Downgrading to important so people don't needlessly waste time looking at this bug. Don Armstrong -- CNN/Reuters: News reports have filtered out early this morning that US forces have swooped on an Iraqi Primary School and detained 6th Grade teacher Mohammed Al-Hazar. Sources indicate that, when arrested, Al-Hazar was in possession of a ruler, a protractor, a set square and a calculator. US President George W Bush argued that this was clear and overwhelming evidence that Iraq indeed possessed weapons of math instruction. http://www.donarmstrong.com http://rzlab.ucr.edu -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
