I have made some progress since it was made RC in October, but the bug is more complicated than I first though. I will continue to work on the solution, though my time has been limited of late by a busy work schedule.

Though the original bug has been open for less than a year, the bug was not made RC (serious) until October 2009 (3 months ago), when another user noticed a side effect of the original bug that arguably makes it serious. 2. I am working on a fix for the bug, and hope to have it committed in the next week or two, and certainly before the freeze for the squeeze release. 3. The requester did not contact me (the maintainer), nor did anyone else, before requesting the removal, as mentioned here http://wiki.debian.org/ftpmaster_Removals: "In all cases, if there is a maintainer and it's not you, mention the maintainer's opinion or, if you don't know it, mention how and when you tried to contact him. If you didn't try to contact the maintainer, do so first." In any case, removal of apt-transport-debtorrent is not required, as it is a separate package from debtorrent, and is unaffected by this bug. apt-transport-debtorrent doesn't depend on debtorrent, and it can be used by itself on a machine to communicate with debtorrent on a different machine. I'd like to close this removal request for the above reasons, but I'm unsure of the etiquette related to that, and so I will leave it as is in the hopes that someone will read this message before actually performing the removal.
