I fail to see a huge difference between http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=coreutils;dist=experimental;arch=i386 and http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=coreutils;dist=unstable;arch=i386 >> * You ignored my recent query about the state of the package[1]. > > Well, I don't have any record of that email in my email box.
