Hello Alejandro, maintainer of cournol,

I'm working on improving package quality, and I found a release-critical bug filed against cournol: Bug #502507 is from two months ago. <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=502507>

I'm CC:ing the bug, as well as Mako (my usual sponsor; I'm not a Debian Developer), as well as my account manager, Steffen.

cournol's build dependency list includes a package that is not in sid anymore, so I have prepared an NMU that includes a patch in the BTS to fix that issue. This patch is necessary to allow cournol to continue to build against sid.

http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/cournol/cournol_0.5-1.2.dsc is the dsc link. I intend to ask Mako to upload this as a Non-Maintainer Update (NMU) if you do not reply within a few days. I intend to stick to the conventions at http://www.debian.org/doc/developers-reference/pkgs.html#nmu for this NMU.

I did jump ahead a little and already prepare the NMU, but don't be offended by that; if you like my changes and have time to do the update yourself, please just re-use them yourself and upload it yourself.

If you do not have time to upload this update, then just say it is okay and we will uploaded it as an NMU. If you do not have even time for that, then it will be uploaded as an NMU anyway. You have about two weeks, as per the usual process.

My .dsc source package is available at
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/cournol/cournol_0.5-1.2.dsc

The debdiff between the source packages is attached as debdiff.patch.

-- Asheesh.
