Is this issue of sufficient import to warrant an explicit mention in the point release announcement mail, beyond the standard one-liner in the list of updated packages?

Given upstream's past record I don't expect any particular surprises but I'd still like to find time to go through the diff in a little more detail. > I can build an upstream debdiff if you want me to, but I suppose you > generate those with debdiff on queue processing anyway? They're auto-generated by the queue processing tools once they spot the upload (so within 30 minutes of the upload hitting p-u-NEW). Manually generated diffs are more useful for allowing us to consider prospective changes before they get uploaded. :-) Regards, Adam -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
