thanks

Dear maintainer,

I've prepared an NMU for vftool (versioned as 2.0alpha-4.1) and
uploaded it to DELAYED/5. Please feel free to tell me if I
should delay it longer.

Note that the vulnerability fixed in this upload also applies to Squeeze
and probably Lenny, so if it is accepted I will prepare similar uploads for
those suites.

Regards.
