I know. I have actually seen the black list proposal on debian-devel but
I didn't expect them to really push that through... and I realize that I
failed to fix it in time. Well.

However, I really wish that you hold this NMU back for a few days. I
think you have thought it through and most of the changes will be used
but there is at least one thing that looked suspicious (this patch of
acfg.cc, the part you replaced was meant for systems without glob(), if
I remember correctly, and shouldn't be effective on Debian/glibc based
ones, but I am not sure though). So I really wish to proof read this
without rush and having a clear mind.

Unfortunately I am not in the condition to work on Debian packages in
the next couple of days but I hope to find some spare time on Sunday.

Yes, it is. It's on my TODO list, and I planned to switch to git,
actually. This will happen soon, I hope.

Regards,
Eduard.
