Thank you

It all happened as an accident: I uploaded libmsn to the archive but then
it was rejected because I am DM not DD and with the gcc5 transition, a new
soname is created. Plus I had forgot to add the "Closes #791140" to the
changelog. I was in fact looking for an sponsor for the upload but you were
faster than me :-)
