Should I?) Yes, that would be very good. We are in freeze, so having bugs properly documented before I can address them was one essential prerequisite to get the fix into Etch before the release. > both have been fixed promptly in upstream.

Would you be able to send your two patches to the BTS, one attached to #403454 and the second one attached to a new bug report for the LABEL issue?
