I don't claim this bug to be RC (you can downgrade if you think it's not), but I strongly recommend that it's fixed properly before entering testing. > Maintainers don't usually ask that third parties maintain their > debian/* directories for them. I know that I'm not asked to maintain debian/debstd in the tcptrace package, but I feel very uncomfortable with the idea that it took me one year to fix #270900 (a bug which should have been serious if it wasn't because removing debmake would create even more RC bugs), and then people "prefer" to use their own jurassic debian/debstd. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
