Can I move mutt-i from non-us to main?
There is no crypto code in the package, only SHA-1 (hash algorithm) and
code to run pgp or gnupg.
(Waiting to resolve this issue I haven't uploaded yet the stripped version

Hi,
just in case you haven't noticed yet, I've uploaded a fixed
sysklogd package which is already installed in the archive.
I've reverted a patch that caused problems.
You can also find the package from:
ftp://ftp.infodrom.north.de/pub/people/joey/debian/sysklogd_1.3-28_i386.deb
