Thanks for your care providing a patch. Even if I don't give a great importance to this issue, some people seem to (including you) so there's no reason to not consider your patch. Still, however, I'd like to get other D-I people advice about including these changes *now* as thereis always a risk of regressions which, at this point of the release, we would like to avoid. So, others, advice? Should we apply this patch or should we wait post-wheezy (with the risk of forgetting about it, which would be sad).
