Dear Roland,

(this is about the aspcud version in debian, not the MISC competition!)

aspcud (the version as of 2011/03/17) does not work with clasp 2.1, see

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=686356

Do you know how to fix this?

The situation in debian is as follows: 
- debian sid (=unstable) now contains clasp 2.1, so we need to fix aspcd!
- debian wheezy (=testing) is frozen since we hope to release soon. That
means basically only patches for release-critical bugs are accepted for 
wheezy, no new upstream version. Wheezy will release (AFAICS) with clasp 2.0,
but since aspcud currently depends on clasp >= 2.0 this may cause
problems later when a user tries to partially upgrade his system. I see for
wheezy two possible solutions:

[1] patch aspcud so that it will work with both clasp 2.0 and clasp 2.1,
    if this is easily possible (with a small patch to the source code of
    aspcud).
[2] if [1] is not feasable then I can just fix the wheezy version of
    aspcud by strengthening the dependency on clasp to >=2.0 && < 2.1.

Do you think that [1] is possible?

Cheers -Ralf.
