Dear Paul

Many thanks for your email. As I have only recently started managing
packages on Debian, I am not sure if there is anything that I have to do
about this at all. If I understand correctly, the issue here is caused by
the fact that the latest sources (which are of version 1.0.0) are no longer
in sync with the version 0.7.0-1 of the Debian package. Some (automated, I
think) emails I have received after this one seems to suggest that this
issue has now been resolved.

Is my understanding correct? Or is there something that I still need to do?

Many thanks.

Best regards,
Gabriele
