I agree with you; however this particular point should not be a reason for rejecting a package. It is clearly something that has to be synchronized with upstream, and it not of such severity that the package couldn't be accepted without such an upstream change. Especially if one notices that there won't be a new upstream release until autumn 2006. Regards, Frank -- Frank Küster Inst. f. Biochemie der Univ. Zürich Debian Developer
