I'm not perfectly true but I tried to change ownver with a plain e-mail address which seemed to work: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=45;bug=541239 > Is there maybe a length limit for the owner string ?

We might let this either settle after it seems to have worked now or you might like to ask debian-mentors for an explanation. > Got it. > I'll pay attention to the warning about versions. > > (and will stick to the 54002B version > in the particular case of gtm) Yes, that's the right approach.
