I just adopted fabric and I don't know 100% sure why it is not available in Wheezy. What I have found is: * Fabric was removed from Wheezy October 26, 2012: http://packages.qa.debian.org/f/fabric/news/20121026T163911Z.html but there is any reason indicated there. My wild guess is because bug #680209 with severity serious. A new upstream version was uploaded October 30, 2012: http://packages.qa.debian.org/f/fabric/news/20121030T000230Z.html fixing the bug mentioned earlier. However, Wheezy was already in deep freeze by then (it froze end of June) and nobody asked an exception to have the new package in wheezy to the release team. And if asked, it would have most likely rejected due to the deep freeze. Ana -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-qa-packages-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
