This is bad. Have you contacted the maintainer? Is it time for Quality > Assurance to step in? Anybody want to do a NMU of slang?
I have been talking to Christian. The new packages of slang are ready to go. I have been waiting for other people to upgrade their packages to slang1_1.2.2-3 which fixes a dependancy problem. Most people have updated their packages but there were a few more that had promised to upload soon. As soon as 1.3.8 is uploaded those packages will break (and since a couple of them and slang are all default packages this means most upgrades of potato will break) I announced most of this before. I don't mean to deflect all the criticism as I have been on and off on holiday and haven't been bugging the other people as much as I should. I will do an upload today.
