Steve: I must apologize profusely for my behaviour vis a vis all of this. It was upsetting to me that my first e-mail didn't elicit any sort of response or acknowledgement, even though I had seen you participating on other mailing lists. I felt like the request was ignored entirely, and failed to take into account all of the other issues surrounding the package upgrade.
Many of the other people I work closely with in the Debian community have tremendous respect for you, and I can see why. I am humbled that you were the bigger person here even though I was a complete jerk to you, and turned this whole thing into something that may yet have a productive outcome. I still think that an upgrade is in order, given all the bug fixes bundled in the upstream package, so when I have some time, I'll look into the FTBFS issues. I know we got off on the wrong foot, but if we ever meet, and I hope someday we will, I owe you a beer. Once again, I'm tremendously sorry for the trouble, and for wasting your time.
