If I understand the policy correctly, stable-updates is suitable for data (rather than code) changes. This update changes one byte of configuration data and no code. I changed the severity of the bug to important because without the fix, every user who installs the package has to visit the preferences screen, but with the fix, most users can apt install the package and it just works immediately. > >> Do I need to specify stretch-updates as the distribution in >> the changelog? > > No. For one thing, that's not how stable-updates works, and even if you > did then the upload should end up in the pu-new queue anyway and then p-u. > OK, thanks. Please just let me know when you make a final decision about the upload and I'm happy to revise it again if necessary. Regards, Daniel
