Hi Adeodato, Thank you for the feedback. Interestingly the first set of tests did seemed to work when I was testing various combinations before making the upload of 0.9.0-4. But I've changed them as suggested.
I've also changed the handling of the return code as suggested.
Please find attached debdiffs between 0.9.0-5 (just uploaded) and both
0.9.0-1 (in lenny) and 0.9.0-4 (the previous version I'd uploaded).
Cheers!
