I hope upstream is working on this problem, before it hits Testing.
Do you fellas have 'apt-listbugs' installed? Don't know if it would have helped in this case, but running SID one should have that package installed. Lets you know before hand if bugs have been filed - of course if none have, it's still buyer beware on SID. Hope you all filed bug reports. ;-D I'm on testing, so have nothing to report in terms of the issues in this thread.
