There was some action on #588588 again today. Let's hope it leads to a resolution. Since your QA page indicates that you are just getting started with Debian development (great!) and you appear to have some closer contacts with aircrack-ng, have you thought about asking to co-maintain the aircrack-ng package? There are already two maintainers, but they don't appear to be very active, at least on aircrack-ng. One of them is a DD, so he might be available as a sponsor. >> Until this is fixed, there is little point in packaging an UI for it. > I agree.
