Did you ever consider contacting upstream before doing such
denouncement? Don't they have something to say? Why do you think you
cannot find a solution with them?

You got it! It has nothing to do in a bug report log from our BTS:
Date: Mon, 26 Aug 2002 23:17:21 +0200
From: Robert Millan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
To: Bas Zoetekouw <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Robert could have done it on his own without CC'ing the BTS.
