This package was originally yanked from Debian because its maintainer
was so inattentive that he didn't apply a known patch to fix a serious
data-loss bug. I care enough to maintain it to bring it back, and
intend to do so.

Hi,
would it be possible to clarify the title of this post by adding for
which distribution it is about: "testing" or "unstable" ? I guess it
is for "unstable", but packages in "unstable" are not meant to be
