could you do an update of 1.0.5 first, please? That RC bug[1] is one of the two[2] holding back kaffe from entering testing from what I see on [3]. An upload of 1.1.2 will not fix that bug, as it's a bug in stable, and 1.1.2 is has no chance going into stable until the next release, sarge, afa

Hi, Thanks Dalibor for these great news (and his work on Kaffe itself). So it seems that upstream 1.1.2 fixes most of the releast-critical problems of kaffe (except the manpage bug). It would therefore be very important for Java-on-Debian to have a new package made soon. Ean, can you do it? If
