FWIW, thanks very much to you and to Debian for caring about such things, 
and for bringing it to our attention here at your pan upstream as well.  
It's the efforts of people like you that care, that help preserve the 
free software rights we all enjoy. =:^)

Meanwhile, I'm glad the issues were found and resolved.  They were a bit 
of a pain, but some of us /do/ care. =:^)

If I didn't care, after nearly a decade on MS it would have been much 
simpler for me to simply stay on servantware, but roughly a decade and a 
third later I've never regretted getting out of that servitude for one 
moment, and because I really do value my software freedom, I really 
/really/ value the work of those who help to keep it free! =:^)
