Hi, nice to have a new rc, thanks to all the developers for their hard work! rc-1 has worked very good so far, I suppose it won't take long to have a final 3.3.

I had the same problem some weeks ago, I could not compile git because I didn't want to build all xcb libs myself. Julien was kind enough to share Debian packages for amd64 here: http://naquadah.org/~jd/debian/xcb-util/ While not as comfortable as have them in a repository that helped for the meantime. Now all required libs are in unstable, and I hope this stays like this for some time.
