Hello Helmut,

First of all, thanks for pointing out this issue.

This was my first thought when i first packaged dotlrn and openacs, but
upstream authors highly discouraged me about doing it. AFAIK, dotlrn
uses a heavily modified version of the openacs core, being stuck with an
old version (5.5.1, while openacs 5.7.0 is in wheezy), so i guess at
this point it is not reasonable at all.

However, i have heard they are trying to solve it in future versions of
dotlrn, so chances are that it could be done then.

I'm afraid that could be the best option for now, i would be grateful if
you could do that, thanks!
