Package: dosbox
Version: 0.74-4.2build1
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

It's been 6 years since the latest stable release of dosbox v0.74 and there's 
no clue on when they'll be releasing the next one. A lot of bug fixes have been 
done against svn and upstream usually encourages people to install and run a 
nightly svn snapshot instead.

To avoid using a not effectively supported upstream version of dosbox, I 
propose to package a given snapshot of their svn, the same way that this is 
done with other packages already in Debian.
