Dear all, I’m the uploader of the gnss-sdr package, and I’m a little confused: what’s the best way to proceed from here? Should I submit a 0.0.9-5 version to unstable closing this bug in the Changelog, or I should omit it since it was closed in a previous version in experimental?
Thanks in advance for your guidance.
