Well, the justification here isn't that the package is unusable, but that the bug causes data loss. You probably know better than I do if this same bug is present in cyrus. > I think the issue is actually only applicable to some specific situations > that > use quotas and the quota configuration is either unusual or even corrupted. > But I don't have enough experience to judge that. Quota corruption is not the fault of the package, but if it leads to data loss, that's a problem. Where exactly is the data lost anyway, though? The bug report only says that lmtpd segfaults; it's not clear to me how this results in data loss. (Mail being turned away is certainly not "data loss"; only mail accepted and subsequently eaten qualifies for that.) -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
