OK, thanks for your details. I do also think, that this bug is not a release critical rather an important bug. So - I'm still interested in working for the policyd weight package but currently I do not know where to start properly. My idea to repackage the current stable one wasn't that smart, apperently :) In the long run, I want to take over the package as there is currently no maintainer for it. As you said, I should check the current package in testing if the mentioned bug there does also persist ? best regards and thank you, Werner -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
