I remember the upload. The change was made as to work with both schemes of GG_LIBGADU_VERSION, so the configure script will parse 1.7.YYYYMMDD just fine. (For the casual readers of #310276, and for -talk: I changed debian/rules to pass --with-external-libgadu to ./configure.) > Also (this is probably a question to the release managers) do I need to > wait for anything else before I upload? No, everything looks fine, but thanks a lot for contacting us first. :-) > Another thing: I'd like to make use of the new '~' support, but I've > read (in DWN I think) that buildds don't support it yet. Is it going to > be fully supported anytime soon? This would be untrue, see e.g.: http://buildd.debian.org/pkg.cgi?pkg=python2.5&ver=2.5~c1-1 ekg_1.7~rc2-1 will work just fine.
