the further debians version of gaim gets from where upstream releases the harder it gets to backport security updates and/or fixes for severe breakages, in both woody and sarge it seems gaim was therefore left with outstanding security bugs before the releases lifetime was over.
it would therefore seem far more sensible to have the gaim 2 betas in etch rather than a cvs snapshot of a release series that seems to have been abandoned by its upstream. However there are two packages currently getting in the way gaim-meanwhile: the functionality of this package has become part of gaim and the package has been marked for removal from unstable but that hasn't happened yet. gaim-librvp: a minor protocol plugin and not present in sarge so removing this should not be an issue for stable users (when etch goes stable) and testing users should just be able to hang on to thier current gaim until this is ported to gaim 2. could theese be removed from testing to allow gaim 2 to drop in? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
