That's not really a criterion in and of itself for fixing things in stable though. > +slbackup (0.0.12-2+squeeze2) stable; urgency=low > + > + * New maintainer: Mike Gabriel <[email protected]>. > + * Drop CRON job /etc/cron.daily/slbackup. Re-enable configuration > + of slbackup via debconf templates (closes: #662914). This change appears not to have been applied to unstable yet afaict; is that correct? Looking through the diff, "drop" appears to mean: + if (system("dpkg --compare-versions \"".$ARGV[1]."\" le \"0.0.12-3\"") == 0) { + system("test -f /etc/cron.daily/slbackup && rm /etc/cron.daily/slbackup"); + } At a minimum that should be checking that the file in question hasn't been modified since the version shipped by the package, otherwise it's an invitation for a new RC bug.
