In that case, please fix the version information: Found in version s3ql/1.12-1 It also shouldn't be tagged "sid". > I have not yet uploaded a patched version for sid, because I wasn't sure > if/how this interacts with getting an update into wheezy.

Fixing sid first is always appreciated, even where a t-p-u will be required to fix wheezy (afaict the fix would be essentially the same in each case); thanks.
