Hi, Please file a (pre-approval) unblock requests against release.debian.org with the proposed debdiff[1]. Though please keep in mind that we will review the changes - if the changes are larger than "reasonably reviewable" or are generally outside the freeze policy, we will reject the changes. That said, we may still accept a cherry-picked subset of the changes. Without having seen the diff, I would be willing to consider "endianness" issues for an "important" bug. But we make no final decision until we have since the changes. Thanks, ~Niels [1] Possibly filtered to exclude translations, auto-generated files (e.g. configure et al). Just remember to mention the filtering you have applied. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
