Time passes and the bug is still in Debian/Testing.

   please look at the end of:

   it looks like things are happening, but how quickly those
changes are applied and uploads happen and are approved may
take some time yet.

   like you i was kinda wondering if any fix at all was
happening or if anyone was even looking into it.

   i sure don't have the skills or expertise in either
filezilla or gnutls to track something like this down.  :(
all i can be is appreciative for those who do and say
thank you!  :)

I appreciate the people doing this, but this is a serious issue. I have to resort to firing up a VM or resorting to the command line on my local server to update my web sites because I can't do it from Testing. I see it also impacts other programs that I (fortunately) don't use as much.

When faced with a major bug, shouldn't there be a procedure to pull back the testing version - like restoring the previous version with a bumped-up version number while working on the known buggy version in experimental (no need to punish people using SID)?
