** Description changed: [ Description ] Take this new upstrem stable release. + + It was easiest for me to merge the latest release in this series from + Debian, and then import the subsequent point releases on top of that. + + Visually in the diff there is one change resulting from this: splitting + a two-patch upstream cherry pick into two individual patch files. This + is cleaner anyway IMO, but is also no change if you look at the + resulting patched source.
