New debian snapshots are available.  The name of packages has been

What's the rationale for this change?  This doesn't allow anymore
installing *both* ekiga stable and -snapshot.

more worse, won't allow upgrade at all due to unfixed(?) gconf issue(s) not handled by the package's installer.


According to [1], I understand this as your first step into
co-maintainership of ekiga and its rdepends, with the result of new
ekiga packages in Debian experimental.

However, will snapshots.e.n stop providing snapshot packages after the
new ekiga will enter Debian?  I don't think this is the desired
solution, which means that the package should be (again) renamed to
-snapshot.

I would second that and suggest rollback to the previous snapshot maintainer's 
practice.


Thx, bye,
