Currently Debian does not update packages to new upstream versions between major releases, so this will go into Lenny. Very sad... As user and supporter of Debian, I can't understand that bugs open before Etch was declared stable aren't corrected in Etch, even in an update release. I know it's a general Debian decision, but this discourages me to make new bug reports :'-( Having said that, there's probably nothing to stop you installing it yourself by hand; I think it should work on etch. Upstream claim this version fixes the timezone issue - I'd be interested to hear whether you find it has done! The new package intalls fine in Etch, and the TZ bug appears to be fixed. Thanks again for your work. -- Hope this helps, Fabien.

I know it's a general Debian decision, but this discourages me to make new bug reports :'-( Not Debian's (or my) fault this time - the upstream version which fixes the bug was not released until after Etch. Debian's policy of not updating upstream versions between releases is, as you say, a bit annoying, but it has one major advantage, and that is that *new* bugs don't accidentally get introduced, so the software is kept more stable. Of course, if you want the best of both worlds, then you can consider Ubuntu, because it takes Debian's testing track once every six months or so and builds a new Ubuntu from it. So Ubuntu will actually get this new version of tkcvs before Debian stable does. Please don't stop reporting bugs. Even if it takes a while to fix them, it's still important to know about them!

Thanks again for your work. Brilliant. I'm sorry it took so long...
