Hi Ron, I seriously don't understand for what you started off with an offensive tone. I did see the changes in the git before filing the bug and I totally agree with you that there seems to be no significant Changes. But I saw that rc4 was released just one week later and thought there might be some important bugs which might have been fixed. I did not do a code diff and even if I do I am not sure I'll understand the changes as I'm not familiar with dovecot-antispam code. I have often seen that some debian maintainers don't update their packages even when necessary as they are too busy. Only when someone raises a bug, they check and upgrade it. And just so that you know that I am not apathetic Towards the effort put in by the debian maintainers, I myself am an debian maintainer and have spent weeks in getting a package into shape for its smooth upgrading. Rather than blaming me for filing free bugs, you could have just said that rc4 fixes nothing, so won't upgrade. That would take only 2 minutes of your time, make your response to my query less offensive and make the reason for closing the bug more lucid. Anyway, I appreciate your packaging and maintaing dovecot-antispam as I use it a lot and will go ahead with backporting -rc3.

Also perhaps I unnecessarily took your initial response in an offensive manner when you were just trying to tell me something, in which case I owe you an apology.

Bug#627999: closed by Ron r...@debian.org (Re: Bug#627999: dovecot-antispam: New upstream version 1.4-rc4 available)
I thought the content was clear. Anyway, rephrasing the bug so that it is extremely clear what I want, here it is: The current version of dovecot-antispam in debian Sid seems to be based on upstream version 1.4-rc3. The author of dovecot-antispam has released a later upstream version 1.4-rc4. I request the debian maintainer of dovecot-antispam to migrate the debian package to upstream version 1.4-rc4. Let me know if this is not comprehensible and you need further clarifications.
