Greetings Release Team,
I'm writing to you as I would like your approval to upload dspam package to
testing-proposed-update in order to fix bug #644392. As you can see, the
version in unstable contains to many change for an unblock request and an
upload via testing-proposed-updates is necessary.
The patch comes from upstream and consist of fixing a commented command line to
call exim in dspam configuration. If users uncomment the current command line,
data loss can result from it, as explain the message [0].

Except for the upload via testing-proposed-update, I think the upload respect
the criterias: minor changes to fix an RC bug. You'll find attached the
debdiff.
As soon as I get your approval I'll ask a DD to upload the package (I don't
have my gpg key where I am right now) and will come back to you once all
architectures have build the package to ask you to approve the upload. By the
way, is this step done via BTS or via mail to the ML?
Best regards,
Thomas Preud'homme
