Hi,

A short update on the synfig packages for the Debian archive:

I have found out that in this January, Dmitry Smirnov (onlyjob) actually already started to update the packages to the newest version! I have contacted him and we're now working together on getting the new versions ready to be proposed for the archives again. Fortunately, Dmitry is a knowledgeable Debian packager and has already done almost all of the work required, so there is not much left for me to do. ;)

I have tested to build and install the packages on a Debian testing VM, and everything went smooth. Testing on unstable will follow. Everything seems to work fine on Ubuntu, too (except for that crash-on-startup on Ubuntu 12.04, but I have already submitted a patch for that to the bug tracker [1]).

After the last details have been sorted out, the next step would be to get the package sponsored so that it can land in "unstable". I'll keep you updated!

Regards,
Denis
