Hello Lorenzo Sorry for getting in on this so late. I did the last couple uploads on this package, and I'd really rather it not be merged. . There is no reason to do so, especially with the Debian maintainers of this package being unresponsive. Not that I criticize any Debian or Ubuntu contributer for inactivity, I've come back from a year long semi inactive period myself. However that still doesn't change the fact that merging with Debian at this time would have no beneficial effect on the Ubuntu users of this package. There is nothing new in this revision, only a security patch which we already have. Doing it just for the sake of doing it just seems a waste IMHO. If you really want to improve the Ubuntu ircd-hybrid package I would suggest packaging the new upstream version 7.2.3 which has been out for nearly a year iirc, it will be tricky the security issue that effects the current version is stll present in 7.2.3 (again iirc), and there is a dfsg repack to do as well as some patches from svn to merge in. This will make Ubuntu better, and give you a whole heck of alot more practice with more development issues then just a simple merge
