Thanks Ross :) I guess Krytarik and I didn't expect the reverts to be
necessary, but i take responsibility for failing to better synchronize
the team efforts and I add an entry to my
"why-i-need-to-learn-more-about-packaging"-list :) Anyways, now
everything the -release team asks for is there and i thank you for your
time and effort. Hopefully, despite being deprived of an up-loader in
the team, now that we know where we stand in that regard we will be able
to better anticipate this kind of situation.

I will poke them this afternoon and also try my luck in #u-devel

Yes, thank you! This reminds me that i need to inform you of the
following piece of knowledge I've been given:

I haven't been notified about the bug yet, so I'm assuming its underway,
but it might be good to put it there so we remember.

Thank you very much Ross,
