You still seem to remove a couple of changelog entries, also you change the maintainer and do all kinds of other changes which are not really clear to me:

gaaaah, it's a long story. I built the original 1.5.2 package which was in Gutsy, and then Free's separate package for 1.6.0beta1 was synced over from Debian, and now I'm trying to sync up the two packages' changelogs in the new 1.6.0beta2 package. I merged all the entries I could see in the changelog that were different, but I'm guessing when the beta1 package was synced from debian, some entries were lost.

I've spent so much time trying to merge the histories of these two packages, I didn't change the maintainer, nor did I change the other crap. That was done by Free in the debian package/sync, not by me.

What should I do here?

We have two lineages for these packages, and it's impossible for me to get every single detail correct. (I've talked to Free, and from now on we're going to just try to publish a debian package, and then get that synced into Universe from Debian. So if you could please excuse the slightly confusing history of this package for the Feb 14th universe freeze, I'll make sure this doesn't happen again.)

Thanks,
Albert

Oh, and another thing - This is a "big deal" for us because 1.6.0beta1 is pretty unstable, and we don't want people to run a crappy unstable version of our software. That's why I didn't personally package beta1 for Universe earlier.

If we don't get beta2 into Universe before the freeze, then I'd prefer to roll back to the old 1.5.2 package because it's more stable.

Thanks again...

Sorry, I uploaded this before I knew of this bug. Thanks for your work anyway, and its better to attach the .diff.gz to the bug directly.
