Setting to "Invalid".
This package will be synced automatically (in the near future) when an archive admin runs the autosync script.

The automatic sync seems to have already happened (after which the debian version was updated), or is it done more often?

[Nathan Handler (nhandler)]

Automatic syncs take place up until the Debian Import Freeze (DIF). The DIF for Jaunty is on December 25, as can be seen by the release schedule (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyReleaseSchedule). Prior to that point, packages with no Ubuntu changes will be automatically synced from Debian. As a result, there is no need to file sync requests for those packages. Usually, packages are synced within a week of being updated in Debian. After the DIF, the automatic syncs stop, and you must manually request syncs for these packages.

Ah, thanks for the explanation. This is a welcome change form earlier release cycles when this didn't always happen.
