All point checked and sounds a good candidate for Main.

However, I have some build issue trying to rebuilding the tests:

I think that should be related to the new DSO linking policy (http://wiki.debian.org/ToolChain/DSOLinking). Can you please have a look at it?


It would be nice if someone in the team subscribe to the bug report (and it seems to be a very _low_ traffic).
Keeping in sync with debian sounds the best option fixing those issues.

(note: 3.6.0 is just out for a few days, if someone wants to take care of that and package in experimental, it seems to have an impressive list of new features and seems to fix the -fPIC issue forcing to make some trick in debian/rules).

As well, I'm subscribing kees, as this package is making some network traffic and doing a lot of system() call, it will be nice to have a review there.
