Ah I didn't realise the freeze for Jessie was in effect... no, I doubt that Inkscape will meet the exception policy!

I guess we should push ahead with a merge from experimental then, but it might be a bit fiddly. Would it be reasonable to do something like:

bzr branch lp:debian/inkscape debian-inkscape
cd debian-inkscape

# First merge debian/experimental -> debian/unstable

bzr merge debian-experimental
bzr commit

# Now merge debian/unstable -> ubuntu
cd ..
bzr branch lp:ubuntu/inkscape ubuntu-inkscape
cd ubuntu-inkscape
bzr merge debian-inkscape
bzr commit

Is this a sensible approach, or will it cause headaches?
