hey guys,

it's there, I adept updated this update today. So great work! But... I have
some thoughts about the whole procedure.
I reported this bug on the 26th of October, in the roaring days just after
the Edgy release. On the 1st of November the package with the fix was ready.
This is a very fast response I think, you can be proud of it, and that makes
the rest of the story such a shame .
Because today, it's December the 7th, So it took more than a month before
the fix was actually released! In my opinion this is way too long. This fix
fixes a serious upgrade bug (no X!), and should have been available as soon
as possible. Of course some time for testing the package is necessary, but I
suspect that in the last 5 weeks a lot of people unnecessarily suffered from
this bug.

just my 2cts,

Martijn
