Comment 9 for bug 288859

Phil: the thing we need here is confirmation that the package still works on hardy, and actually fixes the problem. The reason we put changes into -proposed is so that they can be tested; without comments from people who've tried them, whether with good or bad results, we can't assume that they're OK. (Bug 267570 has the same issue, and Martin asked roughly the same thing on 27th December, with no response so far.)
