  Hello Francesco:

  Thank you very much for reporting this bug. We would need a definite 
confirmation but it's quite likely that the problem is as Kai explained: new 
dpkg versions fixed a bug that in turn uncovered a bug in the kvirc-data 
package we, unfortunately, overlooked for Lenny.

  The final check would be installing sid version 4:4.0.0~svn3240-1 which we 
think solves the problem. So we will consider this bug is fixed in sid, but we 
will keep it open because of it implications. Due to this, kvirc can't be 
installed on testing. The natural solution for this would be waiting for some 
days tilll sid version reaches testing, but unluckily the transition is being 
locked by krb5 package right now.

  We will research how to soothe this, since there are methods to address the 
issue, like testing-proposed-updates queue. Problem with this kind of methods 
is that they are quite intrusive as regards to the Debian natural package 
processing and should be done very carefully and counting with some people 
like Release Manager that is usually very busy doing more important stuff.

  To sum up: bug should be fixed in sid (or report otherwise), we consider this 
fixed as well, due to its severity we will look if a temporary solution for 
testing is possible. Sorry for the inconveniences.

  Regards,
