[Debian-med-packaging] pbh5tools_0.8.0+dfsg-5_amd64.changes REJECTED

[Afif Elghraoui]

Hi, Thorsten,
I haven't heard any renewed objection from you since providing my
justification (below) and Andreas Tille has added a word of support in
reply. I've uploaded the same thing again, hoping for acceptance this time.

Many thanks and regards
Afif
