Hi Ted,

Could you please give some reasons why you consider this problem
"important"?  To my perception it is rather minor or even wishlist.

This "perhaps" seems to underline my lower classification of the bug as
mentioned above.  And I can confirm that most probably the package can
be patched and that the chances of letting this happen are close to 100%
if you would actually send a patch for this problem.  Moreover I guess
that upstream might also be more positive if you send a working patch
rather than asking for a feature which is obviosely not considered a
core functionality.

In short:  Please send a working patch and I would consider including it
into the Debian package.

Kind regards

       Andreas.
