It's granted already :-)

The outstanding problem is dansguardian where the maintainer apparantly
wants to be assured that rebuilding (the testing version by scheduling
binNMUs) is enough as the version in unstable is not meant for lenny: he
expects an answer of this team to his question about what changed in the
new clamav version (mainly according API)...
