Duh. I didn't saw this target. I told you I wasn't familiar with CDBS ;)

For the "all in one" patch, I actually don't know why I did that. I 
should have known better. Of course a patch against the debian dir is 
the way to go.

I misread guidlines in /usr/share/doc/autotools-dev. Now that you point 
it to me, I can see that I should have paid more attention to the 
introduction ;)

Ok.

It is OK to me, except that I just saw a little UI problem in the patch. 
The remote drive mapping should be disabled in the UI when the selected 
protocol is not RDP. Attached is a svn diff that correct it.

My friend should upgrade the sourceforge version shortly (it seems it is 
not possible to attach a new file if you are not the original submitter).

Thanks for educating me ;)
