Yes, of course. Thanks. I shall make the change in SVN to match.

uim-applet-gnome (#383040) and ggz-kde-games (no report as I have found
it just now) I think, as they both use ${source-Version} to depend on
their data.

The binNMU safe ones are evolution-exchange and ggz-kde-client. I am
unsure of how to proceed, as Andreas Metzler has been handling it up to
now. Shall I email -release with a binNMU request for these two?

Also I am have only checked i386 for binary dependencies, is there a way
to ensure the same for all arches?

Thanks,

James
