Ah, I understand you now: You present breakage when using code not in 
Debian.  Quite confusing - please *always* mention explicitly in 
bugports when using non-Debian packages!

I only asked whether or not it was related - I did not imply it was not.

I was genuinely confused by your terse writing style.

Another point of confusion was that a different topic was used in the 
email than in original bugreport topic.  I was unaware (until digging 
into archive, when in above latest post you still didn't elaborate much) 
that was a wishlist bug, so assumed that your presenting code failing 
was to be treated seriously.


With the best of intentions,

 - Jonas
