Hi aggain,

Not necessarily. As far as I can read the release.debian.org hints, 2.0-3 has 
been hinted to migrate despite the freeze. So I think we can safely assume 
that a fixed 2.0-3 could pass the freeze.

Sure. But we can try making it ready for Wheezy first.

I'm not confident enough for this step yet.

Now for the content of your proposed upload:

  * Update to stable release 2.1.
  * Deleted file debian/patches/fix-build-on-kfreebsd-and-hurd-i386:
    accepted in upstream.

The two above are too much for a freeze exception. They would be suitable for 
experimental.

  * Added file debian/patches/ignore-symlinks:
    prevents of possible infinite loop because of circular symlinks.
    (Closes: #678714)

I'm far from convinced that your proposed patch properly addresses #678714: 
you address point 1 by "avoiding symlinks" (this means that a Gtk3 theme put 
under /usr/share/themes/* with a symlink would not be detected e.g.) and you 
haven't addressed the point 2; you should answer to the bugreport by 
explaining how you plan to address (or not) it.

So if we want this to go to Wheezy, we need a proposed source package as 
minimal as possible from 2.0-3 which was hinted for Wheezy. New translations 
might be put in though.

Cheers, OdyX
