  Hello All:

  I'm not having enough time to connect to IRC so I decided I could ask for 
sponsor in the ML.

  I've finish the package review for kvirc which I intend gets into Lenny. I 
have tried to avoid major changes, but a double compilation(release goal) 
error using simple-patchsys rules from CDBS made me move to quilt. The rest 
are bugs I've considered important having them being reported in BTS or not.

This is the relevant changelog entry:

Changes:
 kvirc (2:3.4.0-2) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Adding 30_security-cipherlist-bad-order_r1990.patch collected 
upstream.This solves SSL ciphering security bug: 
https://svn.kvirc.de/kvirc/ticket/155
   * embedding perl needs PERL_SYS_INIT3() (Closes: #495064) Taken from svn 
and added as 51_PERL_SYS_INIT3_r2271-bug495064.patch
   * GPL code linked against OpenSSL in KVirc (Closes: #495269) Updated 
copyright file according to Copyright Holder license additions.
   * Adding 52_windowmenu-crashes_r1991.patch taken upstream to fix Window 
menu options crashing.
   * Moved patches to quilt since double compilation fails (see: #414305).
   * Tighten build-depends for automake >= 1.10

The package has been uploaded to mentors. The url is: 
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/k/kvirc/kvirc_3.4.0-2.dsc

Packaging changes have been version controlled as regularly. You may follow 
them at svn://svn.debian.org/pkg-kde/kde-extras/kvirc/trunk/debian

  I'd appreciate if someone of you can review and eventually upload this 
package since it will be the last KDE3/Qt3 oriented KVIrc into Debian.

  I welcome all comments and critics.

  TIA, regards,
