[Pkg-owncloud-maintainers] Bug#802227: Bug#802227: owncloud-client: Forgets some synced directories, replaces with remote root and then fails to sync

[Sandro Knauß]

Hey,

thanks for your report.

This is a bug that should be solved upstream, as such I would strongly 
recommend to send it upstream directly. 
As package maintainers we are not very good acting as human proxies nor do we 
see the problem on our own.

You can submit the request in the upstream bug tracker (https://github.com/
owncloud/client/) .

If you decide to submit a new bug in the upstream bug tracker, please, tag
this bug as forwarded with the corresponding bug url
(http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org/btslink.html). That way we would get a
notification if the status changes in the upstream bug tracker.

If you have problems submitting a new bug, or something is unclear - Feel free 
to ask.

Anyhow it would be nice if you give a short status update, if this bug is 
still valid.

Regards,

sandro
