Not a problem; we all are busy.

Yes, I noticed that you guys had packaged 1.6.2rc3...

I was planning to wait until 1.6.2rc3 transitions to testing just to 
have a little bit of assurance that it won't be as bad as 1.6.2rc1 was 
for me but sure, I can help with the testing. Worst case scenario is 
that this crashing bug is not fixed there and I just go back to the 
1.6.1.0~dfsg-1.0.0jones1 that I am currently running.

I'll upgrade within the next couple of days and report back.

Cheers,

Eloy.-
