Hi, Herminio.

Thanks for the description, but I have some questions.

Which version? From their git repository? From debian packages (e.g.,
"apt-get source foo")?

In which order are they patches to be applied (I haven't looked at them
to see if they are independent or not)? Michel, are these patches
unsuitable for inclusion upstream (if they are not already)?

Great! Can you put the source Debian packages somewhere (the .dsc and
the .tar.{xz,bz2,gz} ones)? That would be great for continuing from
where you stopped (even better if you put the packaging in a git tree).


Thanks once again,
