Precisely, that's what it does.

If that's so I would like to withdraw 0.2.7.1 from Testing.

I don't in the least ask for a new version of GNUmed in
Debian/Stable. First of all I ask for a consistent
explanation of why gnumed-client 0.2.7.1 cannot be installed
into a Stable system while 0.2.7.0 can.

The only dependancy change between those two versions was
#447405 which removed python-pgsql and added
python-psycopg2.

Would that be the reason ?

If so I wish to revert that fix because it worked before
that - the fix was merely cosmetic.
