Hi Salvatore,

Indeed, I misunderstood how upstream fixed the problem, and failed to
see that there was 2 patches, the announces were indeed a bit confusing.
Thanks a lot for finding this out, and ensuring that I did the proper
fix. I'll try to push upstream to make a new release of Nova, so that
we've got better assurance all issues are addressed.

I've already applied upstream patch, the package is building, and I will
upload it shortly to Sid.

Cheers,

Thomas Goirand (zigo)
