Hi there,

we recently became aware of the fact that you enabled the "SCI" engine in the ScummVM packaged for Debian.

We, the ScummVM team, would like to ask you to reconsider this and *disable* it again. We ship the release version of ScummVM with SCI enabled by default deliberately -- to sum it up, this engine is unstable and we are not yet ready to support it for non-developer users at this point.

I am sure you would also prefer if people did not distribute Lenny disk images with arbitrary packages form unstable added in. At least without any clear marking that this is not a regular version, supported by upstream, but rather a modified version.

Cheers,
Max
