Unfortunately I cannot commit to yet another project, I already want
to get rid of some of the current burden because I stopped being
effective in several fronts lately...

I added you explicitly in CC because I didn't know whether you were
receiving these bug reports (the primary maintainer is Debian Games
Team), and if you planned to do something about this bug report.
Nobody else in the games team seems to step forward to do this.

Just to be explicit, are you willing to do it (the second option, just
a new revision) for Jessie?  Or you don't plan to upload new revisions
for the time being?

I don't know if it's too late already to get the changes accepted for
Jessie, but I think that 3 weeks is enough time if the upload is done
now-ish.


Cheers.
