thanks

I created a fixed package (actually two: one for sid/etch and one for
sarge), available at https://mail.incase.de/spampd/sarge-security/
respectively at https://mail.incase.de/spampd/sid/ (until my sponsor
finds the time to upload the latter to sid). Personally, I'm indifferent
wether this fix should be uploaded to the testing-security archive,
since the fixed version should propagate quickly from sid.

Martin: Would you please upload the sid version to the archive?

Security-Team: What else do I need to do to get the fixed version into
sarge/security?

regards,
Sven

PS: For various reasons, I probably won't be online again until Tuesday,
18th, so feel free to NMU if needed.
PPS: The fix is rather simple. Instead of the non-working escaping for %
(which got replaced by %% up until version 2.20-9), I chose to replace
it with the non-special character "?", like it is already done with
non-printable and high (>128) characters.
PPPS: The packages I uploaded to my server have been signed with the
same gpg-key as this mail.
