I recommended to integrate a single valuable patch to the Debian version.

Let me hope that you do not use the current r71 trunk version as 0.92.2 
 - with r61 we started Xerxes XML integration, with r71 we started 
switching to XML. Even though we provide upgrade functionality from the 
official 0.92 and earlier releases concerning options, scores and levels 
there is no and there will be no upgrade functionality between different 
trunk development releases!!

I can not recommend using any trunk revision >70 for playing Enigma. You 
may loose all scorings you achieve with these versions!

Nevertheless we are thankfull for any reports from trunk-revision 
testers - you can play the official release and test the trunk in 
parallel without the danger of loss of data. (Of course you have to use 
different install prefixes for Unix - /usr/local and /home/sweethome f.e.).

I scheduled the swedish translation when examinig 0.92.1. Sorry, the 
level specific topics are currently of low priority as we started 
fundamental code cleanups, updates and technology additions. We 
currently do not have the manpower to provide a separate 
0.92-maintainance repository branch. The fixes will end up anytime on 
the trunk and may be not back portable to 0.92.
