Re: [Monotone-debian] Fwd: Re: Bug#640638: libbotan-1.8.2: Outdated binary packages in unstable

[Richard Levitte]

I'm coming to the conclusion that we need to rebuild the monotone
package, with a dependency on libbotan-1.8.13 instead of
libbotan-1.8.2.

Cheers,
Richard ( who's been lazy about this... )
