Hi Sebastien,

Eager to understand, I've got some questions.

So the fix was committed in the straw projects's svn. Does the fact that 
the bug was reported in ubuntu and the availability of a patch speak for 
a new ubuntu package built?

In presuming yes:
Is it better to download the latest svn revision and package that up or 
should the ubuntu package be patched with the upstream patch?
Say we don't wait for a new upstream release and just download the 
current svn state, what should the package be named like?
Why does the latest published feisty package have this weird name: 
0.26.dsfg.1-2.1ubuntu1? (what does dsfg stand for?)

On the launchpad source package page [1], the tab on the left "Builds of 
straw..." I can only see an i368 build. Is it not available for the 
other architectures?

beginner questions, but this real world example could give me the push 
to actually commit some time.

Thanks.
