Please "sync" nepenthes 0.2.2-3 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)

You should include the debian changelog of the new version.

Now I see that this can't be synced - the package does not build...

It looks like a problem with GCC 4.3 :-) Report the bug to upstream authors.

It's not a problem with GCC, this is the warn_unused_result compiler flag, along with -Werror.

When we need to patch the package, perhaps we could add iptables-dev back to build-depends as our iptables-dev has a PIC version of libipq.a (Or more precisely had. I need to figure out why this changes was dropped in iptables again).

This bug was fixed in the package nepenthes - 0.2.2-3ubuntu1
