nedit (1:5.5-3ubuntu1) jaunty; urgency=low

  * Merge from debian unstable, remaining changes (LP: #299318):
    - Added build-dep to libxext-dev and libxp-dev.
  * debian/control: Replaced lesstif2 with libmotif-dev, because with Ubuntu's
    new lesstif2 version nedit doesn't work

-Maintainer: Debian QA Group <email address hidden>
+XSBC-Original-Maintainer: Alexandre Pineau <email address hidden>
+Maintainer: Ubuntu MOTU Developers <email address hidden>

and not like

-Maintainer: Debian QA Group <email address hidden>
+XSBC-Original-Maintainer: Debian QA Group <email address hidden>
+Maintainer: Ubuntu MOTU Developers <email address hidden>

Am I missing something in the policy?

After IRC review with Sarah Hobbs and Paul Gevers, this package appears not to need any merge, and a sync is preferred, as events of the past 18 months have made the Ubuntu changes unnecessary.

ACK for a sync.
