There were a couple of (fairly minor) issues with this release relating
to unnecessary transitive linking and syntax errors in the French
manpages.  I've fixed these and released 1.6.8.  This is now free of
warnings and lintian-clean.

This should hopefully be the last 1.6 release.  I'd like to get the
next 1.7 release into unstable, but that's waiting on the toolchain
for all arches to be updated to GCC 4.8 since it requires C++11
support.  I could explicitly depend upon it, but I'd prefer not to.
As I fix open bugs in 1.7, I might backport them to 1.6 and make
another release if needed.


Regards,
Roger
