[Pkg-blender-maintainers] Blender 2.45 backport for etch

[Florian Ernst]

Hello Norbert, hello Alexander, hello Blender maintainers,

I concur that uploading an up-to-date blender to backports as reasoned
below by Cyril is a fine idea.

Please add my key 514B3E7C as present on various keyservers, including
<http://db.debian.org/fetchkey.cgi?fingerprint=34F879978BC103F09C43F3D7B3753E4D514B3E7C>
to the keyring of backports.org so I can perform the upload.

TIA and cheers,
Flo
