 Thanks. :)

 IMNSHO it isn't, and I did the plan for that. The release of wesnoth
1.8 and the release of lucid just did hit each other at the wrong time,
and I even had to fear that wesnoth 1.8 wouldn't get into lucid at all.
This is the best I was able to do in that short timegap.

 The unversioned package is in the works, see my blog about the
reasoning behind that move and the work plan - including hints on how
you can help to get there: <http://rhonda.deb.at/blog/debian/2010/06/09>

 Enjoy!
