I've uploaded the package to unstable right now, with some other
trivial changes (Standards-Version, new debconf translation.) I
set urgency=medium, because it's the right urgency for these
changes, but feel free to age it once the autobuilders are done
with it if you want to have glibc migrate earlier, because the
changes to open-iscsi are completely trivial.

Christian
