I am raising the severity of this bug report to serious, such that the bug
will become RC and we have a chance of getting it fixed in etch.  

The funcionalities of the jedstate package have been superseded by the
gdbmrecent module included in the jed-extra package.  Besides that, the
jedstate package has been orphaned half a year ago and there is no sign of
upstream activity since ages.

Instead of simply requesting the removal of jedstate from the Debian
distribution, the Debian JED Group [1] will adopt the package and transform
it into a transition package to allow users migrate from jedstate to
gdbmrecent.
