Sounds great. BTW, Do you believe we should include in -30 the following=20
changes I did (in the experimental branch) to the postinst:
http://cvs.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/john/debian/postinst.diff?r=
1=3D1.4&r2=3D1.4.2.1&cvsroot=3Dpkg-john&only_with_tag=3Ddevel
and the README.wordlist:
http://cvs.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/john/debian/README.wordlist=
s.diff?r1=3D1.1&r2=3D1.1.2.1&cvsroot=3Dpkg-john&only_with_tag=3Ddevel

These changes were done because of Solar's concern about using user's=20
wordlists based on dictionary words. The change merge the user's wordlist=
=20
with the password.lst file provided in john and drops this as a wordlist=20
under /etc/john/ so the user can customise at will.

Thus, users selecting dictionaries which are close to their mother language=
=20
will always still have the default password list provided by john...

Javier
