Depends on what we want. Indian language printing is not
important, of course, if the Indian subcontinent does not belong
to the Debian target group.

Likewise, MATHML printing is not important if scientists and
students do not belong to the Debian target group.

I cannot test MATHML in e-mail messages easily. But printing
Indian languages is definitely broken in ape and dove.

Personally, I think fixing this (and fixing it quickly) should
take priority over considerations of a Debian release cycle. I
wasn't aware that Sid had "releases" anyway.

I just hope that Debian's "fork" policy (with the name changes)
has not made the whole patching process more difficult.. ;-)
