-  The sidebar patchset was updated to NeoMutt's. The short path and divider
-  character options have been restored, but all configuration variables
-  have changed names as part of a general cleanup. Please see:

-mutt (1.5.22-1) unstable; urgency=low
-
-  The sidebar-dotted patch was replaced by the sidebar-dotpathsep patch from
-  Gentoo. This new version drops the "sidebar_shortpath" option from the
-  configuration. You can configure the behaviour with the
-  "sidebar_delim_chars" option now.

+mutt (1.6.2-1) unstable; urgency=medium
+
+  The mutt package now incorporates the NeoMutt patchset, which includes a
+  number of important security, performance and stability fixes. It also
+  includes a number of UI improvements and a plethora of new features,
+  including many previously shipped by Debian. Among these is the
+  functionality of both the mutt-patched (sidebar, NNTP) and the mutt-kz
+  (notmuch) packages, that are now both obsolete and replaced by the mutt
+  package. More information about NeoMutt can be found on its website:
+  http://www.neomutt.org/
+
+  The sidebar patch has been polished up and merged upstream in what will
+  eventually be Mutt 1.7.0. NeoMutt incorporates the new version, which among
+  other changes includes renamed configuration options. To keep the old
+  behavior, use this in your .muttrc:
+    set mail_check_stats=yes
+    set sidebar_format="%B%*  %S%?N?(%N)?%?F?[%F]?"
+    set sidebar_indent_string=" "
+  and optionally:
+    set sidebar_folder_indent=yes
+    set sidebar_short_path=yes
