Yeah, unfortunately I did not get around to figuring out what library
dependencies there were between opensm-related packages, so I didn't
upload anything.

However the freeze just means updates in unstable won't propagate to
testing/Wheezy; I think opensm is a pretty minor package that doesn't
affect much of the distribution, so I wouldn't have any problem
uploading a newer version.

Ana, any reason you don't want to upload your opensm work yourself, at
least to experimental?  I'm happy to do it, but I need to take the time
to carefully understand all the library dependencies, or have someone
else explain what needs to be coordinated.
