yep, +1, you're right. But! (unfortunatly it always come to ab
"but!.." ;) I'm definetly blocked up to next week end. So please live
with it up to then and I (and Gerrit) will provide you *hopefully* a
fixed apache (fixing the connection hanging problem) *and* the rebase
inside the package thing.
Sorry all for the inconvinience.
