Debian "Sarge" has frozen without 2.3.1



Hi everyone,

Debian as of today has frozen the testing tree in preparation for the
release of "Sarge" by the end of this month.

Release update: editorial changes to the testing propagation scripts
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2005/05/msg00001.html

Unfortunately, Balsa 2.3.1 was released too late to make the cut, and
what this means is that Debian will be released with 2.3.0. Debian's
release policy (see above email) means that the release managers will
highly likely refuse any appeal I make having 2.3.1 propogate through at
this late stage. Realistically, I can only patch the 2.3.0 codebase.

Apart from #306553 (http://bugs.debian.org/balsa) which causes external
addressbooks to segfault Balsa, are there any other bug fixes from 2.3.0
to 2.3.1 that are considered essential enough for me to backport?
Remember that these fixes have to be minimal and do not add new
features, so those new IMAP tweaks will have to be excluded.

Which files do I have to backport to fix:
    - Better handling of non-(ASCII/UTF-8) text/plain attachments.
      (closes: #278780)

Albrecht: Are any of the changes you've made below to gmime/gpgme that
are essential?

Cheers,
Andrew "Netsnipe" Lau
