Sorry, I'been quite busy for a few weeks, and had tons of email without
opening.

I have no problem with Ruben taking up the package, although I personally don't
like to use macros for obvious commands.

The reason that actually did stopped this review was basically the one from
comment 8 from Ralf Corsepius, as well as comment 9.

That two lines patch was intended to clean the circular dependency on
debmirror.conf, exactly the same that Ruben cleaned with the block starting at
# filter file dependency on debmirror.conf

If the patch (which I believe much cleaner) is not acceptable, I don't see why
this other way is. (just in case, the patch only prevents debmirror.conf to be
detected as dependency, and if the file is there it is still read)

Regarding the current developement, it is basically dead. According to debian
information pages, the current maintainer of the package is Goswin von
Brederlow, also listed as current author, but the email does not currently
work.
So there is no chance on including the patch in upstream version, as suggested
on comment 13.
