Hi again,
from what I think is happening. GNU Smalltalk is dropped from the Lucid
release and my bug report did not help to get it back in time. Now with
the new release there is a new Debian package and Ubuntu has just had a
release which means that if we are lucky the Ubuntu folks will take the
new GNU Smalltalk package for the next release.
Regarding the abbreviation. NMU is a Non Maintainer Upload, it can be
used by Debian Developers to upload packages even if they are not the
maintainer of the package. Not being a Debian Developer myself I think
most of the time only Security uploads are NMU uploads.
kind regards
holger
