Hi,

I'm afraid I have sad news for the boxbackup package in debian. I
recently noticed that I missed to get a maintainable package into debian
testing in-time, for details please see this thread:

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.release/39977

I understand that this might mean that the best course of action for
squeeze is to have the boxbackup binaries removed.

In order for stable users to use and install boxbackup conviniently, I'd
suggest to provide the packages on boxbackup.org. Would that be OK with
you? If yes, I would then update the packaging to the latest rc6
release and provide you with binaries, at least for i386.

BTW, just an idea, how about having the debian packaging in the svn
branch, so that development snapshot debian packages could be generated
easily?
