Re: Bug#95769: grace-note breakage in 1.3.150

[Anthony Fok]

Hello Daniel,

If you want bugs like these get fixed, please send such report directly
to the address@hidden or address@hidden mailing list.
I only do the packaging.  I don't do LilyPond's C++ programming. 
Sending such upstream bug report to the Debian Bug Tracking System
would most likely only slow things down especially when I am away.  ;-)

Now, if the bug is a packaging bug that is Debian specific, then use
the Debian Bug Tracking System.  Thanks for your consideration.

Anyhow, I have forwarded your bug report to address@hidden
_this_ time.  :-)

Cheers,

Anthony
