you noticed, that you pushed yet another version of phpMyAdmin with a *.swf
file that is somehow "proprietary" because we do not build the *.swf from
source? I as the package maintainer of phpMyAdmin would have expected that
you also are getting in touch with me at all - I can not find any e-mail in
my mailbox from you... :-(

Anyway, thank you for solving this security issue. And also thank you that
you were the guy uploading and building package - after all the package
owners/maintainers were noticed about *.swf files in their packages... ;-)

On the other hand, I would like to ask you to revisit e.g. RHBZ#959946 [1]
before asking others to step up as maintainers for phpMyAdmin. So there is
enough work left, before any other (especially non-security) phpMyAdmin
update should happen.
