Comment 5 for bug 67488

I would like to respectfully request this bug be classified as high importance, with the hope that it will be addressed soon. The fact is that Putty is nearly useless without tunneling support, meaning the package is effectively broken. This bug, as identified here, is now well over a year old; and has probably existed since the original package was submitted. Putty is a popular and valuable application, and is well worth the effort to fix it. The package maintainer's consideration will be appreciated.
