Bug Description

This is a feature freeze exception request for a new package kfritz 0.0.4 (Universe)

Kfritz is a KDE program for users of AVMs Fritz!Box to get call signaling and other functions.

So far kfritz is not in the archive. We started to package it some time ago, but did not manage to solve all problems before feature freeze. Upstream had to change some things to make this distributable for Ubuntu and I had to improve the package, so we missed the deadline.

The issues are all solved and the package is on REVU with ack of two MOTUs:
http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/kfritz

During the packaging process I did a lot of testing and had no problems except for one bug, which was fixed by upstream quite some time ago.
Kfritz is a simple and small KDE application and does not open any ports or install kernel modules, so the risk should be very low.
It is well maintained and the connection to it's upstream author is very good.

The application would be a nice addition for our next release and is very useful for all users who have a Fritz!Box. It would be sad, if all the work that was done in the past few weeks would be useless for this cycle.

Buildlog is attached, please let me know, if you need further information.
