Debian sid has claws-mail 3.9.2-1 while Ubuntu Saucy has claws-mail 3.8.1-2.
I am experimenting with a straight sync from Debian and thought that other
Claws users might also want to test out the new package before I upload it to
the archive.

I have just uploaded the sid version to my PPA (ppa:barry/experimental) and
will run with it locally once it's built. I would love it if you could also
try it out and let me know if you run into any problems.

A few things to note:

Previous to 3.9.2-1 there was a separate source package for the plugins,
called claws-mail-extra-plugins, which contained a slew of binary packages.
With 3.9.2-1, the c-m-e-p source package has been folded back into the
claws-mail source package. With the new version, there will be only one
source package and we can get rid of claws-mail-extra-plugins source package
in Saucy. I'm not sure if something special needs to be done to make that
happen.

AFAICT, three plugins no longer exist: claws-mail-html2-viewer,
claws-mail-themes, and claws-mail-trayicon.

Please let me know if you have any problems. If I don't see any issues with
my own daily use, I'll probably upload the new package on Monday.
