newer one thanks purely to the fragile sort order directory inspection.
That has changed now thanks to last week's problems.
People are complaining about getting out-of-date versions of libtool.
Maybe I'll figure out the intent two seconds after sending this message
but I can't see any reason to have two packages with identical names in
the release so I have deleted the _obsolete/libtool packages.
Looks like even error-checking for upset is in order.
Two more culprits.
I don't understand why these duplicate named directories and setup.hints
were created. Package names are supposed to be unique so it was
basically luck (and an upset bug) that the _obsolete directories were
quietly overridden before.
I've removed _obsolete/apr1 and _obsolete/aprutil1.
apr1 and aprutil1 packages are supposed to be in the _obsolete category.
The other packages should be in libapr1 and libaprutil1.
