I do not remember exactly, maybe it was not mature enough when gettext 0.14.1 was released in February 2004. Currently, pnet exists for 10 of our 11 architectures, which is probably good enough to be considered, but I would have to conditionalize the dependencies as well.

Oops, my current test packages are created with gcj present, but they do not depend on libgcj. It seems that I forgot two important things: * Really put gnu.gettext.GetURL in the package (!). * Run dpkg-shlibdeps on it. Perhaps I was reading the PACKAGING file in verbatim mode. Would be possible to say something about gnu.gettext.GetURL somewhere in the PACKAGING file? Thanks a lot. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
