I guess he means transition of one of the build-depends or something. >>>> Also from the notes it seems the new version also takes the newer >>>> libraries which should improve things as well. >>> >>> Absolutely > That's the reason for the binNMU.

I've > twentyfive packages to make (ITPed) and more on my list. :( . Ok . Btw can I/we see the 25 or more packages you have ITPed ? I do have few I could suggest to add to that list. For e.g. see laidout - laidout.org There was even a lwn.net article on it sometime ago. lwn.net/Articles/392246/ Hopefully this is something you find interesting as well. I have been meaning to do an RFP for it but network issues (i.e. when reportbug tries to find all wnpp entries ) has been making the RFP impossible. > Laszlo/GCS -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com 065C 6D79 A68C E7EA 52B3 8D70 950D 53FB 729A 8B17 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
