Hello Jerome, What version of GAP are you using ? I assume it is not 4r8p3-2. Removing debian/patches/fix-compressed-six-files will cause the GAP packages to FTBFS, so this is not possible. Please explain how I can reproduce the problem, so I can fix the patch. Cheers, -- Bill. <ballo...@debian.org> Imagine a large red swirl here.
