That sounds familiar. How about the following approach: we post to -devel saying "we need a place for Debian build tools to get common stuff, we propose the following file in ~ and the following syntax, and we propose that dgit contain the registry since devscripts maintainers don't want it". Open questios then are filename and syntax but maybe -devel can tell us what to use. Ian. -- Ian Jackson <ijack...@chiark.greenend.org.uk> These opinions are my own.
