Hi Karl,

I too would very much like to see c-ares available on Debian, I am part
of the group trying to get the Secondlife client into Debian and c-ares
is now a dependency that we need.

If you don't want to replace ares with c-ares is it perhaps possible to
get a c-ares package into Debian as well. The only actual conflict is
the ares.h header file in /usr/include, what do you think?

If you think this is the route to go I will file a ITP against WNPP and
i can even package up c-ares and upload it to mentors. Of cause if you
would like to package it yourself then please do so :-) If you would
like me to continue would you then consider sponsoring the package as it
is very related to the existing libares0.

Many thanks for your help

Robin Cornelius
