I also added Conflicts with 20, because some people might have installed that one from experimental, and the -utils package has to Conflict with the old -examples package. > > Therefore I decided to use Peter de Schrijver's and my own packaging as > > a basis for packaging 2.0.1.

Yes, that was unfortunate. Peter told me he isn't working with IIDC cameras anymore at the moment, which is probably the reason why he has been slow or unresponsive wrt. libdc1394. But as you know I've adopted the packages now. I'm working with IIDC cameras for a research project that will last for at least two more years, so I have an interest in keeping the packages up to date. > As I am part of the development process, I also thought that it will be nice > if we close the loop a bit and provide you, the maintainers from Debian, with > our idea of packages. Hope that it was helpful... Yes it was! > Let me know the continuatio... I just uploaded libdc1394-22 2.0.1-1 to unstable. It will hopefully be accepted in a few days. -- Met vriendelijke groet / with kind regards, Guus Sliepen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
