I probably was. > Have you even opened the link in my email? No. > If the licence changed upstream between 3.67 and 3.77, why not switch to > the new upstream? http://www.debian.org/social_contract requires complete source code. tth_C.tgz version 3.80 is missing the lex source code for some incomprehensible tables in tth.c. tth.c is compilable but only the upstream author Ian Hutchinson can correct errors or add features. I have emailed the upstream author requesting the lex source code and for now he is not going to make the lex source code freely available. Without complete source code package tth remains non-free. > -- > Experience with Asset Control an asset. > -- Regards, Ian Maclaine-cross <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> GnuPG key fingerprint = 5F7A 7539 EA0D F4B4 95D3 0D22 A8BB B366 1D1D FB53 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
