I could not find any tarball. There is no tag AFAIK. I simply assumed that there is no activity in the 4.3 branch to call it 4.3.0; the version is hardcoded in my get-orig-source.sh script. I added the get-orig-source target as par recommendation for a debian package. This make it simplier for other people to download serna. BTW I could not find a README.source file explaining the reason for antlr (I had to read the ITP bug for serna...) thanks -- Mathieu -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
