Ok, that makes sense.

Good idea. It turns out some of the gnade data types have been wrong for a while (ie, they don't match libmysqlclient15, either). I'll generate a patch for the Debian release, and submit the changes upstream. And do the same check for the other gnade imports (sigh). -- -- Stephe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
