It only exists in experimental - packages in experimental *might* be autobuilt but the only way to be sure is to get the package in a fit state for unstable. > So I looked at the build logs and they > (almost) fail in a quite strange way.

It looks more like a feature of experimental, most of the logs I saw include this error: libglib2.0-dev: Depends: libglib2.0-0 (= 2.14.6-1) but 2.15.5-1 is to be installed i.e. one of your dependencies is also in experimental and therefore builds of your package try to use this experimental version which then fails because experimental is not a complete distribution. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.data-freedom.org/ http://www.nosoftwarepatents.com/ http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
