I'm using SID $ apt-cache show arch; apt-cache show larch; apt-cache show tla Package: arch [snip] Description: transitional package This dummy package exists only to smooth upgrades to larch. It may be removed once the upgrade has completed. Package: larch [snip] Description: revision control system arch is a revision control system with features that are ideal for projects characterised by widely distributed development, concurrent support of multiple releases, and substantial amounts of development on branches. It can be a replacement for CVS and corrects many mis-features of that system. . larch is the implementation of arch in shell and C, by Tom Lord. . It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that you use tla instead of larch. This package is provided for backwards-compatibility purposes, since tla is not a drop-in replacement for larch.
