Re: lprng_2.3.12 released (experimental)

The old lpr package had some facility for invoking ghostscript on PS files; this new package doesn't provide this. The old method still required manual entries to /etc/filter.* ; IMHO the automatic conversion is magicfilter's job. (I could add a Recommends: magicfilter) A Suggests:

Hello, Finally I have had some time again to work on the Alpha port. Sorry for everybody I've kept waiting, but it was a good thing as part of the libc interface has changed and a lot of stuff had to be rebuilt again. One of the things that has changed is that "crypt()" is now not part of glibc

Bug#4618: lyx libraries have wrong permissions
