I just installed 0.93R6 base system. Everything seemed to go well.
When I tried 'adduser', it failed with the message
bash: /usr/bin/perl : cannot execute binary file
dpkg complained too when I tried installing vim.

Here's the script I use to check the presence and format of packages'
extended descriptions.
Would anyone like to take over maintaining it, running it, and
reporting bad or missing descriptions as bugs ?
Ian.

I forgot to say that I *didn't* edit README.DEBIAN.
Ian M., can you do that ?

Jeff Noxon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> is taking over the miscutils package.
The ones I still have available are:
mount - a few outstanding bug reports.
procmail - track the upstream maintainer.
rspfd - For radio hams only. Track the upstream maintainer.
setserial - Track the upstream maintainer.

I am trying to wrap a new version of the miscutils package for ELF.
It depends on ncurses, however, and I can't find debianized ncurses
libs that work with the stuff in debian-1.0.
Also, the ELF ncurses in the experimental directory seems to use
the wrong soname.
Is anyone working on this?
Thank

Considering that 0.93 is considered the stable release, and considering
the user confusion that's been seen between 0.93 packages and the
elf packeages, does it make sense to be announcing elf package
uploads to debian-changes?

The package installs a /usr/lib/texmf/dvips/config.ps file that is
setup for A4 paper. Please take pity on the small minority of debian
users in the US and give us the install-time option of using "US
Letter" size instead.
