Take the public domain part and put it in one package. Take the

I said it as context for the following:
Contact the author and ask them to issue the following more-legaly-correct

I just noticed that adduser 3.1 doesn't work together with NIS, a proper bug
report is submitted. I just mention this here again since it might be relevant
for the release of Debian 1.3.

2.0.29 is the proper kernel unless Herbert can assure us that he has fixed
all known bugs especially in relationship to networking.

Is libc 6 (aka glibc) the official C library for hamm? If so when should we
start reporting bugs against incompatibilities? I know it takes some time
until most maintainers are able to develop with libc6, but we should take
care of these problems early on before we lose track of them.
So far I kno

Well, please at least wait untill all libraries are compiled for libc6.
At the moment, gs won't compile on my system cause I've had to remove

I just thought about bug-reporting to keep track of all missing
incompatibilities. Also I do not have a problem with a binary still
using libc5, but only with system function (like logging in utmp) not
working because one package uses libc5 and another libc6.
BTW why didn't you remove libc5-dev wi

nope, recent versions of xbase aren't any better about shadow support,
because
1) there's nothing in the programmers guide even mentioning it
2) the xdm shadow support doesn't fall back in any sane way,
and it's more than just dropping a check -- a bunch of code needs
rearrangement.
