True. These are not part of Debian itself though which is why I usually
forget to check package versions over there.

Right, that would be a nice replacement to svga support. I am looking
into it.
Thanks

Hi *,
Just wanted to ask if anybody is still using the libsvga support of the
Debian GS packages. I really would like to get rid of that ugly hack
and if nobody speaks up one of the next uploads will have svga support
removed.
Comments?

I am sure he will. Thanks for sending me a copy. This information was very
interesting for me...
BTW: Is there an easy way to find out who is maintaining a port for FreeBSD?
I mean to find the maintainer of gs, for example, you can go to
http://packages.debian.org/gs, click on the

them without).

ssor will handle this without looping. The old code lookup
up "FOO", found "FOO" as value, looked up "FOO" ad nauseum. The patch just
checks if the macro is defined as itself and breaks the loop in that case.

Why? All you need to run programs that require libm.so is in libc6 (which is
in base). You might need libc5 for old programs and you will need libc[56]-dev
for development.
