Bug#3536 -- use LATEST package!

[joost@rulcmc.leidenuniv.nl (joost witteveen)]

This may be of interest to the rest of the m68k team too:

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE

Use the latest package when recompiling for the m68k.

I mailed announcements of uploading a new es package with
the m68k changes in to changes@lists.debian.org, and
to m68k@lists.debian.org, and still Yamboo (Who calls himself Yamboo?)
tries to rebuild es-0.84-2, and fileing a bugreport against this
old package. es-0.84-3 has been on master's incomming at least
since last wednesday, so I don't see a reason why
suddenly on satterday, I need to get a bugreport against
es-0.84-2, saying that it doens't compile on the m68k.

Do any of my emails get through to the m68k team?


Anyway, I *do* very much value your work on the m68k project --
just please make use of the work I do for you too.

I know, and that's why I uploaded es-0.84-3.
The changes file to that version explicitly mentiones the m68k
patches that I put in.


> +	dpkg --build debian-tmp && dpkg-name -o -s .. debian-tmp.deb

Hey, this part I don't understand. What's the "&&" good for?
If the dpkg --build fails, the make wil halt anyway.

I know this change has been suggested to debian-devel, but
I fail to see what it's good for (OK, the "-o" to dpkg-name
is a good addition to the previous patch).


Thanks.
