Good news re: man-db
Short bit of good news :)
My patch for man-db was incorporated into the Debian patches for man-db,
so we should no longer see the "eqn/-Tlatin1" problem even if we compile
from debian-patched source. :)
More of my patches should be submitted soon. I'm slowly compiling
everything that the developers released recently that claims
glibc-friendliness to see if it loves Alphas too.
Oh, and I'm also recompiling the xfree86 stuff right now. It's taken the
better part of a day so far on my poor, underpowered UDB, so I hope that
there were no errors that need fixing :P I'm only compiling the basics
right now (servers and libs), but will probably move onto the other
programmes shortly. I only decided to do this AFTER learning that alot of
the other maintainers are, for some strange reason, orienting their
packages towards libc6 AND libc5-cross-compiling systems.....go figure.
Why they couldn't just move on up is beyond me :P
