The packages that were in Incoming last night that should also have gone
into frozen will be taken care of, if my scheme works :-) I copied the
debs and the changes files into my home, sucked the changes over to my
machine, and hacked a script to change "unstable" into "frozen" and
resign the changes. I've put a couple of packages back into Incoming to
test whether this will work (we'll know tonight whether I did it right).
For the other already installed packages: I'd need the original changes
files; I guess I could pull those out of Incoming/DONE, find the debs,
rename them... Sounds like a lot of work, but still less than building
them packages by hand :-)
