Mmm, the prep packages didn't contain anything, a bug in the
debian/rules i fixed, but it needs a new build, which will make it too
late for an upload today yet.
Anyway, i have uploaded the built packages to :
http://people.debian.org/~luther/powerpc/2.4.22-2
And it would be nice if people could test them, especially under pmacs.
It is less important on other arches, as they were not previously
supported, and so i can break no install there.
