Comparing all binaries with debdiff, I'm seeing the expected l10n-related changes, plus a version variation related to version (strict dependencies) or a few bytes in Installed-Size. Actual contents, once extracted in a subdirectory (e.g. with `for x in *deb; do dpkg -x $x root; done`), look entirely identical. That means I would feel comfortable with hurrying it up into testing; I'm still happily taking second opinions here. :) In passing, console-setup looks like its whole build system could do with some serious facelift, and there are a number of things reported by lintian as well (including errors); but I'll stick to my end goal for the moment: getting a new alpha out the door. :) Cheers, -- Cyril Brulebois (kibi@debian.org) <https://debamax.com/> D-I release manager -- Release team member -- Freelance Consultant
