    provide information or something.
  * Changed search for .disk/info files that now takes place in the cd
    root directory as well as in the distribution top level directory.
  * Added preference to the location of .disk/info files.  The cd toplevel
    directory is now preferred but the distribution toplevel will also
    work.  This affects getdisklabel() and ismulti().

    information.  The description says to add all Packages.cd files on all
    cds.  If so the test is not needed anymore.

    available.  Hit enter or input 'none' to continue.

    use CDROM/.disk/info if it exists.

    nobody actually tried the one I've uploaded before.

    fvwm95 already being installed (enables automated builds)

gimp (1.0.2-2) frozen unstable; urgency=low
  * The gimp package no longer depends explicitly on xfnt{75,100}. I
    downgraded the relationship to a Recommends: and added big fat
    warnings in the README and in the package description.
    Fixes bugs #14600 and #21055. This has been changed because it's
    possible to run GIMP using a remote font server to serve the 75/100dpi
    fonts. However, it's really no big deal to ask for them to be installed
    locally, so the relationship should be Recommends:.
  * The above Recommends: has been changed to xfonts-{75,100}dpi, although
    it's pretty silly that their names were changed without adding a
    Provides:. *grumble*
  * Bumped the version number in the dependancy of gimp on gimp-data-extras
    to (>= 1:1.0.0).
  * libgimp-dev now conflicts with libglib-dev, so people don't try
    compiling plugins when they only have GTK+ 1.1 installed.
