Hi Adrian,

Thanks for that. I was reading up on this 'source only' uploads. In general I agree with the idea, however for cmucl when a new major version gets released the rebuilding of the new version using the old version is non-trivial and not automated.

So for major releases I do the rebuilding manually and then upload binaries+source. The binaries can rebuild the sources, but the old binaries cannot.

Is this setup still supported with the new rules or is this the last hurrah from the cmucl package?

Best regards, Peter
