[(NON-)RELEASE NOTES] Re: Uploaded quake 1.09-1.30-2pre3 (source i386) to quake



Uploads "to quake" from me ...

* This was not uploaded to experimental or potato, it was uploaded to
  "quake", which is in http://www.debian.org/~knghtbrd  If someone has a
  real issue with these going to -devel-changes, I'll just send them to
  quake-maint.

* The packages in quake are possibly going to be newer than those in the
  archive.  Of the packages currently in the mini-archive, only pak/gtkpak
  have been uploaded to potato (of course they've been in incoming for
  weeks but they are a new package after all)


(non-)release notes for this version of quake packages ...

* They won't build from source.  The shlibs file uses the libfoo . depends
  format I proposed on -policy this morning.  Either we'll agree it's a
  good idea and I'll leave it or we'll argue about it forever and I'll
  make it do the depends the hard way if anybody else is building the
  package.

* ALL of the glquake packages require glide at the moment pending
  discussion of the new quake wrapper.

* I really would appreciate reports of success or failure of the glquake
  packages reported to quake-maint (not -devel-changes !) I think glquake
  can ge used X or console even though it claims to be a console thing,
  please try it out and let me know.
  
* glquake-glx will eventially not require glide at all and will be able to
  use libGL.so.1 like quake2/3 do.

* this will be the last release notes type message to -devel-changes, I
  just decided to send it there this time so people don't have to ask
  where to find the quake archive (since nobody manages to read all of
  -devel)
