Libc6 progress: 1997-12-12
This is a list of packages in the main distribution that need work to
be fully libc6-based. I base it on the Packages file at my local mirror,
so it may be a day or two out of date. If you have questions about why
a particular package is on the list, or if you think there is an error,
don't hesitate to contact me.
Packages addressbook, cdwrite, cern-httpd, cgi-scripts, e2fsprogs,
lacheck, libpwdb0, lshell, net-acct, perforate, setcd, ucblogo,
whirlgif, xarclock, xbattle, and xpostitplus have been converted to
libc6.
Packages cfgtool, nat, and postgres95 have been removed from the
distribution. Package dbf2mysql has been moved to contrib. Package
j1 has been moved to non-free. Packages oonsoo, pari, and unarj have
been moved to non-free and converted to libc6.
There is a new smail version but it is still libc5.
Package xosview has been moved from contrib to main and has a new
maintainer, but it is still libc5.
I have removed comerr2, glut-dev, mesa-dev, and libpwdb-dev from the
list. These packages are obsolete because libc6 (or altdev) versions
of them exist, so they don't belong on a list of packages to convert
to libc6.
I merged in the information from the new Work-Needing document.
This leaves 117 packages in the list, with 6 upgrades on the way.
