You are definitely behind the times. You do not have to repack
the upstream in order to fix the dir name. Havfen't had to do that
for years.

I notice you maintain a number of packages; perhaps you had
better check and undo any repacking you may be doing. I am surprised
you missed out on the pristine source recommendation.

HOW TO PROVE IT, PART 4 proof by personal communication:
'Eight-dimensional colored cycle stripping is NP-complete [Karp,
personal communication].' proof by reduction to the wrong problem:
'To see that infinite-dimensional colored cycle stripping is
decidable, we reduce it to the halting problem.' proof by reference
to inaccessible literature: The author cites a simple corollary of a
theorem to be found in a privately circulated memoir of the Slovenian
Philological Society, 1883. proof by importance: A large body of
useful consequences all follow from the proposition in question.
