Actually, far more useful than doc tweaks would be two important uploads which you are quite well placed to make: 0: As requested previously, *please* sort out the versions of multistrap and emdebian-crush (for xapt) in Ubuntu so that the next versions can migrate automatically. 1: It would be extremely useful to have a backport of the current versions of emdebian-crush and multistrap to Squeeze. I don't see much point backporting dpkg-cross because the backport is going to have to undo the change to the dependency on binutils-multiarch and then unpick of some of the MultiArch-aware behaviour. Now would be a good time to backport multistrap and emdebian-crush - before more changes are added to multistrap and xapt to cope with MultiArch being only half-implemented. I always wanted to only backport if I had had a call for updated translations for all the packages concerned but that isn't going to be possible because the MultiArch transition has already started. I've run out of time. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
