hurd source, and .deb problems...



Hi,

This may seem like a silly question, but where can I find the source
code to GNUMach and the Hurd servers?  I looked at
alpha.gnu.org/gnu/hurd/src/, but I didn't find anything that was dated
this year :|
A short note in one of the READMEs in the hurd deb recommended
recompiling the kernel, so I wanted to give that a try.

I am also having problems getting many of the .deb packages to
configure...I get the error:

dpkg (subprocess): Unable to execute post-installation script: Not a directory

I tried extracting the .deb, using dpkg-deb -x somedeb.deb somedeb,
but I couldn't find the pre- and post- installation scripts in the
resulting directory...

On another note, the Hurd is really neat.  Being able to just

settrans -c -a /home/levanti/my-dev-null /hurd/null

is just too cool.
