New Packages Uploaded
Hello,
I uploaded a bunch of packages to erlangen (soon in master).
* ae, cpio
Those are native builds and fix all open issues wrt /usr symlink.
We are /sur-link-problem-free now until we detect another glitch.
* binutils
A rebuild, natively. Still some problems in the source (gprof) and rules
file. Needs a bit work, esp. the HZ issue.
* diff, diffstat
Native rebuilds. diffstat is needed for lintian.
* dpkg, dpkg-hurd-dev
Those rock! All open problems fixed or worked around.
Cross compiled. dpkg is currently stuck somewhere in Germany. I hope it
will not be delayed too much.
* flex
Native rebuild. It's so much fun to do it now :)
* fortunes
They work now, actually. Bug submitted. Don't hard code access mode in
open() call. Native build.
* glibc 2.2.1
Heya! You all waited for this one. All packages I mention here are built
with it. It's great.
* gettext, groff, gzip
Native rebuild, directly from the debian source.
* libdb2
You need it for man-db, but it didn't build cleanly from scratch yet. Well,
it did after copying /include/_G_config.h from Linux (why is it missing?),
but interrupted because it needs libc_p, which I hadn't installed. Get the
package from alpha.gnu.org
* man-db
Read man pages with groff, libdb2 and man-db now! Try both, TERM=mach and
TERM=mach-bold (although the naming is confusing here)
* sed, tar
No comment. They just built.
* shellutils
Built it, fixed the packaging script, done NMU, filed bug. Rather simple.
Does not include "su" this time.
* hurd
That's on alpha. Why? because I messed up with the md5sums, they don't
match. So paranoid Debian wouldn't install them. I will rebuild and upload
later this week.
* cross-install & co.
Uploaded new versions, which you need. Get them!
ARGH! I just noticed they are *slightly* broken.
It should not install the timezones package. FIxed. Reuploaded. Phew.
Future plan:
* egcs and co.
* exim, sendmail
* e2fsprogs
Thanks,
Marcus
