Wow, thank you very much Alain! I am glad to see that upstream has accepted so many of these patches. > >From erwan.adam@cea.fr Mon Apr 4 16:53:09 2011 > Date: Mon, 04 Apr 2011 16:53:00 +0200[B > From: Erwan ADAM <erwan.adam@cea.fr> > To: alain.leufroy@logilab.fr > Cc: BERGEAUD Vincent <vincent.bergeaud@cea.fr>, Vincent LEFEBVRE <vincent.lefebvre@edf.fr>, Nicolas Chauvat <nico@logilab.fr>, Andre Espaze <dede@logilab.fr>, alain@logilab.fr > Subject: Re: patches Salome 5.14 > > Bonjour, > > Votre contribution concernant la compilation > des paquets debian de salome 5.1.4 a été analysée, > mergée dans la branche V5 et mergée dans la > branche V6. > > Les prochaines versions de salome contiendront > donc ces modifications : > o 6.3.0 prévue mi mai 2011 > o 5.1.6 prévue fin juin 2011 > > Merci encore, > > E.

Merci beaucoup encore Alain, this is terrific news. It will take a little bit of work to forward-port what's left, and I'll try to make some time in the next couple of weeks to make this happen. That said, this will make it much easier to maintain the Debian Salomé package going forward. I am glad that we have a channel to work with upstream on making Debian and its derivatives first-class platforms for running this first-class engineering software suite! -Adam -- GPG fingerprint: D54D 1AEE B11C CE9B A02B C5DD 526F 01E8 564E E4B6 Engineering consulting with open source tools http://www.opennovation.com/
