Now that #506713 is closed, I have a couple of questions regarding the
process:
* The closing message mentions experimental; will the package be
available in lenny? If yes, will this happen automatically, or does
someone need to do something?
* When a newer compiler package is available for a distribution, is
everything rebuilt with it?
* Are the package versions of "everything" bumped? Their sources have
not been changed, but the binaries built with the (now fixed) compiler
have. How is it ensured that users get the new binaries?
I've looked into the Reference, the Policy Manual, the Developer's
Reference, the New Maintainer's Guide, and Google, but couldn't find
anything even about dak deployment on the Debian servers. I would be
very grateful if anyone could explain this or point me to the right docs
/ mailing list.
Thanks in advance,
