Indeed, there is no g77 dummy transitional package in lenny to help
users to upgrade to gfortran.
-> Is that still feasible to create one for lenny ?

We also missed that in release-notes as well.
The "Why ?" section at http://wiki.debian.org/GfortranTransition could
be linked from the Lenny RN (but I wonder in which section of RN it
would have its place).

Regards.
