Bug#325306: New packages of ROOT



Hi all, 

I've made some new packages of ROOT.  The are available from 

	deb http://mirror.phy.bnl.gov/debian-root unstable main 
	deb-src http://mirror.phy.bnl.gov/debian-root unstable main 

Binary packages for i386 and powerpc are available.  Contributed builds
are welcome. 

- IMPORTANT NOTICE - IMPORTANT NOTICE - IMPORTANT NOTICE - 

Note, that some of the package names have changed, in particular 

        root-bin                -> root-system-bin
        root-doc                -> root-system-doc
        root-rootd              -> root-system-rootd
        root-xrootd             -> root-system-xrootd
        root-proofd             -> root-system-proofd
        root-common             -> root-system-common

and I have taken _no_ provisions to make this update smooth.  Hence you
should completely de-install previous (pre 5.15.07-2) packages before
installing the new ones.  If not, you will get all sorts of conflicts
with overriden files, etc.  You have been warned. 

The name change was done in an effort to make packages that complies
with the Debian FTP masters naming policy.  These packages are target
for the `experimental' distribution and it is our hope that they will be
accepted soon into that distribution.  

Yours,

--
