Subject: Well, I'm done... Who's next?

I've uploaded all the packages I have ready, so who ever is next...

Does someone else have an ldso-1.7.14-4?  Mine works just just fine, but I 
had to make quite a few changes to the debian.preinst script since it 
included an i386 binary.  I will be sending my patches to the maintainer 
'cause the 1.8.0 version has the same "problem". 

Anyway, I sure hope they are all correct!!!  PLEASE, mail me if you find 
problems.

Thanks,

Leland Lucius

Hi,

> I've uploaded all the packages I have ready, so who ever is next...

Checking.. *WOW*. Ugh. Lots. :-)

Ok, funny thing is just today I finally compiled part of 'my' packages
and made them ready for upload (bdflush, debianutils, kbd, loginutils),
but now I see I was too slow. :-}

Ok, now I'll have to finish util-linux, I guess..

> Anyway, I sure hope they are all correct!!!  PLEASE, mail me if you find 

Will do so. But first I'll have to wait that they get assorted on master
and mirrored around the world (I won't try to get them all from master).

Well done so far,
Frank

Please do... I looked at getting it to work, but I was uncomfortable with 
the number of changes required.

hartmut? lets show your 230 packages... ;-))
please look at the incoming before you upload anything.
i'm sure there are some conflicts... ;-)

please do so. i've once uploaded the ldso and looked at the -4, but
the hack with the binary in the ldso preinst script (to test if elf
is running) is really a bad hack. please ask the maintainer to talk
with Ian Jackson (maintainer of dpkg) for a solution of this (there
was a similar test in the preinst of dpkg!). 

maybe there should be a completely different preinst for m68k, 
maybe the tests for an elf system can be skipped now that the 
full-elf 1.1 release is out.

thanks,
jjm
