Hi Bruno, Looks like neither Gary nor I scrupulously track all that stuff and it takes time for the word to get around. Sorry. Since I thought I was inventing version numbers, I chose to dot the year/month/day fields for readability. I notice that your gnulib drops drop the dots: http://erislabs.net/ianb/projects/gnulib/gnulib-20100829-stable.tar.gz I'd prefer having the dots, but prefer still more in consistency, so I leave the choice to you. May I push the script as it can have no effect without someone explicitly running it? Attached is another copy, different from the last only in that datarootdir was added to the generate-libtool.pc-script. Cheers - Bruce
