It's in patches-contrib, which means it is not used currently. Indeed, since the console repeaters have been introduced, this patch is obsolete and will get dropped for the next package. > mouse.patch > > Won't be applied. It is a hack.

Marcus argued that this patch does not make sense as long as the Hurd console is not started on bootup, IIRC. However, I believe he got convinced that this patch does not hurt either and makes things easier for users, so it should get resubmitted. > exec.patch > > Won't be applied, Debian specific since Debian uses a dirt old glibc. This one will get dropped with the next upload as well, as the hurd package builds fine without it. (and I believe there should be no run-time problems then, correct me if I'm wrong) Michael _______________________________________________ Bug-hurd mailing list Bug-hurd@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-hurd
