I have some 4.0 packages prepared and I plan to upload them in the next day or so as soon as I'm sure I updated everything properly (there were some big changes in the 3.x->4.x transition which make at least one package go from arch: all to arch: any; I also want to make sure I got all the dependencies right so a mixed 3.x/4.x installation can't happen but full upgrades will work). I have a RL project I need to finish this afternoon and then I should be able to square away foomatic.
