} compress belongs into non-free, not into devel! } Reason: Copyright-problems (Unisys-Patent) No. This package *is* free: it only allows one to build a compress binary package, which then will be distributable under Unisys conditions. BTW, I read in this list that the Unisys patent does not apply outside of the USA. Is this true? In this case, maybe someone in Europe can make a binary compress package available? Yves. --
