This is an excellent example for a valid reason to have a ppa-alike service for Debian with a buildd network behind to not having everybody to build it's own (limited) buildd infrastructure like debmon.org and others. Having my old buildd up and keeping it running, I can tell you that maintaining everybody it's own is a huge wast of time and resources. Just my two cents, Jan. - -- Never write mail to <w...@spamfalle.info>, you have been warned! - -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.12 GIT d-- s+: a C+++ UL++++ P+ L+++ E--- W+++ N+++ o++ K++ w--- O M V- PS PE Y++ PGP++ t-- 5 X R tv- b+ DI D+ G++ e++ h---- r+++ y++++ - ------END GEEK CODE BLOCK------ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org iEYEARECAAYFAlK0MZwACgkQ9u6Dud+QFyQn4wCdF0ylfNpr77/JRZ435NbN4u9Q OpIAmwcI/L7uKlRYhr4/vhIrb7FXaltI =J4Qc -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
