The (hopefully finished) packages are available from http://www-users.york.ac.uk/~rl117/ijs/ Would anyone be willing to check if I have got the naming and dependencies right, or got anything else horribly wrong? One thing I'm not sure about are the Build-Depends. dpkg-genbuilddeps and 'dpkg-depcheck -b debian/rules build' both failed on my i386 (PIII) machine. Also, would anyone be willing to sponsor these packages while I am in the NM process? They are lintian-clean, and (I think) of good quality (though you might not like my auto-generation of debian/control!). I took out the postinst and postrm for libijs-0.34 after I found that debhelper now helpfully runs ldconfig for you (very nice!).
