Except that this means the old source packages can't stay around in the archive, since libglut-dev is generated by both old and new. This makes transitions more difficult: libglut3 and libglut4 could still coexist on users' systems, but they could not both be in a distribution at the same time. -- Colin Watson [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
