Hello, ... I am packaging the ocaml language and some related libraries.
There was a new release lately, which i packaged, but was somewhat buggy, and now i wish i had released it first into experimental (like gnome2 does) or a staging area (like perl does), since i cannot easily take it out of unstable (unless using epoch or 3.05_is_in_truth_3.04 versions) and its presence in unstable hinders upload of 3.04 related libraries. (Well, it is not all that problematic, since by end of the month, upstream will fix all problems, and make a new release). So i would like to know, which of the gnome approach (uploading to experimental) or the perl approach (using a staging area) is better or more recomended, and also if there is some documentation available on building a staging area. I suppose the advantage of experimental is that it is mirrored, while the staging area is not and that to build a staging area, i need some kind of copy of the dinstall scripts or something such and run them on a private subdirectory somewhere ? Any help or hint to information would be welcome. Friendly, Sven Luther -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
