Done, I have rebuild the libcares source package as c-ares and this now generates the packages libcares2 and libcares-dev (soname has gone to 2 as its a new upstream version with API and ABI breakage). I just managed to get the missing copyright headers included upstream as well before the new release. So it think that is now all the issues you raised with the package dealt with. The package can be found on mentors.debian.net: - URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/c-ares - Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main contrib non-free - dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/c-ares/c-ares_1.5.1-1.dsc Many thanks Robin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
