Hi! Please Send any mail also directly to me if you're interested in my Input as I'm not reading -mentors regularly and pkg-common-lisp-devel@ is -- it appears -- not getting enough of my attention to see your messages in time.

For sbcl I do bootstrapping with a crossbuild from another architecture .. building just a non-packaged version and using that to bring up the package. Once there is a version in the archive everything works automatically. So ideally I can build the first package with a locally installed ccl (e.g. in /usr/local/bin, ..). sbcl's debian/rules has some magic now to do this (and the last commit is totally messed up :-( I guess bootstrapping only needs to be done once and later versions of ccl can be built using the version that is then included in Debian? > 3) My current package description for the package is > 4) Debian requires a copyright statement, which is located in the > "copyright" file in the repository.
