Oh, yeah, that's right, debian/rules is required to be a makefile now. Yeah, I don't think the lintian probe would be too hard. I just don't know how this sort of change fits into the policy process. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
