Good - thanks for your help! Will see what I can do. Will be on VAC for the next 2 weeks. Will probably continue Debian duties, but won't have access to a powerpcspe during this time. Will get back when I have packages ready. Can you please try to not further automatically decrease the number of available powerpcspe packages during this time? :-) Thanks in advance, Roland -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-powerpc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
