I've started to work on this, asking help on various channels when needed. I've replaced the form() and vform() with code that compiles, but I hit other problems so I could not test yet. This is near the top of my todo-list, but I lack time, and my lack of recent practical experience of C++ makes the task tedious and long. > At the moment, the version of xdelta2 in testing depends on libdb3++, > which has been removed in unstable in favour of libdb3++c102.

Hm, I had not payed attention to this point. This raises the priority of the item :| > If it's going to be a while until a fixed xdelta2 is available, then > perhaps we should temporarily drop xdelta2 from testing and let it back > in once it's fixed. Anthony, what do you think? There are a couple of RC bugs on xdelta2 anyway, and they affect testing as well, so it is possible to drop it from testing I guess. But I'd definitely appreciate any help :) -- Yann Dirson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | Why make M$-Bill richer & richer ?
