You didn't notice that it /does/ cover alpha, hppa and the interestingly named "hppa~" architectures instead? ;-) Basically, it's still pointing at the britney1 output files, which haven't been updated in quite some time now - since July, in fact. I'll get it updated to use the britney2 files. [Also fwiw the above URL is a link to http://release.debian.org/britney/testing_outdate.txt , which is more canonical these days, given that ftp-master haven't run britney for a few years.] Regards, Adam -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
