w.d.o/devel/website/using-cvs points you to http://people.debian.org/~joey/misc/webwml.html (I wonder why that is not on the website instead of in p.d.o).

Actually it's http://db.debian.org/debian-admin/wanna-build_2004.09.06.tar.gz However the changelog says: wanna-build (2004.09.06) unstable; urgency=high * Initial non-release.

They are somewhat different (configuration files are located in different places) and Roger Leigh's version does provide manual pages for all of the buildd commands (wanna-build, wanna-build-mail, wanna-build-statistics, wanna-build-update...). Also, the version at db.debian.org provides some functionality that is missing in Roger's (like a 'clean-db' call to wanna-build). However, I'm not sure if the security fix that was recently introduced was included in those packages... It looks like it was not, is this it: - if (!/^(\S+)\s*(\(\s*(>>|>=)\s*(\S+)\s*\))?\s*$/) { + if (!/^(\S+)\s*(\(\s*([<=>]+)\s*(\S+)\s*\))?\s*$/) { return 0 if $verify; - warn( "parse_deplist: bad dependency $_\n" ); + logger( "parse_deplist: bad dependency $_\n" ); next; } These forks are really messy :-( Regards.
