The "upstream" tarball was broken from the release branch, so I built it from the "minimakefile" branch, where the release code was fully rewritten in Lisp and debugged, instead of being a haphazard mix of Makefile, shell scripting and Lisp code with bits of perl. I believe the debian release script was built from the release branch, with a tiny commit to debian/rules as compared to the version tagged 3.1.5 upstream. In all cases, the asdf code itself is unchanged, but some of the build and packaging files have been tweaked.
The situation is therefore not perfect, even though everything in under source control. I'd hope for a new debian package maintainer to fix all those kinks; maybe have a separate git branch and/or repo. —♯ƒ • François-René ÐVB Rideau •Reflection&Cybernethics• http://fare.tunes.org The main reason Santa is so jolly is because he knows where all the bad girls live. _______________________________________________ pkg-common-lisp-devel mailing list pkg-common-lisp-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-common-lisp-devel
