The dmotif netscape packages seem to depend on lesstif, does this mean you can
run them with just lesstif? Or is that in addition to requiring real Motif
libraries? I'm surprised (but happily so) since i thought lesstif aimed only
at source-level compatibility not binary level.

I asked once earlier, but no one responded:
Does anyone know how PAM modules should be packaged?
Where should they be installed? Is there some way to register them, or some
script to run to offer the sysadmin the option of making the new module the
global default? Personally I think PAM modules
I already uploaded a fltk package.
BTW, this is why you're supposed to announce intention to package something
before working on it.
Incidentally, I just skipped form.h and glut.h, on the assumption that someone

Currently the version of glibc in frozen is older than the version in Slink.
Does this mean we plan to release Hamm with that prerelease of glibc?
Or are we planning on including 2.0.8 when it's released?
If we plan to include 2.0.8 we really ought to push the latest prerelease into

So as I see it there are at least three cases here:
The install is accidentally broken.
Because we've all been living without apt for so long, various
inconsistencies can arise. It would indeed be a great feature if apt offered
to fix the problems. Since there may be many ways of fixing th
You should just include the .el file, without bytecompiling, in
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp//
If there's code you want every user to run on startup.
you can create a file in

ideally it should only contain autoloads.

This package includes a pam module. How should it be packaged?
Currently lintian seems to treat it as a normal shared library
and complains about the symlinks being wrong.
