Hello all,
I am trying to package up kcdlabel, and am having a little trouble
getting the Build-Depends and Depends fields correct. I used the script
from the New Maintainer's Guide to get the Build-Depends, but it appears
to have not worked in quite the way I expected.
I get a list of Build-De

Hello all,
I am looking for any developers who live in the area of Philadelphia, PA

Hello all,
I am maintaining a package that fails to build on alpha, hppa, and s390.
It appears that the problem is that those architectures use gcc/g++-3.0,
rather than 2.95, as the default compiler. The source would need to be
modified (not hugely, perhaps) to compile with gcc/g++-3.0.
