Ok, this still hasn't been done :-\. Are uploads to Mainz still possible (and are they already automatically forwarded to master), or should I put them onto master directly myself, or should I just wait a little more? > PLEASE NOTE: From now on any upload _MUST_ be accompanied by a proper > debian.changes file please download the dchanges package and install it > (not yet available as m68k package - could somebody please fix that problem) Juergen already asked this, and I'd like to see some discussion about it. Should the changes files we produce only reflect differences relative to the corresponding "PC" packages? That would mean many packages don't require any changes at all, and for those that do require changes those changes should be sent to the corresponding PC maintainer to merge them into the generic sources - so in the long term these packages won't require any m68k specific changes either. So, I don't see any sense in doing this. Of course, the PC maintainers should not just get the diffs, but also a few lines stating what was necessary to make the packages compile and run on m68k. Those few lines should maybe already be written in the format of dchanges(5) so that they just cut&paste it into their changes files. But why m68k specific changes file? Frank (was a bit lazy throughout the last weeks, sorry)
