My current version built fine on stable and unstable (I think) when I last tried (against openmotif). It just requires me to make another effort to get the result uploaded, and I'm afraid I've been lacking time/enthusiasm. I'd have to look up where the official Debian repo is, but my current version of the packaging to merge in is at http://arc.liv.ac.uk/repos/darcs/gridengine.debian/ (with a .git sub-directory). Actually, it _would_ be current if I pushed changes for the latest SGE release. I'll do so when I get a chance. Uploading help might be useful, thanks. I'll try to find some time to look at it again. (There are some serious problems with the current packaging, including security issues, apart from library dependencies.) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
