I took the repo at https://anonscm.debian.org/git/collab-maint/global.git/ (Which volker had updated to 6.3.2)
And updated to global 6.5.5. The packaging there applied almost as-is. Patch 0001-Debianisation-of-htags.patch is no longer needed (upstream fixed their perl paths) patch 0003-Fix-gtags.el-to-not-use-goto-line.patch needs a refresh. dch, and add the missing emacs dependency on emacsen-common and you are done. This makes no changes to cgi scripts and Ron's htmake patch, which probably should be done, but despite endless verbiage in #841294, I haven't actually actually understood what's wrong with upstream as supplied. Or whether https://anonscm.debian.org/git/collab-maint/global.git/tree/debian/patches/0002-Introduce-htmake-for-global.patch is still OK to use as-is (I assume it needs some adjustment) For my purposes that part is not relevant. If I knew how to drive git-based packaging I'd upload this to the repo, but I don't (and don't seem to have permissions anyway), so you can get it here instead (for a while): http://wookware.org/software/global_6.5.5-1.dsc Wookey -- Principal hats: Linaro, Debian, Wookware, ARM http://wookware.org/
