Oh, I like it. I haven't used it yet, but the idea is very nice, for GNU autoconf-ruled packages. I'll have more comments when I've stretched it's legs a little, but for now, I'd encourage all DD's (and other people who package) to have a look at it and give it a go. Hopefully at least a few people will take heed and make their packages build a little nicer. -- Matthew Palmer, Debian Developer [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.debian.org
