It may be a little hard to do the selective replace - some manual pages have changed and so has the website. My guess is that building from scratch is easier. > I assume it is going to be the latter.

I'll diff the expanded trees of 1.5.3-1 and 1.5.4 and post the results so everybody can have a look. > and hence my +0 for proceeding with a release without a beta. In a sense 1.5.3-1 is the beta of 1.5.4 the way I proposed it. If we build 1.5.4beta and do another distribution for 1.5.4 final, we'd face the same packaging issues IMHO.
