I just submitted a email on this which I think answers the point. I worry that it is way off-topic for this list though. The summary is that Debian is Autotools/Automake focussed and any other build is a problem for them. I think this is sad, but it is Debian's privilege to be dictatorial on this for the Debian repository. -- Russel. ============================================================================= Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.win...@ekiga.net 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: rus...@winder.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
