Dear Fink developers,

I have added a Distribution field to fink packages which involve  
python or perl.

As some of you will recall, we are sharing files between fink's 10.4  
and 10.5 distributions.  Also, fink's 10.5 distribution does not  
contain python 2.3, perl 5.8.1, or perl 5.8.4.

The added lines

Distribution: (%type_pkg[python] = 23) 10.4

and

Distribution: (%type_pkg[perl] = 581) 10.3, (%type_pkg[perl] = 581)  
10.4, (%type_pkg[perl] = 584) 10.3, (%type_pkg[perl] = 584) 10.4

handle this, and allow the same file to be used in the 10.4 and 10.5  
distributions.  (The clauses involving 10.3 are not strictly  
necessary, but will be convenient for those maintainers who wish to  
use identical files in the 10.3 and 10.4 trees.)

Further information can be found in the packaging manual, in the newly- 
added documentation for the Distribution field.
