the big switch?
I've just returned from a week's holiday, so I haven't read all traffic; but I fail to find information on the big abi switch. However, it seems that 1.5.3 is now [curr]ent, but a lot of TEST/1.5.x packages do not seem to be switched? I assume this, eg, will break badly. Is this an oversight, or anything required from package maintainers? @ cygwin sdesc: "The UNIX emulation engine" category: Base requires: libintl2 _update-info-dir base-passwd version: 1.5.3-1 [..] @ tetex-bin sdesc: "The TeX text formatting system (binaries)."
