When someone posts an ITP to debian-devel he usually gives an URL. But
there's no need to add this information in WNPP, this will only give more
work to already busy people and everybody knows about freshmeat so it's
trivial to find the URL for a particular project/program/package. And you
already have the email of the person who is packaging it, you can
contact him for any question like that.

 I'd rather just let you take it.  You can ftp a tarfile of it from:

 (please, Steve only.  This ISN'T a public server. It's my home computer.)

 wget ftp://bittersweet.inetarena.com/pub/linuxlogo{-deb,_1.0.orig}.tar.gz

 ... this is everything for the debian package, and the original
 pristine sources (I assume.) that I got from ftp.debian.org.  I'll
 leave the line on so you can get it; don't expect blazing speed, it's
 across a 33.6 from the net.

 The last release I made has an error.  I missed installing the rcN.d
 symlinks, so it doesn't get run on startup.  I hope you can fix that.

 I've added an icon and a menu entry, along with a wrapper script so
 there's now a Games/Toys menu that will display the penguin.

 I tried to put this under CVS, but it's not working.  It causes cvs
 to dump core.  I think it's because the files got created under DOS,
 and all have ^M line endings.  I didn't convert it because it would
 change every line of every file, and the diff would be twice as big
 as the pristine sources.

 Have fun, I hope you learn a lot from this.

 There really needs to be a `perl-info' package, with the Perl TeXinfo
 docs in it.  `cperl-mode' in the emacs editors has the ability to
 look up perl functions in the info.  It's indispensable.

 Yes, I should `bug' the maintainer... ;-)

Re: Work-Needing and Prospective Packages for Debian GNU/Linux

1997-12-15 Thread Rainer Dorsch 
I am wondering that NIS+ is not in the list of packages which are not
yet available in Debian. Did nobody ask for it?
