problems with testing distribution
Hello, some time ago I have uploaded a new xmgr package (4.1.2-6). The update-excuses file on ftp-master tells me, that this version will be installed if it does not depend on other buggy packages. As far as I can see, xmgr-4.1.2-6 does not depend on any buggy package but it is still not installed into woody. What is wrong?

Re: [users] Re: Where's lame
It can be debianised, but it can't be included in debian, since it can't be legally redistributed in binary form. The lame tar.gz includes a debian/ directory. So its only a # dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot away. deb http://lly.org/~rcw/private/lamer/ ./ This I didn't know of. I believe rcw still maintains this, I have it commented out, since I dont use lame anymore. This would be a more appropriate question for debian-user, but now that you mention it, what do you use ?

I've rechecked the dependencies and they do seem to be indeed satisfied. I do not know the answer.
