Done :). Hello, thanks for the info, Version 3.6 of greed: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/g/greed/greed_3.6-1.dsc http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-games/greed.git This new version has a problem: The license has been changed from BSD-like to GPL v2, but upstreamer forgot to update the file greed.spec. I contacted him, and he said that he will correct the file. In the mean time, I have removed greed from: https://wiki.debian.org/Games/Sponsors/Queue Cheers. -- Josué M. Abarca S.

Ahh, does he have permission to change the license? IIRC ESR isn't the main copyright holder of greed, just the current maintainer of it. I'll look at the updated package some time in the next week. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

The new version has already been imported into my git repo[0], but I still need to do a re-check of the package. Sadly I have been busy with another package since then. I hope to get some time to finish the work the next week (maybe the Thursday). [0] http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-games/greed.git (Sorry for my English) -- Josué M.
