When can I include my package in stable?

You probably don't want to do this... since a native package has no .diff.gz, the source tarball must contain everything used to generate the set of binary packages you're uploading. On Wed, Sep 05, 2001 at 10:49:51PM +0200, peter karlsson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> spake forth: > Hi! > > How do I get
