Yes, the metaserver was down temporarily due to a botched remote upgrade to
Debian sarge...

If you're going to upgrade remotely, at least do it by running screen on a
desktop machine, instead of ssh'ing from your laptop that occasionally shuts
down... :)

Problem with autogen.sh

There is a problem with autogen.sh
It is requesting automake-1.7 or automake-1.4, but I am using automake-1.8.
So the script fails and screams in agony.

I suggest to correct the following line:
___
automake_progs="automake-1.7 automake-1.4"
___

to
___
automake_progs="automake-1.7 automake-1.4 automake-1.8"
___

Any comment ?

Regards,
	LT-P

Have you tested this change and verified that it works?  Many automake
scripts are not upwards-compatible.

I've recently tested the scripts with various versions of automake, a 
patch is being prepared.

Results so far:
automake1.4: does not work anymore
automake1.5: does not work
automake1.6: make distcheck fails, 'normal' make works

Of course.
I compiled gnocatan-server-console and gnocatanai with it. Worked perfectly.
I didn't compiled any graphical gnocatan app with it, because my gnome development
toolkit is broken, but it works with my other projects.

Wanna get laid tonight? You can!


There is this free date site filled with a bunch of nymphos.

No flowers, no walk on the beach, just meet up for sex :)

There are also some people who want serious relationships though
So if you want a long-termer, or a one-nighter, you got it ;)

Whatever floats your boat pretty much!

Debian package

Hi all,

Now that Debian Sarge has been released (woohoo!) it is time for me to 
retire as Debian package maintainer for gnocatan. It's been great fun 
over the years, but it is now time for fresh blood. Are there any Debian 
developers on this list who would like to become the primary maintainer? 
If not, I will just go through the regular Debian orphan/adoption 
procedure. The package is quite popular and I am confident someone will 
pick it up. Thanks again!

Cheers,
Jeff

Re: Debian package

Hi Jeff,

Thank you for your work over the years, it was great.

I am not a debian developer, but I'm planning to become one.  I would
gladly take over the package, but would obviously need a sponsor for
that.  Would you still be willing to do that, or should I post an RFS to
debian-mentors?

Thanks again,
Bas

Hmm, didn't Jeff rope something like three or four of us into being
uploaders on the package? :)  I don't think sponsorship should be a problem.

Debian package


Hi Bas,

You are supremely qualified, and would be a great asset to Debian. As
Steve said, it's easy to find sponsors, and I'm happy to be one if
you'd like. I have two conditions before handing over the package.

1) This doesn't consume effort you'd otherwise spend on upstream 
Gnocatan work. Relatively speaking, if Debian Developers are a dime 
a dozen, an active Gnocatan author is worth at least $1.50.

2) You have to take over before August. By take over I mean both
starting Debian's New Maintainer process (which is slow) and uploading
the package at least once using a sponsor.

If that sounds good to you, the package is yours. Otherwise we'll
bring in some truly fresh blood. :)

Cheers,
Jeff
