These packages have been building up in ftp://puffin.external.hp.com:/pub/debian-hppa-newlibc/ though I haven't really announced the existence of this archive. At this point I have replaced my entire system with new binaries, and the newlibc archive is in fact more complete and up-to-date than the original one, so I would like to remove or archive the old one and switch to using this one exclusively. So, I've moved the old one to /pub/debian-hppa-oldlibc, and the new one to /pub/debian-hppa. I believe Matt Taggart is putting together a new base system tarball using these new packages (we now have almost all of the relevant parts of the Debian 'base' section built). I've been uploading NMU-versioned source packages (just the .diff.gz and .dsc) of any packages that have required significant source changes to /pub/debian-hppa-source. This does not include packages that need our versions of config.{guess,sub}, however. I haven't had time to submit the changes to the maintainers yet but I'll try to get it done this coming week. -- dhd@linuxcare.com, http://www.linuxcare.com/ Linuxcare. Support for the revolution.
