This may concern dosemu users that use Debian.

If you want 1.3.3 in Etch, please test the package from experimental.
Sooner is better.

Report any success stories and/or bugs to 352100@bugs.debian.org

See http://bugs.debian.org/352100 for more information.


Thanks,
	dam

Hi Dam,

Thanks for the "call for help".  I appreciate that.  However, allow me
to add this:

Bugs reports against the version in "Debian experimental" are welcome in
separate reports, not all on 352100.

Reasons to want something newer than dosemu 1.2.2 in Debian are welcome
to 352100-quiet@bugs.debian.org so with the "-quiet" added.

But, maybe it is better to forget 1.3.3 and focus on 1.4.x.  Everyone is
most welcome to help the upstream dosemu development team [1] with
getting 1.4.x ready for a stable upstream release [2].  Please help with
solving the upstream bugs [3].

[2]: http://dosemu.sourceforge.net/stable/
[3]: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=457447&group_id=49784&func=browse

Thanks,

Bart Martens

I don't know when 1.4 will be out, but the code in the subversion
repository is much better the 1.2.2 and the code in experimantal.

If 1.4 is not ready for etch, I vote for the code in the subversion
repository, but that decision is left to Bart Oldeman, as he is
responsible for the code.

Some of the above mentioned bugs are gone, but there no notice, that
they are resolved.
