It's OK with me if the guidelines specify that shared libraries be
stripped.

Ok. I will try to get it to run with 16bpp. Everybody seemed just to run
8bpp. Perhaps I am not current.

Could such programs then have a note telling us about that in the
description? It looks bad when one downloads software and gets a core
dump trying to run it. I think many people are running 16bpp, and
many more will be running it as 2meg become the default -- is
After getting pgp up and running, I only had to try dpkg-buildpackage
about 4 times before I got it right. (That's actually very easy) At each
step of the way the errors were informative enough to get me down the
road.
I got several errors about the failure of getpwd to return a path.

I know one can have a big file containing customization for all the X apps,
but I'd like to be able to modify the app-defaults/xxx file for the xxx
app. without having it being overwritten when a new release of xxx is
available? Is this a bad idea?
YA.

This package installs its libraries in

But all the other aout libraries seem to be in

Unfortunately /usr/i486-linuxaout/lib is not present by default

I need to use the custom boot disks (custom no 1) to start my installation

seem to be in the same
Package: kernel-image
Version: 2.0.5-1
The post-install seems to look for /vmlinuz, and since I don't have one of
those it dies off rather quickly! All my kernels are in the /boot directory,
as this is a partition on my IDE drive, and / is on a SCSI drive (which
would be difficult to boot from).

I have just checked out the bugs web site, and notice that I have quite
a few outstanding reports on setserial. I will try and update it, but
a lot of changes
Ian Jackson and I have had several exchanges by private email
having to do with the dependencies in dpkg, following my bug reports:
#4262 (dpkg-source requires cpio) and #4263 (dpkg-source requires patch).
We have now come to an impasse. Ian suggested if I were to bring this

I have read your bug report regarding setserial... are you
still having problems? As far as I know, no other person
is having similar problems setserial...
If you are still having problems, could you get back to
me within the next few days, otherwise I will consider the
bug report closed.
Thanks
