Nice to hear. I've put a request if the NM people could perhaps merge these patches. If there are interest from the Archlinux community i will continue with that. > I've looked at the patches to support archlinux.

This is exactly what i do. I have my Makefile.am Configure.in. No Makefile.in or Configure. But to be able to make a patch that patches the official release i then rerun autogen.sh and regenerate the .in etc. And finaly i diff my autoconfed version against the release. Then because we have newer autotools a lot changes(?). But my original work is only a few tens of kilobytes. Even though the patch weights in around one megabyte. (Most of it is "air") I have not found out a better way to make a patch against a released version. Pointers appreciated :-) /Tor _______________________________________________ arch mailing list [email protected] http://www.archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
