Okay Jürgen, I just uploaded a version to debian based on the current svn trunk tip as exposed on the savannah git repo.
Thanks for merging all those earlier patches, or fixing the issues some better way, as the case may be. I've forward ported the remaining patches, and reworked them, and added some more. https://salsa.debian.org/debian/gnu-apl/-/tree/debian/debian/patches The patch headers should describe what's going on for each one. I tried to first describe the issue, then list alternative solutions, then describe the solution used. That way if the particular solution seems bogus you should still have a clean problem description. Patches 0002 and 0005 are debian-specific (sort of, I guess) so you might want to ignore them. Most of these are build script stuff. Cheers, --Barak.
