Although this package is not in Debian, and nothing in Debian breaks (TTBOMK) because of this, strictly technically speaking it is a release-critical bug that we'd like to fix for squeeze. It is a legitimate thing to source GNUstep.sh in maintainer scripts and init scripts, but if the sogo package needs to do this, it is an indication that it is not compliant with the Debian Policy. (Nevertheless, the bug is still there -- gnustep-make is not required to be installed on a typical end user GNUstep workstation and the scripts in gnustep-common ought to work on their own.) We'll move this script from gnustep-make to gnustep-common where it belongs. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
