That isn't possible in Debian, to keep embedded libraries. At least, this would be a very bad practice, and someone could send a bug report complaining about it (and it would be just right...). So I would like to avoid it if possible (I'm quite sure it will). Also, we can't tell if eXtplorer wont work with the new version of php-text-diff without checking by ourselves. So I think best would be to just try. Have you seen a difference of API between the old and the new version of php-text-diff? If there is a compatibility issue with the new php-text-diff, I think it is fine to ask upstream to fix it, he has been responsive so far, so it should be fine. Soren, can you confirm / deny this with php-text-diff? That would save us some headaches! > I could comaintain/upload extplorer and libjs-extjs right now. That's great! Do you want me to put both libjs-extjs and extplorer in collab-maint git, instead of my own Git repo? Do you have an account on Alioth? If you don't, you should create one. Thanks again, Roland, for your interest in these packages, that is really helpful! Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
