I originally intended to do a couple of quick cleanups in dpkg's bugs list - but it turned out to be a larger task :) So I'm NOT going to send this to [EMAIL PROTECTED] because there are way too many 'close' commands for a non-maintainer to do - I'm leaving it up to you. So, someone should resend the above commands to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . I hope this is useful. BTW I almost completed writing of dpkg-divert manual page, but then I noticed that the 'description' section is quite empty. Does anyone have any idea what should be put there? Please CC: all replies to me personally, I'm not subscribed to any -dpkg mailing lists. Thank you. -- enJoy -*/\*- don't even try to pronounce my first name
