Arch (as currently used by dpkg, anyway) *does* raise an unnecessarily high barrier. Even for those of us who can figure out any version control system within a couple of hours.
The problem is for people like me who don't have their own 24-hour-up servers to host arch repos on (yes, this is common). The normal workflow for this situation (check out from upstream, make local changes, generate patch, submit upstream; update from upstream, merge changes, regenerate patch, submit upstream...) is made rather tedious and more complicated than necessary by arch. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
