I made jgroff_1.15-3.1.deb based on groff-1.15. You can get from: deb http://www2.fe.dis.titech.ac.jp/~gotom/debian/ ./ I'm waiting to become Debian Maintainer, so I can't do NMU. Are there anyone who upload these .deb packages instead of me? P.S. I guess jgroff and groff are possibility merge-able. Regards, -- GOTO Masanori
