Just to clarify: I had understood your suggestion, and my answer to it is "I don't think it is practical for users". Think of it as replacing cat, echo, grep and others with "unixutils cat", "unixutils echo", "unixutils grep"... the similarity breaks when we look at the userbase, but for those who do use gbutils...

I don't know what had made me so sure that the link was right and I had to just wait the 6 hours time to see it work. I now also pushed the upstream and pristine-tar branches, as well as the tags. Related to your other email, I updated build-depends and depends so that now all utilities/functionalities are compiled and installed, and introduced a patch fixing a few typos in the previously not installed utilities. Updated package: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/g/gbutils/gbutils_5.6.6 -1.dsc Thanks again! Pietro -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
