I've written a script gen-binNMU-request.py (see svn) to generate these lines from: http://pkg-ocaml-maint.alioth.debian.org/build_order.txt It can undoubtedly be improved. Here are some shortcomings and remarks: * I could not find a script-friendly way to easily determine whether a package is already built with 3.10.1 or not, so the script as it is now generates a binNMU request for ALL the packages listed in the file given in argument. I guess one just has to remove the already-built packages from build_order in order to forget them for binNUM. * Some packages have multiple dependencies; I hope several dep-wait lines can follow a binNMU line. * I use rmadison (as suggested in the wiki page zack mentioned) to determine the binNMU number. * The build_order.txt file should probably be updated. If I trust: http://pkg-ocaml-maint.alioth.debian.org/debian-ocaml-status.html the packages bibtex2html, camlp5, findlib, hevea, hlins, ocaml-expat, ocamlweb, ocurl, pcre-ocaml, ulex0.8 are already built with 3.10.1. camlp5, ulex0.8 are not listed in build_order.txt, so I guess this file is not up-to-date... anyway, removing the others from build_order.txt gives the file attached to this mail.
