Hello, the package has not really been touched for about three years. (The last real upload, a later NMU just changed the package description.) Afaiui apart from the stuff in the bts theses two changes are also needed * build-depend on libglu1-mesa-dev instead of virtual package xlibmesa-glu-dev * run ./configure with --x-includes=/usr/include --x-libraries=/usr/lib Also if it is simply rebuilt it will be built without DGA or VidModeSwitch support even if x11proto-xf86vidmode-dev and x11proto-xf86dga-dev are added to b-d. - ./configure is searching in vain for -lXxf86vm_pic and -lXxf86dga_pic. The old sid package are linked (statically) against these libraries. re-auto-fooing might fix this. But at this point I stopped, since it occured to me that even more hidden issues might exist and adding something like this at short point before release might not be a good idea. Upstream is dead, too. cu andreas -- The 'Galactic Cleaning' policy undertaken by Emperor Zhark is a personal vision of the emperor's, and its inclusion in this work does not constitute tacit approval by the author or the publisher for any such projects, howsoever undertaken.
