Thanks for the idea. I have checked RedHat sources and discovered one difference between patches: bash uses termcap under redhat but should use ncurses under debian. > Many patches have been sent to the maintainers but have not been > released yet. Is there a list of such patches ? Also, when a package needs a patch, we must send patches to real maintainer, but do we wait the updated sources reach the ftp site before uploading the sparc binary ? In fact, I don't know wether I can release a binary package that is not in sync w/ its sources. Eric. -- Eric Delaunay | "La guerre justifie l'existence des militaires.
