The former is usually very little work (and should be preferred) and the latter is usually only slightly more. Such files waste space in upstream tarballs so they probably would appreciate being notified about that. Once they learn about autotools 'make dist' / 'make distcheck' they can let autotools make the tarballs to prevent sourceless Windows binaries from being accidentally added to them. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-vote-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
