I suppose these aren't "standard" because they aren't included with Make. GMSL is the name given to this project by the upstream author because he feels that these are the thing that SHOULD have been standard. I agree that this name is inaccurate, but should we be editorializing on the naming of upstream software? Standard or not, I find this library useful, and I think it's worthy for inclusion into Debian. Thoughts? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
