Hi, sorry for dropping off but my irc died. What I mean is that you deleted the binary. I agree that installing it might not be a good idea, but you do not need to remove the file from the repository. Not installing the binary does not require removing the binary from the source. -- Saludos, Felipe Sateler _______________________________________________ Pkg-javascript-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-javascript-devel
