Re: [ITP] atool
Packaging looks fine to me, just your setup.hint file has a quoting problem in the ldesc field (single instead of double quotes, double quotes within). I was hoping that by single-quoting the field contents, I'd be able to keep the double quotes within it. The web site isn't explicit about that, but if it's not allowed then I'll switch the quotes. Thanks, Andrew.
