I'll have to leave this to Ethan to answer. Dan, I do know that PowerPC can't build now due to lack of pcmcia-modules-2.2.19-pmac bug. Do you think we should NMU pcmcia-cs or somehow workaround that? Do you need my help on that front? Fix was installed today, actually. I'm not fixing some things about the build process of the modules for woody; I'll do to 2.2.x in unstable what I've done to 2.4.x, a little further down the line, which will make PCMCIA easier to build. -- Daniel Jacobowitz Carnegie Mellon University MontaVista Software Debian GNU/Linux Developer -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

As I said, please do bring this sort of thing to the attention of someone who can do something about it. I'm sorry for not following -boot religiously while work has been sucking my life and I've been busy reconstructing the entire rest of the powerpc port.
