If you haven't been able to boot, ask on debian-user for
a boot disk image. Several of our people have made one for
NCR. I'd help but I am away from the office with no access to
Linux.

Many .3t manual pages have .so requests like
.so SomePage.3t
instead of
.so man3/SomePage.3t
making the manual pages unusable.

OK, so we've decided to have packages put their Emacs startup stuff in
a directory, with one file per package.
The directory obviously ought to go in /etc, and the files made
conffiles, so that the sysadmin can reconfigure things.

I'm shortly going to release experimental versions of dpkg and hello.
They'll use the new source package format, which hasn't settled down
yet, so they ought to go in project/experimental.

Hi Everyone,
Seems that everyone having weird SCSI errors? Well, I too are getting some,
but I'm not sure if it's the CD that's stuffed or the kernel... Here's a

The problem with this approach is that it breaks everything that assumes
that make is the GNU make - for instance, the kernel. And probably several
debian.rules files.
It would probably be a fair assumption to say that make, under Linux, is
GNU make: the average user would have this

If the files there really depend on each other, then it may be nice
to require that each .el file contains

files will just use
(require 'site-start-xxx)

Compiling and installing the compress source found on ftp.inria.fr I get a

how it's useful to have both. :-)

Add 'epoch:' to the front of the version. The epoch has to be a
number. For example:
$ dpkg --compare-versions '2' gt '3'
$ echo $?
1
$ dpkg --compare-versions '1:2' gt '3'
$ echo $?

need to if you want to use locales.
Perhaps this package needs higher priority.
Agreed. IMHO it should be 'standard'. If you don't live in the US, a
