Hi John Most of it follows Jonny's and/or the 0.9.x stuff in the debian archive. The most significant difference is an init script that gets installed for odccm, but if it's used with odccm 0.10.0 it'll always show a fail on startup, odccm has started ok but always returns failure, I've fixed it in svn. I tried some funky stuff to automatically set up start/stop links, but upgrades require some careful planning so I disabled that. Oh and of course my odccm is configured to --enable-legacy. Since we're on this, I'll throw out some ideas for consideration. 1) Some stuff in svn has out of date debian dirs, I think this should either be kept up to date or removed entirely, otherwise it confuses the situation. The deb patches may be better kept somewhere else in svn. 2) There are a few small items in the current deb archive packages that we could put into svn ie small fixes and man pages. I've done some, eg with liborange I think, but if anyone else has the time, inclination and unserstanding to have a quick look this could be useful. Thoughts ?
