hi
a few weeks ago (september 2) I asked for test packages of apt, and I submitted a patch for synaptic, which has always been broken on x86_64.
Today I found out that the requested test packages already existed and that my patch was not against the latest version of synaptic (though the only important hunk succeeds, so you could still apply it!).
This is because as a reference I was using pages stemming from http://dag.wieers.com/ such as http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/apt/ , which are apparently no longer updated. I can see the newer synaptic package on the mirrors and via apt, but when modifying or playing with rpmforge packages I was used to going to those dag.wieers.com pages: they provided the srpms, test packages, spec file and build logs, all in one handy location.
Is this a script gone bad, or are these pages really intended to stay out of sync with the actual repo? If the latter, beyond recommending you remove them all to avoid confusion: I found test packages on eg http://packages.sw.be/apt/ , but are the build logs still available somewhere?
