Ping: Earnie, Cesar, The six packages in question are:-- bash-3.1-MSYS-1.0.11-snapshot.tar.bz2 bzip2-1.0.3-MSYS-1.0.11-snapshot.tar.bz2 diffutils-2.8.7-MSYS-1.0.11-snapshot.tar.bz2 file-4.16-MSYS-1.0.11-snapshot.tar.bz2 findutils-4.3.0-MSYS-1.0.11-snapshot.tar.bz2 gawk-3.1.5-MSYS-1.0.11-snapshot.tar.bz2 None of these are accompanied by source tarballs. I think they should be; indeed for those which are GPL, that's pretty much mandatory. In CVS, I can find:-- bash-3.1 bzip2-1.0.3 diffutils-2.8.7 findutils-4.3 gawk-3.1.5 but conspicuous by its absence:-- file-4.16 So, questions:-- 1) Is the CVS state up to date with your respective source trees? 2) If not, could you please make it so? 3) If yes, would you like to upload the necessary source tarballs? 4) Or, would you like me to check out from CVS, make dist, and do so? 5) What should we do about file-4.16? Especially since... In the `Current Release: msysDTK-1.0.1' collection, I see Chuck's:-- file-4.16-MSYS.tar.bz2 file-4.16-MSYS-src.tar.bz2 which are actually *newer* than the snapshot in the MSYS-1.0.11 technology preview collection, so I'm tempted to just hide this file-4.16-MSYS-1.0.11-snapshot.tar.bz2 Regards, Keith. |
