Hi, I've been talking to Pascal in private mail, and just checked the
list. I just uploaded the debian directories for everything to

http://www.raspberryheaven.net/~hannibal/debs/debian_dirs/

They need a lot of work (proper copyright files, better descriptions in
debian/control, dependancies checked, especially Build-Depends) but they
work well enough...

One note, I haven't built libgnome2-print-perl in the last batch I did
because 0.5 still uses Glib::PkgConfig (should be ExtUtils::Pkgconfig)
CVS is fixed, so I'm waiting for 0.6 before I package it.

muppet, you might want to use these to apply to CVS.
