Hi we just added two new architectures to the Debian archive. Everybody please welcome kfreebsd-i386 AKA GNU/kFreeBSD i386 kfreebsd-amd64 AKA GNU/kFreeBSD amd64 Note that this enables porter NMUs for those two. In case you have a bug with a patch waiting for your package that has to do with one of them, please either fix it soon or expect a porter NMU to be done soon. The two new architectures (well, better named OS i think, as they use a different kernel) are available in unstable and experimental. We do start out empty, importing only what is needed to get a buildd running. For this reason you will not be able to directly use it immediately. Please wait until they catched up, which I expect to happen soon. -- bye, Joerg However, given my track record WRT editorial changes to foundation documents, people ought to be examining this draft _before_ the vote rather than afterwards :) <87d5byftj1.fsf@glaurung.internal.golden-gryphon.com>
