All,
I had gotten started on updating the Debian packageing for Fidogate,
with the eventual intent of getting it back into Debian, but ended up
having to take a bit of a break because the system I was doing the package testing on decided it didn't want to work anymore... I'm putting another system together for doing testing but in the mean time I decided I'd make changes in how the package gets built.
I had been able to get the programs updated to the current version in
CVS (v4.4.11) & I had an operational node running using those programs. Installs, however, were still broken: missing directorys, it still installing an old version of the config files, etc. Since I need to do changes anyway now that v4.0 of Debian (Etch) has been released, I've
decided to update the packageing using the more current standards; need
to do that in any case, in order to possibly get the package back in to
the Debian distribution.
File announcements of in-progress files will be in the usual File Announcment echos; & if no one has problems with the idea, I can have any such posted here as well... They will be available from my system in the i386 & source (and perhaps, amd64) sub-directories as follows:
http://ftn.rocasa.us/files/ftn/apps/fidogate/debian/
ftp://ftn.rocasa.us/ftn/apps/fidogate/debian/
They will also be available for FREQ from my system via POTS,IBN, etc; and I will be using the following magics for current versions of them: FGDEBX86 & FGDEBSRC (& possibly, later, FGDEBA64). (Note that right now
they only point to old versions...)

Oh sweet! :) I installed Debian 4 on my Sun Ultra 5 yesterday so this
should be a hoot :)

I did have an updated archive online, but I found some more problems
with it, so I took them back off... I'll put something back online when
I have a better package...
