Ok, be sure to let me know when you are actually burning these, and
you should tag the source when you do that too. At that point, any
subsequent changes should be 2.1.10.1 or 2.1.11.

Did you make sure these all show up in ./debian/changelog file? If
not, you should.

Actually.

2.2.5 is available AFAIK (or is that only source?). Why not just
stick with that?

Not that I know of. Perhaps we should try to workaround that.
It's a pretty critical/annoying sparc problem.
Eric, have you dealt with the attached silo issues? (Bug#34896)

I have put on ftp.prosa.it/pub/people/paci/silo
a new debian package of silo (0.8.5-4)
there is only the binary packages, and it is there because
I don't want to upload it, until I'm confident it will work
I have made a little hack, and it should now work on Ultra,
but I can't test because I haven't an Ultra: can you test it?
thanks
ciao
