Just pointing out though that the Debian package doesn't require a new version of liblocale-gettext-perl. I just got bit by this bug setting up a dev ikiwiki box on a mixed stable/testing box. -- [[Adam]] > The Debian package has this: > > Suggests: [...], liblocale-gettext-perl (>= 1.05-1), [...] > > --[[JoshTriplett]]
