Hi,

Thanks for the suggestions regarding delivery status.  I am now trying
to build from CVS and note a couple of problems.


When trying to build a Debian package from it but I get the following
failure:

jade -o doc/alligata/alligata.tex -t tex -d
   /usr/lib/sgml/stylesheet/dsssl/docbook/nwalsh/print/docbook.dsl
   doc/alligata/alligata.tmp
echo Check `dirname doc/alligata/alligata.xml`/`basename
   doc/alligata/alligata`.log for errors
Check doc/alligata/alligata.log for errors
cd `dirname doc/alligata/alligata.xml` && : `basename
   doc/alligata/alligata`.tex >/dev/null || true
cd `dirname doc/alligata/alligata.xml` && : `basename
   doc/alligata/alligata`.tex >/dev/null || true
cd `dirname doc/alligata/alligata.xml` && : `basename
   doc/alligata/alligata`.tex >/dev/null
cd `dirname doc/alligata/alligata.xml` && dvips -q -o `basename
   doc/alligata/alligata`.ps `basename doc/alligata/alligata`.dvi
dvips: ! DVI file can't be opened.
make[1]: *** [doc/alligata/alligata.ps] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/andrew/kannel-cvs'
make: *** [build] Error 2

Is there some software I have yet to install on my build machine which
is failing to build the .dvi file used as input to dvips?  Or is there
something wrong with the debian/rules file?

I note there is no "Build-Depends: ..." in the control file.  I guess
there should probably be one which includes a minimum of "libxml2-dev",
and probably also jade, openjade, tetex-base, tetex-bin, tetex-extra and
texinfo.  Should I work it out and submit a patch?  Who to?

Regards,
					Andrew.
