Re: statically linked version of genpkglist and gensrclist ?

Hi, Jeff:
My situation is that I need the genpkglist/gensrclist in Debian (my apt 
repository server). But the  librpm in sarge and sid is 4.0, however, 
the apt-0.5.15cnc6-1.1 needs librpm 4.3 or 4.2, I think. So I am not 
able to compile genpkglist/gensrclist in Debian sarge.
Well, I found a solution, actually I use statifier in RedHat 9 to 
produce the statically linked genpkglist/gensrclist, and it works in 
sarge. Although the apt is apt-0.5.15cnc3. But it's enough for me.

Thanks again.
Steven.
