so are the individual teams responsible for packaging their own
transports?  when they think they are stable?  or what?

that didn't work.  the cvs tarball doesn't have the macros directory
included. :)  that was my problem there.  i did a cvs checkout of all the
submodules, and therefore i got the macros this time. :)

the pth thing needs to get fixed.  libpth12 is *gone* from debian, both
stable adn unstable. :)  i overrode the dependencies to install... didn't
like it tho. :)

i had some bugginess when i tried to regenerate the .debs for
libetherx1.... it lokoed like it was almost entirely deb-related (aka
something didn't work exactly right...) instead of code bugs.  the code
built fine.

eliot, could i convince you to rebuild libetherx1's deb?  i can't get it
to work here.

stuff looks great so far, guys... keep it coming :)
