</div>Did you contact the debian maintainer of squeak-vm about this?<br>

</div>As far as I know the changes are very little and inclusion in the main squeak<br>
vm is progressing...<br>
<div class="Ih2E3d"></div></blockquote><div><br>great, as I said I am not very familiar with squeak/etoys and how it is best packaged. <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

</div>Is the patch so low quality or why do you think its not ready for Debian?</blockquote><div><br>I am not sure about it's quality. The fact that it is not a bugfix but adds a new interface<br>to evince which is not upstream and hence may change in the future makes it an extra burden.<br>
<br>The patch can be extracted from sugar's jhbuild system, evince-olpc package uses this patch and is<br>based on an evince from 2007 IIRC. My questins on the evince list a month or so ago about the issue<br>were not answered<br>
see this thread for more info.<br><br><a href="http://www.mail-archive.com/evince-list@gnome.org/msg01001.html">http://www.mail-archive.com/evince-list@gnome.org/msg01001.html</a><br><br>anyway evince and squeak are non-core sugar things the rest of Sugar and activities can be packaged<br>
independently of these upstreams and stiull get a prestty functional system Naturally when 3rd party non-sugar<br>apps are dealt with the pace is slowed down depending on upstream schedules and maintainers' availability.<br>
