Réf. : Re: [distcc] distcc on sgi/irix

[Daniel.Biehle at sanofi-synthelabo.com]

Dear Martin,

      Everything has been done and the new tar file is available at :
http://dbrain.free.fr/projects/packages/distcc/        (the name of the
file is now distcc-2.11.1.tardist).

      The COPYING file as well as other files such as README, AUTHORS, NEWS
and reporting-bugs-txt has been added (will be installed in the
/usr/local/share/doc/distcc directory). Man pages have also been added.

      I didn't need to make any change for distcc to compile.
      Please accept my apologies for the missing files and my too bad
english ;o) (and also this email indented by Lotus Notes ;)

Daniel.

That's great!  Thankyou.

Can I ask you to do a couple of things:

 - Put the version number into the tarfile name so that it is obvious
   to people who are downloading it.  In particular I want to avoid
   people in the future accidentally downloading old versions....

 - To comply with the terms of the GNU GPL under which distcc is
   licenced, you *must* include a copy of the GPL in your installable
   package.  (For example into /usr/local/share/doc/distcc/COPYING.)

I would prefer if you could include the manpages and other
documentation as well.

Did you need to make any changes other than just compiling it?

I'd be happy to add a link if you could address these couple of
issues.
