I had CD where I burned most v2* packages in November 8 (except some old ones
and unfortunatelly also emacs alpha version). I grepped sources and found not
so many packages where DJGPP_MINOR where used (really only some). Of
course I wrote shell script to do that (under Linux).
Perhaps I'll download missing and new packages I don't have and repeat that
(unfortunatelly our local DJGPP mirror is temporary killed due to lack of
disk space so download speed is much lower: <5Kb/sec instead of >200Kb/s.
As the result it will take some time).
After that I can try to patch affected packages, build them and send patches
if success. As I said there are not so many. Of course we still have packages
that are not yet released.
So I hope we could make this "developers nightmare" not so painfull.
