Now I’m confused, Julien.
In the meanwhile I have updated my linkstation (NAS with mipsel architecture) to Debian Lenny with a custom 2.6.30.5 kernel, which means, that my glibc is still too old for forked-firefly, but at least my kernel would work. Now I see, that you, Julien, are the package maintainer of the firefly package (“mt-daapd”, svn-1696) on Debian Lenny. Why didn’t you write a forked-firefly that runs on Lenny? Now you have to maintain Ron’s old code on Lenny and you have a forked-firefly that only a few people can use. I mean, if I were you, I would have written forked-firefly in a way that it can be used on Lenny and become the package maintainer of that forked-firefly instead of Ron’s firefly.
Anyway, it’s your code and your decision. For me the question is: should I upgrade to Squeeze (I’m a bit afraid, because of the mipsel architecture) and just use your forked-firefly or should I try to “downgrade” your code so that it can work on Lenny.
