According to Charles Wilson on 2/23/2008 9:08 AM:
| The mktemp package's setup.hint now specifies the "_obsolete" category.
| The package directory has been moved from release/mktemp/ to
| release/_obsolete/mktemp.
|
| What's to do?
|
| I thought about creating a new, empty package with an updated version
| number -- but it's too late now.  Once somebody has updated to the new
| coreutils, if they update using my new empty mktemp, then coreutils'
| mktemp.exe will be deleted. That's no good.

I can bump the version number of coreutils if you want to bump the version
number of mktemp.  But I think we're okay leaving things as they are for
now - no one has complained.

Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
