So, even ubuntu LTS is 1.5 now. No harm in upgrading the website to 1.5. = I don=92t know of any reason to not update and just require 1.5 at this poi= nt. I=92m not a fan of feature chasing dejagnu, but an update every 2-4 ye= ars isn=92t unreasonable. So, let=92s do it this way=85 Any serious and compelling reason to not upd= ate to 1.5? If none, let=92s update to 1.5 in another week or two, if no s= erious and compelling reasons not to. My general plan is, slow cycle updates on dejagnu, maybe every 2 years. LT= S style releases should have the version in it before the requirement is up= dated. I take this approach as I think this should be the maximal change r= ate of things like make, gcc, g++, ld, if possible.
