GAP sources for Debian
----------------------

To generate the tarballs used by Debian you must do the following:

1) Download gap-4rXpY.tar.gz and tools4rXpY.tar.gz from
http://www.gap-system.org/Download/index.html

3) Use the script `tarball' (in the debian directory) as follows:
sh tarball gap-4rXpY.tar.gz tools4rXpY.tar.gz
This script merge the two tarball, split them in three and
remove non-DFSG files, binary files and irrelevant files.

4) you end up with a directory gap with the following tarballs:
gap_4rXpY.orig.tar.gz
gap-gdat_4rXpY.orig.tar.gz
gap-tomlib_1rUpV.orig.tar.gz

5) Please check that the GAP release actually includes new content for gap-gdat
and gap-tomlib before reuploading them to the archive. It is often not the
case and this source splitting allow to take advantage of that, by avoiding
a waste of mirror bandwidth.
