hello. I'm trying to update the version of gambit in debian, could someone help me? What's the difference between the normal tarball and the devel one? (as shown at http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~gambit/download/gambit/v4.7/source/ ) Also, would you mind telling me if the patches at http://sources.debian.net/src/gambc/4.2.8-1.1/debian/patches are now fixed in the tarball?

Finally, how much has the build process changed since 4.2? debian currently has to compile part of gambit-c, then use that part to compile the rest.
