Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Release 3.0.1 Unofficial Tarballs

[Berndt Josef Wulf]

G'day Johnathan,

Ok, they are forming part of the distribution, but I've never seen and 
obviously never missed them until now.

I didn't create a pkgsrc distribution for version 3.0 since it had other 
problems that needed to be overcome and my working schedule was very tight at 
that time. Hence I'm pretty keen to see this through the door as its been 
awhile since pkgsrc was updated.

I now see that these files are in the SVN repository. Not sure how to deal 
with this as such. Perhaps skip 3.0.1 and release 3.0.2 as the next official 
release?
