Can I find documentation somewhere what kind of information is needed,
and how to obtain it? I found [1] but there is no mention of
dependencies of the SRU package there. I am willing to help, I guess I
could try and build fpc on all the previous Ubuntu releases, as well as
the rdependent packages? Is this best done after it is synced in Jaunty?

I have problems with building lazarus in a pdebuild environment, because
the clean rule that is run before the package is put in the jail
involves too much for my system. Is there a better approach than using
pdebuild?

Does anybody see any problem with the licenses mentioned in a previous
comment [2]?

Is there a good example of an SRU bug which involved as much as this
bug, so that I have an idea of how this should be handled?
