Import Debian changes 5e4-1debian/5e4-1
scm (5e4-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release.
* debian/control: Require at least version 3a5 of slib.
* debian/postrm: New file to remove /usr/lib/scm/implcat and
/usr/lib/scm/slibcat upon purge. (Closes: #455124). Thanks to Kumar
Appaiah for the fix.
* debian/control (Architecture): Add armel and armeb. (Closes: #408792).
* debian/rules (install): Don't use -s when installing. dh_strip should
be sufficient, and this should make the nostrip build option work.
(Closes: #438004).
* continue.h: Repeat change from 5e1-2.
* xgen.scm: Repeat change from 5e2-4.
* scm.1: Repeat change from 5e2-4.
* build.scm: Repeat change from 5e3-5.
