Alex,
Evan's new (working and un-kludged) build of mit-scheme has been
accepted into Jaunty.
He has asked for an "SRU" stable release update, which would add his
mit-scheme into Intrepid.
We've still got the "recommends mit-scheme mit-scheme-doc" in the
thirdparty package.
Worst case, mit-scheme will get installed on Jaunty systems when we
take debathena through that step.
However, the Ubuntu Launchpad Bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/
341832 seems to currently imply that getting that SRU is very
likely. At that point mit-scheme will just work there too.
Simple answer to your query: Yes. Let's leave it in debathena-
thirdparty, and wait for the bug fix to make its way through the
upstream process into our systems.
