\| \| \| \| \|	RFC 2822 obsoleted RFC 822 in April 2001. It's good to keep up with the times.
*	Indent directory structure.	P. J. McDermott	2012-02-22	1	-31/+32

*	Update to Linux-libre 3.2.4.	P. J. McDermott	2012-02-07	1	-1/+1
\| \| \| \| \| \|	Note that since the procedure doesn't even use Linux-libre yet (and doesn't make a bootable system), this really has no effect on the system.
*	Fix hyperlink to Linux-libre 3.1.6.	P. J. McDermott	2012-02-07	1	-1/+1
\| \| \| \| \|	I previously used a path that pointed to the latest version of Linux-libre, which has of course changed since I wrote the procedure.

\| \|
* \|	Simplify build file with theoretical "opkhelper".	P. J. McDermott	2012-01-19	1	-11/+7
\|/ \| \| \| \|	The build helper software package will be called "opkhelper" and will provide scripts inspired by Joey Hess's "debhelper" for Debian.

\| \| \| \| \| \|	The language may not be very clear, but its the most precise way I can imagine to describe this fairly advanced topic in software package management.

\|
*	Update source package format specification.	P. J. McDermott	2012-01-16	1	-37/+9
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	The multiple/split binary package problem is solved by proposals 2 and 3 and by making the 'build' file a makefile. I can't make proposal 1 (with a separate 'build' file for each binary package) work in an intuitive way.
*	Fix misspelling of "MPFR".	P. J. McDermott	2012-01-14	1	-1/+1
