[acme@brinquedo b]$ diff -uNr 2.4.15 2.5.0 diff -uNr 2.4.15/Makefile 2.5.0/Makefile --- 2.4.15/Makefile Thu Nov 22 17:22:58 2001 +++ 2.5.0/Makefile Fri Nov 23 04:23:44 2001 @@ -1,7 +1,7 @@ VERSION = 2 -PATCHLEVEL = 4 -SUBLEVEL = 15 -EXTRAVERSION =-greased-turkey +PATCHLEVEL = 5 +SUBLEVEL = 0 +EXTRAVERSION =
