* Devtools updates
This was an item from last time that Dan and I completed. We have not yet released a new devtools tarball, as I'd like to wait for the chroot build tools to be complete.

Please don't wait anymore. new devtools help a lot and are ready to use. Right now i have to fix the 32/64 suffix for all chroots by hand and spread it over all chroots. Pending issues/tasks: - checkpkg should also make use of PKGDEST and check if the old pkg already extists there. - integrate a switch to revert the upload/commit/tag/order - force to use checkpkg and namcap in extrapkg - devs have to prompt to go further - later mkchroot scripts Can we bytecompile namcap to have it together with devtools in core/devel without having python there? It would be helpful to have it there as long as we have usual "always staying" chroots. Once we create a new empty chroot for each pkg i think we have to make sure all our tools are usable inside the chroot. Andy.
