chris at d10:~$ tar xvf /storage/distfiles/elilong.tar.gz
elilong/elilong.SlackBuild
elilong/README
elilong/doinst.sh
elilong/elilong.info
elilong/slack-desc
chris at d10:~$ sbolint elilong/
sbolint: elilong checks out OK
I wonder if the submission system isn't processing your latest
submission? Perhaps an earlier (faulty) submission hasn't been properly
replaced by the latest submission (which "checks out OK").
