Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnu-smalltalk
GNU Smalltalk was not buildable on Lucid and was removed from the Lucid Repostory. I have had a look and thanks to the GNU Smalltalk upstream have created a patch that makes it buildable again.
The problem on my lucid installation was that all testcases failed to execute and that is due an issue with the tests/testsuite script and bash 4.0. Paolo provided me with the necessary sed script to make it work for that version.
I'm attaching the patch, but I also have an updated changelog entry and such for the debian package.

Thanks for the patch. This is now fixed upstream and in Maverick - this upstream change is: http:// git.savannah. gnu.org/ gitweb/ ?p=smalltalk. git;a=commitdif f;h=3ab4dc6e8ed d043ac5567f5a71 0f91025b5325bc
Could you create a new patch (or even better a debdiff targeted for lucid-proposed) based on this change? This may then be eligible for a SRU.
