Thanks.  I didn't mean to complain about NEWS as much as run the diff by
someone who has been paying attention.  Indeed, I did see triangulation
files and Interrupt.h, and I didn't blink at those.  It was more a
number of with withdrawn files.  In particular the removal of
geos/platform.h jumped out at me as something I didn't expect.

That's probably a bug then; I'll see if it recurs with the imminent
eol-style=lf 3.4.1 tarball.

I'll retry with the fixed release when it comes.  I'm just barely able
delurk long enough to update the package.

Also:
I just noticed there is a new 3.4.0 tarball with a different hash.  It
seems 3 people spoke up about that issue, including the person who deals
with openSUSE packages, and opinion was unanimous about not having two
different distfiles with the same name.
