      * New Debian and RedHat rpm packaging scripts.
      * Added a description to `build/package/debian/README.Debian' on
        how to add a new package.   It's not that complicated so it
        should be a simple thing to add a new package, even for some
        with little or no experience with RPMs or DEBs.
      * When searching for the Oracle client libraries, I added the
        directories `/usr/lib/oracle/*/client/lib' and
        `/usr/include/oracle/*/client' - as these are the paths that the
        RPMs install into.
      * I added the packages `root-plugin-krb5' and
        `root-plugin-oracle'.
      * The library `libXMLIO' is in `libroot'.
      * The package `root-plugin-xml' contains the XML parser.
      * I fixed an cosmetic error in `build/misc/root.m4'.  The
        definition of `ROOT_PATH' should be quoted, otherwise aclocal
        will complain.
      * In the top-level `Makefile' I pass an additional argument to
        `makecintdlls' - namely `$(ROOTCINTTMP)'.  In `makecintdlls' I
        use that argument to make the various dictionaries for
        `lib...Dict.so'.   Originally, the script used plain `rootcint'.
        However, as `rootcint' may not be in the path yet, or the one in
        the path may be old, this failed.  Hence, I use what we know is
        there - namely the newly build `rootcint_tmp'.  BTW, what are
        these shared libraries, and where do they belong?  I guess they
        are specific to ROOT, and not used by plain `CINT'.  For now, I
        put them in `libroot'.
      *  Made the two `virtual' packages `root-db-client' - provided the
        DB plugins, and `root-fitter' provided by `root-plugin-minuit'
        and `root-plugin-fumili'.  Note, the virtual package
        `root-file-server' provided by `root-rootd' and `root-xrootd'
        already existed in the previous patch.
      * Note, I added the directory `build/package/debian/po' which is
        for translations of DebConf templates.  DebConf is Debians very
        advanced package configuration interface.   It presents the user
        with a set of questions in some sort of `GUI' based on how much
        the user would like to change.  These `dialogs' can be
        translated quite easily.  As an example, I translated the
        questions used by the `ttf-root-installer' package into Danish.
        I'm sure someone can translate them into German, French,
        Italien, Spanish, and so on.
