Sounds good to me, although I'm not too sure about including actual games with these tasks (e.g. freecol, triplea with java-dev) since I feel they're kind of out of scope? > I think python-dev is relatively simple (it's all about python-pygame, > isn't it ;) ). I'd add python-kivy to that list. One question I have is whether this metapackage is going to install both python2 and python3 modules, or if you'd rather have two separate metapackages. > I'm also going to ask on debian-java for more input about java-dev. liblwjgl-java is the first thing that springs to mind (and you have that already, actually), but unfortunately it looks like the current package in testing isn't fit for release as-is. :( Regards, Vincent P.S. not subscribed to debian-blends, please cc me if debian-devel-games is dropped -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
