There we go, I knew this would happen, but I didn't expect it would happen *before* we even have PPA available! :) Please read the announcement. The design of the Debian PPA will be a lot different from what is currently done in Ubuntu. The PPA will share the same pool structure as the rest of the archive, and will be fully part of Debian. They shouldn't be considered only "one developers repository", but really, custom archives for specific purposes. > That's why I think that backport would be a better solution for Debian > stable users getting support for what is in testing/Sid. No it wont. In backports, we will only be able to support a single version of OpenStack, when upstream really is supporting 2. > Yes, I have used Ubuntu PPA:s before Then forget about it, this isn't the same thing. > and it has worked, sort of. > Depending on what time and interest the developer had to support his PPA.

I would strongly suggest that you read the debian-devel archive, and read what has been proposed. Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
