Hi Sjors, I wanted to let you know, that I'm packaging Relion as an official Debian package. As such it will be part of the DebianMed blend and hopefully already be available in the upcoming jessie release. See the Relion-* entries at the project page http://blends.debian.org/med/tasks/bio It will also be available in the Qlustar 9.0 release. Qlustar is a Debian/Ubuntu derivative designed for clustering (HPC/Storage/Cloud).
There are two immediate points/questions that have come up during the packaging process: a) Your official download page http://www2.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/groups/scheres/download_relion.html asks for registration. In Debian, there is an automated process that scans for new package versions on the upstream (your) websites or repositories. What page or other mechanism do you suggest for this purpose that will circumvent the need for registration? b) It would be nice if the Relion project had a publicly available version control repository for its source code like e.g. on github. That way it would be very simple for us and others to post patches if necessary and you could then easily integrate them. Do you have any plans for this? If you need help on this, I'd be happy to assist you. The repository, from which the debian packages are built, is publicly available at http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-med/relion.git Best regards, Roland ---- Roland Fehrenbacher, PhD Founder/CEO Q-Leap Networks GmbH Tel. : +49(0)7034/277620 EMail: [email protected] http://www.q-leap.com / http://qlustar.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
