-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 What follows is the first of many programs I will be packaging in the next several days, weeks, and months. At my company <http://where2getit.com/> we are currently making a push to streamline our software development/maintenance/deployment by tunneling it all through the Debian packaging system. I will be maintaining internal Debian package sources that will contain Debian packages of all the software my company currently uses. This will allow us to easily set up production, testing, and development systems simply by pointing apt-get to our internal Debian sources with different distributions tailored for our different environments. The software we will be packaging includes not only free software not currently part of Debian, but all the proprietary software my company develops for internal use. In the process of debianizing the free software we use, we would like to see these packages added to Debian in order to give back to the community.
The first of these is the String::Random Perl Module available on CPAN. I have packaged this as libstring-random-perl. I packaged it using debhelper >> 3 and it passes through lintian with no errors. I would love for a sponsor/mentor to check out this package and if all is well upload it to Debian or let me know what I did wrong. You can find it located in http://paulbaker.net/debian/dists/pbaker/main/binary-i386/interpreters/ or just point apt-get to 'deb http://paulbaker.net/debian pbaker main' and 'deb-src http://paulbaker.net/debian pbaker main' - --Paul Baker "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -- Benjamin Franklin, 1759 GPG Key: http://homepage.mac.com/pauljbaker/public.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (Darwin) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE89XsfoxmRVfL3nlsRAujfAJ48ntE5Lr4WrNvv2TFEAoLxzViJkgCfVYpl P9wp8JAJ+r1aFgepyZZN8fA= =+cJb -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
