Hi all! So there was some good thought provoking discussion on my last thread that led me to do some more research on ways that DDs can easily get to changes Ubuntu has done to their packages so here is what I came up with: * http://people.ubuntu.com/~scott/patches/ has patches for all of the packages changed by Ubuntu. This isn't terribly convenient so packages.qa.debian.org includes links to the patches so for instance, if you go to http://packages.qa.debian.org/a/axiom.html under Patches there is a link to http://people.ubuntu.com/~scott/patches/axiom/ . Since DDs should be pretty familiar with the PTS I think that it should be pretty easy to use. * At http://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTUScience I have set up links under "Ubuntu and Debian Packages" to lists that I have generated that show the differences between Debian and Ubuntu for the science, math, and tex sections. Direct links are: http://tiber.tauware.de/~laserjock/math_list.html http://tiber.tauware.de/~laserjock/science_list.html http://tiber.tauware.de/~laserjock/tex_list.html >From these lists one can easily see what packages have been changed by Ubuntu (22 in math, 26 in science, and 5 in tex) and what packages have been packaged for Ubuntu but not Debian (5 in math, 0 in science, and 4 in tex). If there is something that you would like add to these lists let me know and I will see what I can do.
