Well, the goal was not to setup a new repository but to share the source code. :-) Actually, now, Andreas is kindly hosting the debian-science source package in Alioth CDD resources (https://alioth.debian.org/projects/cdd/). You can actually build the latest version of the packages in the following way (anonymous access): $ svn checkout svn://svn.debian.org/svn/cdd/projects/science/trunk $ cd trunk/debian-science $ svn-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -us I have updated the prospective packages. Thanks to Lisandro Damián Nicanor Pérez Meyer, Kevin B. McCarty, Christian Holm Christensen, Riccardo Stagni and Charles Plessy for their feedback that I have taken into account. > > 3) science-physics should definitely recommend root-system once that's > > out of experimental. > > I would certainly second that (as I'm the maintainer of that set of Done. > Some other questions/suggestions > > * I see (though I may have missed it) no mention of GSL - perhaps > that should be added to one of `-statistics', `-mathematics', or > `-physics'. Yes. I am undecided about what to do with the GSL libraries. Maybe should we split the packages in science-* and science-*-dev (as is doing Debian-Med).
