Hi all,
The first thing is : sorry if I write to the wrong mailing-list.
My problem is : I'm a new user of Mac os X / Fink, but I come from the
linux world (actually I'm still in it), and we use Debian at work. We
have a few open-source (mostly python) packages available on our website
(http://www.logilab.org) and most of them are under GPL license. We
usually provide, for each project, a source package, and generally also
a debian package.
One of our project which is called "pylint" is now available in
debian/unstable, and I'd like to make it also available for fink users.
I've made a "pylint.info" file (and a logilab-common.info for the
package pylint depends on). I'm currently testing them. All fink steps
seem to be ok (validation / build / installation). So my question is :
what should I do know ? Should I submit by ".info" files in the
Package Submission Tracker and wait until someone gives his approval ?
Yes, and if nothing happens for a while, send a message to this list reminding people about it.
The other question is "If all is ok, will I be the official maintainer ? Can it be someone else ?"
You can if you want to, or someone else can, too. It's really up to you.
I don't know the real amount of work required when you're a package maintainer. I assume it depends on the package complexity (mine being quite simple ...).
Right.
I could not find answers in the FAQ.
It doesn't come up that frequently!
Any help / advise would be appreciated. (In case fink-devel is not the right place to ask this, where should I ask it ?)
Cheers, Adrien.
