To enter into the main Ubuntu repository, the package have to be reviewed and sponsored by an official* debian* "developper". Only him will be authorized to upload to debian repos (then will automatically be ported to ubuntu). As, Leo is a "simple" python module (I mean only python coded and just one entry point), I would be glad to start as a Debian "maintainer". I don't know yet exactly what are debian degree of expectation neither delay we could expect. Just having a quick look at other python projects, I think most of the work will be at the beginning to restructure a bit Leo repo. As I said before, I think it would be better to move dist, doc and examples to the root directory. Maybe it's not even necessary. When this part will be done, I think that maintenance would be very easy to do for new releases, mostly add an entry to a changelog. I'm actually working in parallel on Eric IDE packaging, it's mostly update and adapt previous work (I learned a lot from it !). When it will be done (soon), I think I'll contact debian python apps team <https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/PythonAppsPackagingTeam> to ask for a sponsor and upload. I'll ask them what they think of Leo's code and my packaging and we'll know better what to do and hopefully get helped. It's pure python, using git tools. It should work if git is installed, > but try it and see ;-) > Yes I thought that all the nsis magic was on it but apparently not ;) I found that makensis builder was able to run on linux (apt-get install nsis ;) so I'll play a little bit with it after my actual rpm tests. So basicaly, make-leo does some cleaning, list files to include to source tarball and zip it, isn't it ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
