It certainly would be great, if it could make into Debian. However, that seems to be a trickier thing to do than what I did yesterday (readanysf also has only one author) and most likely it requires more expertise to get everything right. I would be glad to be of any help here, though I think I rather start with proper packages in Launchpad, since that seems more realistic and I also wouldn't want to step on someones toes, who already started working on it. The first goal would be to have working and up-to-date packages of gmerlin-avdecoder and readanysf~ in launchpad. This hopefully would already ease the installation of it a lot. > FYI, here are the libdirs that I have packaged and built using > launchpad.
