Hi Tom, I was waiting till the packages were actually uploaded to Debian before believing it and letting you know. As it stands, Fabio and I had quite a few meetings, where we agreed that we should upload the ZTK packages in a form more or less based on what schooltool uses at the moment. I updated the site with the policy we agreed will be using: http://pkg-zope.alioth.debian.org/ I've also prepared a number of packages in our company repository and have a buildbot that runs their self-tests: http://packages.vanguardistas.net/pkg-zope-buildbot/waterfall This repository is public and built against debian lenny, feel free to upload the packages to a PPA if you want. So that's the good news, the bad news is: * Basically we'll only be uploading the ZTK packages at the bottom of the dependency tree first, those that have been through the great dependency refactoring. I estimate we'll get up to zope.publisher before hitting serious dependency issues. Unfortunately schooltool needs packages much higher in the dependency chain than that... * Although Fabio has agreed to this policy and has been doing quite a bit of work on the packages he's very busy with his day job and has yet to upload the packages to Debian proper. * There are some test failures in the ZODB (see the buildbot) and such that I don't understand and since we don't use the ZODB, am not inclined to spend a lot of time investigating. Anyway, it'll be a slow process to get these packages uploaded and tested, but hopefully we'll have a rock solid ZTK stack in Debian and Ubuntu at the end of it. > > --Tom > -- Brian Sutherland _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~schooltool-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~schooltool-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
