Thanks for the remove of the debian-dir. I setup a daily build for ubuntu natty now (for maverick and lucid i don't know how to do because of unmet dependency for libsynthesis). The git-source will be synced to launchpad (i think daily) and then a debian package will be created with the source and the package will be available in a ppa.
PPA: https://launchpad.net/~toabctl/+archive/syncevo Daily build: https://code.launchpad.net/~toabctl/+recipe/syncevolution.recipe automatically cynced source in launchpad: https://launchpad.net/syncevolution Cheers, Tom 2011/1/7 Patrick Ohly <[email protected]> > On Do, 2011-01-06 at 20:23 +0000, Ove Kaaven wrote: > > Den 06. jan. 2011 18:56, skrev Patrick Ohly: > > > On Do, 2011-01-06 at 17:42 +0000, toabctl wrote: > > >> Any reasons why the debian-dir should exist? > > > > > > Ove Kaaven is using it for the Maemo 5 port.
