I've been working to get d-rats packaged for Debian (and Ubuntu). I finally have a candidate package and have asked for review by the debian community. I've also placed the package in my PPA, so anyone interested can check it out.
https://launchpad.net/~sconklin/+archive/hampackages/+packages D-Rats is a chat, file transfer, and mapping program for use with D-Star radios. More information here: http://d-rats.danplanet.com/ I was helped a lot by the upstream maintainer Dan Smith, and by the previous packaging work that had been done by Mike Heitmann. Dan folded a number of changes back into the upstream code to help make this work. If you're interested, please check it out and let me know if you find anything broken. Functionality to send files in winlink formats does not work because it relied on a binary executable used for file compression, which is difficult to build and for which the source code license and copyright are unclear. I don't think many Linux users will miss that functionality. 73, Steve, AI4QR The Debian source package is available here: http://www.ai4qr.com/debian/
