Sounds like the best thing we could do right now is prepare a package for<br>
libetk and/or libelementary.<br>

I'll have some time over the next week to help out a fair bit, but after<br>
that my ability to commit time will dwindle down. Nathan has more time<br>
for this project, but is new to packaging, so my plan is to teach him<br>
fairly quickly so that he can still be useful after I can help less!<br>
<br>
I already maintain a library in Debian, and I understand packaging well.<br>
<br>
If there are any non-library programs that need packaging that aren't yet<br>
packaged, Nathan and I would do well to start there to make sure Nathan<br>
gets the hang of packaging before we tackle a library. Nathan, if you can<br>
find any such programs needing packaging, we can do those first (so long<br>
as it's not covered by what Albin is working on, the "new e17, including<br>
Illume). Note Albin that if you need help, I'm here for you, even on<br>
those!<br>

And in general, for pkg-e-devell, do you have a preference for what<br>
package helper tools you prefer? Do you like git-buildpackage and/or<br>
svn-buildpackage, and if so where do you like to store the repositories?<br>
Do you prefer debhelper to cdbs? I want to make sure that the way we go<br>
about this is most sustainable for co-maintenance.<br>
</blockquote><div><br>I use neither git-buildpackage nor svn-buildpackage, however I prefer using git as VCS. Apart from that, I don't mind much. I'm fine with both cdbs and debhelper.<br> <br>Thanks,<br>Albin<br>
