I haven't looked at openbve at all, but if it's indeed free software and does not have dependencies on non-free software, there shouldn't be much preventing anybody to create a pakckage. Note that you don't have to be a registered Debian developer to create a package: you can find somebody to upload it to Debian if you create a package that suffices Debian's standards. Note that for openbve, a "Request for Package" has already been filed: <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=522854> so at least one other person was interested in getting a package at some time. cheers -- vbi -- I personally encourage kids to smoke - it's about the only time they get outdoors. -- JerryMouse in news.admin.net-abuse.email
